Use multiple font colors in a single label

Question

Is there a way to use two, or even three font colors in a single label in iOS?

If the text "hello, how are you" were used as an example, the "hello," would be blue, and the "how are you" would be green?

Is this possible, it seems easier than creating multiple labels?

Answer 1

Reference from here.

First of all initialize of you NSString and NSMutableAttributedString as below.

var myString:NSString = "I AM KIRIT MODI" var myMutableString = NSMutableAttributedString() 

In ViewDidLoad

override func viewDidLoad() {      myMutableString = NSMutableAttributedString(string: myString, attributes: [NSFontAttributeName:UIFont(name: "Georgia", size: 18.0)!])     myMutableString.addAttribute(NSForegroundColorAttributeName, value: UIColor.redColor(), range: NSRange(location:2,length:4))     // set label Attribute     labName.attributedText = myMutableString     super.viewDidLoad() } 

OUTPUT

MULTIPLE COLOR

Add the line code below in your ViewDidLoad to get multiple colors in a string.

 myMutableString.addAttribute(NSForegroundColorAttributeName, value: UIColor.greenColor(), range: NSRange(location:10,length:5)) 

Multiple color OUTPUT

Swift 4

var myMutableString = NSMutableAttributedString(string: str, attributes: [NSAttributedStringKey.font :UIFont(name: "Georgia", size: 18.0)!]) myMutableString.addAttribute(NSAttributedStringKey.foregroundColor, value: UIColor.red, range: NSRange(location:2,length:4)) 

Swift 5.0

 var myMutableString = NSMutableAttributedString(string: str, attributes: [NSAttributedString.Key.font :UIFont(name: "Georgia", size: 18.0)!])  myMutableString.addAttribute(NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor, value: UIColor.red, range: NSRange(location:2,length:4))

For @Hems Moradiya

let attrs1 = [NSFontAttributeName : UIFont.boldSystemFontOfSize(18), NSForegroundColorAttributeName : UIColor.greenColor()]  let attrs2 = [NSFontAttributeName : UIFont.boldSystemFontOfSize(18), NSForegroundColorAttributeName : UIColor.whiteColor()]  let attributedString1 = NSMutableAttributedString(string:"Drive", attributes:attrs1)  let attributedString2 = NSMutableAttributedString(string:"safe", attributes:attrs2)  attributedString1.appendAttributedString(attributedString2) self.lblText.attributedText = attributedString1 

Swift 4

    let attrs1 = [NSAttributedStringKey.font : UIFont.boldSystemFont(ofSize: 18), NSAttributedStringKey.foregroundColor : UIColor.green]      let attrs2 = [NSAttributedStringKey.font : UIFont.boldSystemFont(ofSize: 18), NSAttributedStringKey.foregroundColor : UIColor.white]      let attributedString1 = NSMutableAttributedString(string:"Drive", attributes:attrs1)      let attributedString2 = NSMutableAttributedString(string:"safe", attributes:attrs2)      attributedString1.append(attributedString2)     self.lblText.attributedText = attributedString1 

Swift 5

    let attrs1 = [NSAttributedString.Key.font : UIFont.boldSystemFont(ofSize: 18), NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor : UIColor.green]      let attrs2 = [NSAttributedString.Key.font : UIFont.boldSystemFont(ofSize: 18), NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor : UIColor.white]      let attributedString1 = NSMutableAttributedString(string:"Drive", attributes:attrs1)      let attributedString2 = NSMutableAttributedString(string:"safe", attributes:attrs2)      attributedString1.append(attributedString2)     self.lblText.attributedText = attributedString1
