问题
The issue I am having is that I want to be able to change the textColor of certain text in a TextView. I am using a concatenated string, and just want the strings I am appending into the TextView\'s text. It appears that what I want to use is NSMutableAttributedString
, but I am not finding any resources of how to use this in Swift. What I have so far is something like this:
let string = \"A \\(stringOne) with \\(stringTwo)\"
var attributedString = NSMutableAttributedString(string: string)
textView.attributedText = attributedString
From here I know I need to find the range of words that need to have their textColor changed and then add them to the attributed string. What I need to know is how to find the correct strings from the attributedString, and then change their textColor.
Since I have too low of a rating I can\'t answer my own question, but here is the answer I found
I found my own answer by translating from translating some code from
Change attributes of substrings in a NSAttributedString
Here is the example of implementation in Swift:
let string = \"A \\(stringOne) and \\(stringTwo)\"
var attributedString = NSMutableAttributedString(string:string)
let stringOneRegex = NSRegularExpression(pattern: nameString, options: nil, error: nil)
let stringOneMatches = stringOneRegex.matchesInString(longString, options: nil, range: NSMakeRange(0, attributedString.length))
for stringOneMatch in stringOneMatches {
let wordRange = stringOneMatch.rangeAtIndex(0)
attributedString.addAttribute(NSForegroundColorAttributeName, value: UIColor.nameColor(), range: wordRange)
}
textView.attributedText = attributedString
Since I am wanting to change the textColor of multiple Strings I will make a helper function to handle this, but this works for changing the textColor.
回答1:
I see you have answered the question somewhat, but to provide a slightly more concise way without using regex to answer to the title question:
To change the colour of a length of text you need to know the start and end index of the coloured-to-be characters in the string e.g.
var main_string = "Hello World"
var string_to_color = "World"
var range = (main_string as NSString).rangeOfString(string_to_color)
Then you convert to attributed string and use 'add attribute' with NSForegroundColorAttributeName:
var attributedString = NSMutableAttributedString(string:main_string)
attributedString.addAttribute(NSForegroundColorAttributeName, value: UIColor.redColor() , range: range)
A list of further standard attributes you can set can be found in Apple's documentation

SWIFT 5
let main_string = "Hello World"
let string_to_color = "World"
let range = (main_string as NSString).range(of: string_to_color)
let attribute = NSMutableAttributedString.init(string: main_string)
attribute.addAttribute(NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor, value: UIColor.red , range: range)
txtfield1 = UITextField.init(frame:CGRect(x:10 , y:20 ,width:100 , height:100))
txtfield1.attributedText = attribute
SWIFT 4.2
let txtfield1 :UITextField!
let main_string = "Hello World"
let string_to_color = "World"
let range = (main_string as NSString).range(of: string_to_color)
let attribute = NSMutableAttributedString.init(string: main_string)
attribute.addAttribute(NSAttributedStringKey.foregroundColor, value: UIColor.red , range: range)
txtfield1 = UITextField.init(frame:CGRect(x:10 , y:20 ,width:100 , height:100))
txtfield1.attributedText = attribute

Swift 2.1 Update:
let text = "We tried to make this app as most intuitive as possible for you. If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask us. For a detailed manual just click here."
let linkTextWithColor = "click here"
let range = (text as NSString).rangeOfString(linkTextWithColor)
let attributedString = NSMutableAttributedString(string:text)
attributedString.addAttribute(NSForegroundColorAttributeName, value: UIColor.redColor() , range: range)
self.helpText.attributedText = attributedString
self.helpText
is a UILabel
outlet.

Answer is already given in previous posts but i have a different way of doing this
Swift 3x :
var myMutableString = NSMutableAttributedString()
myMutableString = NSMutableAttributedString(string: "Your full label textString")
myMutableString.setAttributes([NSFontAttributeName : UIFont(name: "HelveticaNeue-Light", size: CGFloat(17.0))!
, NSForegroundColorAttributeName : UIColor(red: 232 / 255.0, green: 117 / 255.0, blue: 40 / 255.0, alpha: 1.0)], range: NSRange(location:12,length:8)) // What ever range you want to give
yourLabel.attributedText = myMutableString
Hope this helps anybody!

Chris' answer was a great help to me, so I used his approach and turned into a func that I can reuse. This let's me assign a color to a substring while giving the rest of the string another color.
static func createAttributedString(fullString: String, fullStringColor: UIColor, subString: String, subStringColor: UIColor) -> NSMutableAttributedString
{
let range = (fullString as NSString).rangeOfString(subString)
let attributedString = NSMutableAttributedString(string:fullString)
attributedString.addAttribute(NSForegroundColorAttributeName, value: fullStringColor, range: NSRange(location: 0, length: fullString.characters.count))
attributedString.addAttribute(NSForegroundColorAttributeName, value: subStringColor, range: range)
return attributedString
}

Swift 4.2 and Swift 5 colorise parts of string.
A very easy way to use NSMutableAttributedString while extending String. This also can be used to colourize more than one word in whole string.
Add new file for extensions, File -> New -> New File with name for ex. "NSAttributedString+TextColouring" and add the code
import UIKit
extension String {
func attributedStringWithColor(_ strings: [String], color: UIColor, characterSpacing: UInt? = nil) -> NSAttributedString {
let attributedString = NSMutableAttributedString(string: self)
for string in strings {
let range = (self as NSString).range(of: string)
attributedString.addAttribute(NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor, value: color, range: range)
}
guard let characterSpacing = characterSpacing else {return attributedString}
attributedString.addAttribute(NSAttributedString.Key.kern, value: characterSpacing, range: NSRange(location: 0, length: attributedString.length))
return attributedString
}
}
Now you can use globally at any viewcontroller you want:
let attributedWithTextColor: NSAttributedString = "Doc, welcome back :)".attributedStringWithColor(["Doc", "back"], color: UIColor.black)
myLabel.attributedText = attributedWithTextColor
回答7:
Swift 4.1
NSAttributedStringKey.foregroundColor
for example if you want to change font in NavBar:
self.navigationController?.navigationBar.titleTextAttributes = [ NSAttributedStringKey.font: UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 22), NSAttributedStringKey.foregroundColor: UIColor.white]
回答8:
You can use this extension I test it over
swift 4.2
import Foundation
import UIKit
extension NSMutableAttributedString {
convenience init (fullString: String, fullStringColor: UIColor, subString: String, subStringColor: UIColor) {
let rangeOfSubString = (fullString as NSString).range(of: subString)
let rangeOfFullString = NSRange(location: 0, length: fullString.count)//fullString.range(of: fullString)
let attributedString = NSMutableAttributedString(string:fullString)
attributedString.addAttribute(NSAttributedStringKey.foregroundColor, value: fullStringColor, range: rangeOfFullString)
attributedString.addAttribute(NSAttributedStringKey.foregroundColor, value: subStringColor, range: rangeOfSubString)
self.init(attributedString: attributedString)
}
}

Swift 2.2
var myMutableString = NSMutableAttributedString()
myMutableString = NSMutableAttributedString(string: "1234567890", attributes: [NSFontAttributeName:UIFont(name: kDefaultFontName, size: 14.0)!])
myMutableString.addAttribute(NSForegroundColorAttributeName, value: UIColor(red: 0.0/255.0, green: 125.0/255.0, blue: 179.0/255.0, alpha: 1.0), range: NSRange(location:0,length:5))
self.lblPhone.attributedText = myMutableString

Based on the answers before I created a string extension
extension String {
func highlightWordsIn(highlightedWords: String, attributes: [[NSAttributedStringKey: Any]]) -> NSMutableAttributedString {
let range = (self as NSString).range(of: highlightedWords)
let result = NSMutableAttributedString(string: self)
for attribute in attributes {
result.addAttributes(attribute, range: range)
}
return result
}
}
You can pass the attributes for the text to the method
Call like this
let attributes = [[NSAttributedStringKey.foregroundColor:UIColor.red], [NSAttributedStringKey.font: UIFont.boldSystemFont(ofSize: 17)]]
myLabel.attributedText = "This is a text".highlightWordsIn(highlightedWords: "is a text", attributes: attributes)
回答11:
Easiest way to do label with different style such as color, font etc. is use property "Attributed" in Attributes Inspector. Just choose part of text and change it like you want
回答12:
Swift 4.1
I have changed from this In Swift 3
let str = "Welcome "
let welcomeAttribute = [ NSForegroundColorAttributeName: UIColor.blue()]
let welcomeAttrString = NSMutableAttributedString(string: str, attributes: welcomeAttribute)
And this in Swift 4.0
let str = "Welcome "
let welcomeAttribute = [ NSAttributedStringKey.foregroundColor: UIColor.blue()]
let welcomeAttrString = NSMutableAttributedString(string: str, attributes: welcomeAttribute)
to Swift 4.1
let str = "Welcome "
let welcomeAttribute = [ NSAttributedStringKey(rawValue: NSForegroundColorAttributeName): UIColor.blue()]
let welcomeAttrString = NSMutableAttributedString(string: str, attributes: welcomeAttribute)
Works fine

swift 4.2
let textString = "Hello world"
let range = (textString as NSString).range(of: "world")
let attributedString = NSMutableAttributedString(string: textString)
attributedString.addAttribute(NSAttributedStringKey.foregroundColor, value: UIColor.red, range: range)
self.textUIlable.attributedText = attributedString
回答14:
For everyone who are looking for "Applying specific color to multiple words in text", we can do it using NSRegularExpression
func highlight(matchingText: String, in text: String) {
let attributedString = NSMutableAttributedString(string: text)
if let regularExpression = try? NSRegularExpression(pattern: "\(matchingText)", options: .caseInsensitive) {
let matchedResults = regularExpression.matches(in: text, options: [], range: NSRange(location: 0, length: attributedString.length))
for matched in matchedResults {
attributedString.addAttributes([NSAttributedStringKey.backgroundColor : UIColor.yellow], range: matched.range)
}
yourLabel.attributedText = attributedString
}
}

This might be work for you
let main_string = " User not found,Want to review ? Click here"
let string_to_color = "Click here"
let range = (main_string as NSString).range(of: string_to_color)
let attribute = NSMutableAttributedString.init(string: main_string)
attribute.addAttribute(NSAttributedStringKey.foregroundColor, value: UIColor.blue , range: range)
lblClickHere.attributedText = attribute
回答16:
To change color of the font colour, first select attributed instead of plain like in the image below
You then need to select the text in the attributed field and then select the color button on the right-hand side of the alignments. This will change the color.
回答17:
You can use this method. I implemented this method in my common utility class to access globally.
func attributedString(with highlightString: String, normalString: String, highlightColor: UIColor) -> NSMutableAttributedString {
let attributes = [NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor: highlightColor]
let attributedString = NSMutableAttributedString(string: highlightString, attributes: attributes)
attributedString.append(NSAttributedString(string: normalString))
return attributedString
}
回答18:
If you are using Swift 3x and UITextView, maybe the NSForegroundColorAttributeName won't work (it didn't work for me no matter what approach I tried).
So, after some digging around I found a solution.
//Get the textView somehow
let textView = UITextView()
//Set the attributed string with links to it
textView.attributedString = attributedString
//Set the tint color. It will apply to the link only
textView.tintColor = UIColor.red
回答19:
Super easy way to do this.
let text = "This is a colorful attributed string"
let attributedText =
NSMutableAttributedString.getAttributedString(fromString: text)
attributedText.apply(color: .red, subString: "This")
//Apply yellow color on range
attributedText.apply(color: .yellow, onRange: NSMakeRange(5, 4))

回答20:
You need to change textview parameters, not parameters of attributed string
textView.linkTextAttributes = [
NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor: UIColor.red,
NSAttributedString.Key.underlineColor: UIColor.red,
NSAttributedString.Key.underlineStyle: NSUnderlineStyle.single.rawValue
]

Please check cocoapod Prestyler:
Prestyler.defineRule("$", UIColor.orange)
label.attributedText = "This $text$ is orange".prestyled()
