NSParagraphStyle Explained Visually
1 min readJun 26, 2015
I used to find myself randomly guessing a lot of magic numbers when it came to laying out paragraphs. The biggest issue I had was text clipping with small `lineHeightMultiples` — I figured that out in my last post.
`NSParagraphStyle` is much better documented in the header file then its actual documentation (⌘-click an attribute to view). In lieu of that, I made a quick cheatsheet for everybody to understand what’s possible.
Funnily enough, sometimes the best way to explain text is with an image.
It all makes so much sense now. My next post explains `UIFont`.
