I'd like to add some custom text highlighting to my NSTextView, so I added the
following code to the NSTextView init method:
CALayer *aLayer = [CALayer layer];
[self setWantsLayer: YES];
[self setLayer: aLayer];
Then I add the highlighting for a particular text range (aRange):
self.layer.backgroundColor = CGColorCreateGenericRGB (0.2, 0.2, 0.1,
1.0);
self.layer.frame = [self.layoutManager boundingRectForGlyphRange:
aRange inTextContainer: self.textContainer];
But it looks all garbled for the while view, not for the range, and I see the
Xcode window text behind it.
What should I do to make this work?
attributes = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys: [NSColor redColor,
NSBackgroundColorAttributeName, nil];
[self layoutManager] addTemporaryAttributes: attributes forCharacterRange:
aRange]; works, but I'd like to have some more control on how the text
highlighting is drawn.
