Underline button text in Swift

Question

I have UIButton. In interface builder I set its title to be \'Attributed\'. How can I make its title to be underlined from code in Swift?

@IBOutlet weak var myBt

This is my solution. And to be honest you probably need this more than one place, so let's create an extension. This is swift 5.0 Cheers :)

extension UIButton {
    func underline() {
        guard let title = self.titleLabel else { return }
        guard let tittleText = title.text else { return }
        let attributedString = NSMutableAttributedString(string: (tittleText))
        attributedString.addAttribute(NSAttributedString.Key.underlineStyle, value: NSUnderlineStyle.single.rawValue, range: NSRange(location: 0, length: (tittleText.count)))
        self.setAttributedTitle(attributedString, for: .normal)
    }
}

And you can use it like this.

    override func viewDidLoad() {
     super.viewDidLoad()
     button.underline()
}
