Implement NSLineBreakByWordWrapping

[Dermiste]

Hello,

I've been trying to use NSLineBreakByWordWrapping on a DTAttributedLabel. It does work, but does not seem to use the truncationString I'm passing on (in this case "...").

At present only start, middle and end trunction is implemented.

All right, where should I implement this? So you can then pull it in the source code

In DTCoreTextLayoutFrame, in _buildLinesWithTypesetter, line 245ff

In line 502 there is:
if ([typesetLines count] && self.lineBreakMode)

Which prevents from going in the "_buildLinesWithTypesetter" function as self.lineBreakMode = 0 (NSLineBreakByWordWrapping = 0).
Is that on purpose?

@Dermiste Well, isn't word wrapping the default and not truncating?

[Dermiste]

All right, I think there was a mistake in my understanding of the constant :)
Anyway, the truncatedString still does not add up at the end of the text when it's truncated
