KSLabel

A dead simple class for when you need to create a simple label programmatically.

Methods

The only custom method available is

- (instancetype)initWithAttributedString:(NSAttributedString *)string
                                  inView:(NSView *)view;

The attributed string should be an NSAttributedString with whatever attributes you want to be displayed. Be sure to set the NSFontAttributeName key

The passed NSView should be the view the label will be added to. The label will be setup to be centered within the passed view.

You can also set notificationToPost with the name of an NSNotification to be posted when the label is clicked.

Example:

NSDictionary *attributes = @{NSFontAttributeName: [NSFont systemFontOfSize:[NSFont systemFontSize]]};
NSAttributedString *string = [[NSAttributedString alloc] initWithString:@"My string"
                                                             attributes:attributes];
KSLabel *mylabel = [[KSLabel alloc] initWithAttributedString:string
                                                      inView:titleBarView];
mylabel.notificationToPost = @"Some String!";
NSNotification *notification = [NSNotification notificationWithName:@"someName"
                                                             object:someObject
                                                           userInfo:@{@"someKey": @"someObject"}]
myLabel.NSNotificationToPost = notification;
myLabel.action = @selector(doSomething:);
myLabel.cursor = [NSCursor pointingHandCursor];
[myView addSubview:mylabel];

CocoaPods
