Wrapping Text in a UITextView Around a UIImage WITHOUT CoreText

Question

Is there a way to wrap text from a UITextView around a UIImage without using CoreText?

I have been playing around with attrib

Answer 1

The short answer is you can't without CoreText pre iOS 7.

I've been struggling with this myself a while ago and this post was very helpful to me.

It is CoreText though.

Answer 2

This seems to do the trick:

UIBezierPath * imgRect = [UIBezierPath bezierPathWithRect:CGRectMake(0, 0, 100, 100)];
self.textView.textContainer.exclusionPaths = @[imgRect];

Works only from iOS 7 and up.

Answer 3

In Swift 4:

self.textView.textContainer.exclusionPaths = [UIBezierPath(rect: imageView.frame)]
