JSTextView

Introduction

Any NSAttributedStringKey can be used to create text tags:

NSAttributedStringKey.font:

  textView.appendToLabelArray(
    attributeName: NSAttributedStringKey.font,
    attributeValue: UIFont(name: "Times New Roman", size: 43.0)!
  )

NSAttributedStringKey.foregroundColor

  textView.appendToLabelArray(
    attributeName: NSAttributedStringKey.foregroundColor,
    attributeValue: UIColor(
      red: 217/255.0,
      green: 80/255.0,
      blue: 0/255.0,
      alpha: 1.0
     )
  )

NSAttributedStringKey.foregroundColor

  textView.appendToLabelArray(
    attributeName: NSAttributedStringKey.underlineStyle,
    attributeValue: NSUnderlineStyle.styleSingle.rawValue
  )
