iPhone – UILabel containing text with multiple fonts at the same time

by

There is a way to set different / multiple fonts & other properties on Label using NSMutableAttributedString. Foll is my code:

 UIFont *arialFont = [UIFont fontWithName:@"arial" size:18.0];
 NSDictionary *arialDict = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObject: arialFont forKey:NSFontAttributeName];    
 NSMutableAttributedString *aAttrString = [[NSMutableAttributedString alloc] initWithString:title attributes: arialDict];

 UIFont *VerdanaFont = [UIFont fontWithName:@"verdana" size:12.0];
 NSDictionary *verdanaDict = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObject:VerdanaFont forKey:NSFontAttributeName];
 NSMutableAttributedString *vAttrString = [[NSMutableAttributedString alloc]initWithString: newsDate attributes:verdanaDict];    
 [vAttrString addAttribute:NSForegroundColorAttributeName value:[UIColor blackColor] range:(NSMakeRange(0, 15))];

 [aAttrString appendAttributedString:vAttrString];


 lblText.attributedText = aAttrString;

Note that lblText is the UILabel, outlet as file owner.
One can keep on appending as many NSMutableAttributedString he wants..

Also Note that I’ve added verdana & arial font in my project & added a plist for the same.
