##About

StickerTextView is an subclass of UIImageView. You can add multiple text to it, edit, rotate, resize the text as you want with one finger, then render the text on Image.

##Features

• You can add multiple Text to StickerTextView at the same time
• Multiple line Text support
• Rotate, resize the text with one finger
• Set the Color, alpha, font, alignment, TextShadow, lineSpacing of the text
• StickerTextView also handle the process of rendering text on Image
• Written in Swift

##Installation ###CocoaPods To integrate StickerTextView into your Xcode project using CocoaPods, specify it in your Podfile and run pod install:

use_frameworks!
pod "JLStickerTextView", "~> 0.1.1"

To get the latest version:

use_frameworks!
pod "JLStickerTextView", :git =>
"https://github.com/luiyezheng/JLStickerTextView.git"

###Manually Just drag the Source files into your project

##Usage ###Start First, import JLStickerTextView, then subclass the UIImageView, which you want to add text on, to JLStickerImageView, like this:

import JLStickerTextView
class ViewController: UIViewController {
	@IBOutlet var stickerView: JLStickerImageView!
}

If you use Storyboard, you also need connect the UIImageView to JLStikcerImageView Class in Identity Inspector.

###Add new Label It is quite easy to add new label to current StickerImageView:

stickerView.addLabel()

###Set the Label You can set the color, font , alignment, alpha.... of the label ####Color

stickerView.textColor = UIColor.whiteColor()

####Alpha

sticker.textAlpha = CGFloat(textAlpha)

####Font

stickerView.fontName = fontName

####Alignment

stickerView.textAlignment = NSTextAlignment.Center

####LineSpacing

stickerView.lineSpacing = lineSpacing

####TextShadow

stickerView.textShadowOffset = CGSizeMake(10, 10)
stickerView.textShadowColor = UIColor.redColor()
stickerView.textShadowBlur = 0.0

Note: when you set the properties, you make change to the current selected TextLabel.

###Render Text on Image When you feel good, you are going to render the Text on Image and save the image:

let image = stickerView.renderTextOnView(stickerView)
UIImageWriteToSavedPhotosAlbum(image!, nil, nil, nil)

###Custom the StickerTextView appearance

Though a interface to custom stickerTextView appearance isn't avaliable yet. You can do it yourself. Here is a guide:

1. Open JLStickerLabelView.swift
2. Find the extension of JLStickerLabelView where I comment "setup"
3. Custom close and Rotate view in setupCloseAndRotateView(); custom border in setupBorder()

###Scale stickerView proportionally This function is not complete yet, I just make it to fit my requirement.

stickerView.limitImageViewToSuperView()

When you render the text on UIImageView whose content mode is AspectFit, it is possible you will get some unwanted border. This function will scale UIImageView to fit the image.

##Contributon Any suggestion, request, pull are welcome. If you encounter any problem, feel free to create an issue.

If you want to add more text attributes:

1. Please fork this project
2. Define the attribute you want in JLAttributedTextView.swift
3. implement user interface in JLStickerImageVIew.swift
4. Write appropriate docs and comments in the README.md
5. Submit a pull request

##Plan Here are some ideas:

• more options for text(eg: lineSpacing)
• interface to custome the appearance of StickerLabelView(close Button, rotate button, border,etc)
• more general solution for Scaling stickerView proportionally
• add placeholder
