A UILabel’s text is drawn in a CGRect(x,y,size,width). The label can have multiple lines of text.
Is it possible to write a function to return a CGPoint within this rectangle that designates the position of the last character?
I ask because I am trying to wrap the text of a UILabel in an arbitrary prefix and suffix. The prefix/suffix need to be separate labels so I can set their font, color, etc. It’s easy to find the start of the text, but finding the end of the text is tricky, to me at least.
Perhaps a UIWebView will do the trick. Populate it with
[webview LoadHTMLString:@"<b>prefix/b>text<b>suffix</b>" baseURL:nil]. This is a bit of a sledgehammer solution, but you obviously get lots of other goodies thrown into the bargain.
