Here is my new bee issue: I was simply trying to add a CATextlayer in an UIView layer. However, according to the following code, I only get the CATextlayer's background color be displayed in the UIView, without any text. Just wonder what did I missed to display the text.
Could anyone ofter a hint/sample how to use CATextlayer? Thanks.
(id)initWithNibName:(NSString *)nibNameOrNil bundle:(NSBundle *)nibBundleOrNil { if ((self = [super initWithNibName:nibNameOrNil bundle:nibBundleOrNil])) { // Custom initialization
CATextLayer *TextLayer = [CATextLayer layer]; TextLayer.bounds = CGRectMake(0.0f, 0.0f, 100.0f, 100.0f); TextLayer.string = @"Test"; TextLayer.font = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:18].fontName; TextLayer.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor].CGColor; TextLayer.wrapped = NO; //TextLayer.backgroundColor = [UIColor blueColor]; self.view = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0.0f, 0.0f, 100.0f, 100.0f)]; self.view.backgroundColor = [UIColor blueColor]; [self.view.layer addSublayer:TextLayer]; [self.view.layer layoutSublayers];
} return self; }
