Trying to set the paragraph styles for an NSTextView. Am I doing something wrong here, or putting the code in the wrong place perhaps..?
I have this code in the subclass of my NSTextView.
This does not affect my text view in any way:
class EditorTextView: NSTextView {
override func drawRect(dirtyRect: NSRect) {
super.drawRect(dirtyRect)
// to do
}
override func awakeFromNib() {
var parastyle:NSMutableParagraphStyle = NSMutableParagraphStyle()
parastyle.lineSpacing = 20
self.defaultParagraphStyle = parastyle
}
}
Expected result: When I start typing into the text view, these styles should have been implemented, unless manually overridden by the user via in app formatting menu items.
Edit: Oh I see. I must apply the styles to the attributed string in text storage, right after the above :
var storagerange = self.attributedString().length
self.textStorage?.addAttribute(NSParagraphStyleAttributeName, value: parastyle, range: NSMakeRange(0, storagerange))
