iOS 10.3: NSStrikethroughStyleAttributeName is not rendered if applied to a sub range of NSMutableAttributedString
Setting the baseline offset seems to fix it:
[attributedStr addAttribute:NSBaselineOffsetAttributeName value:@0 range:NSMakeRange(0, 10)];
[attributedStr addAttribute:NSStrikethroughStyleAttributeName value:@2 range:NSMakeRange(0, 10)];
This is a known bug in iOS 10.3
Adding a NSBaselineOffsetAttributeName
, as explained here, to the attributed string brings back the strikethrough line. Overriding drawText:in:
can be slow especially on Collection View or Table View Cells.
Found a workaround for our specific scenario (we don't specify any styling with UILabel's properties, but all with NSAttributedString
attributes):
/// This UILabel subclass accomodates conditional fix for NSAttributedString rendering broken by Apple in iOS 10.3
final class PriceLabel: UILabel {
override func drawText(in rect: CGRect) {
guard let attributedText = attributedText else {
super.drawText(in: rect)
return
}
if #available(iOS 10.3, *) {
attributedText.draw(in: rect)
} else {
super.drawText(in: rect)
}
}
}
NOTE: if you mix UILabel's styling properties with NSAttributedString
attributes, you should think of creating a new attributed string before rendering, apply UILabel's styling on it and then re-apply all attributedText
's attributes over it.
