I am working on a story app.Where We need to provide quizes. Now I am having a story and there are some blanks or hidden words over that story. Whenever I click over that hidden word,I will get the 4 options to answer that. I tried by placing button over the words,But that would be only when I am using some static position. I just want to know how can I get the frame of that word,which I need to hide ,so that I can place some button over that and can hide this.
You can see the image below.. All answers would be appreciated
Solution:- This will work after iOS 5 only not below that !
- (CGRect)frameOfTextRange:(NSRange)range inTextView:(UITextView *)textView
{
UITextPosition *beginning = textView.beginningOfDocument;
UITextPosition *start = [textView positionFromPosition:beginning offset:range.location];
UITextPosition *end = [textView positionFromPosition:start offset:range.length];
UITextRange *textRange = [textView textRangeFromPosition:start toPosition:end];
CGRect rect = [textView firstRectForRange:textRange];
return [textView convertRect:rect fromView:textView.textInputView];
}
Thanks
See one more image for errors:
UITextView
adopts the UITextInput
protocol. That protocol has the method -firstRectForRange:
which will tell you the rectangle covering a range of characters. If the range of characters spans multiple lines, you have to call it repeatedly. The first time it will give you the first rect and tell you what range that covers. Then, you adjust the range you're asking about to be the remaining characters you're interested in and repeat.
