Never tried that component, but not being able to set a custom font for a text view is such an obvious miss for an OS that claims to be so much text oriented.
I can't count the number of times i've had to bind a UILabel into my code just to set the font.
I know, UIApparence should be the way to set fonts everywhere, but that defeat the purpose of rapid prototyping IB is made for.
- gbrhaz 13y agoSubclass UILabel and set it in the initializer?
- mengto 13y agoThanks, we'll add that in the next commit. I wish there was an easier way than having to cover all of those objects.
- jamztang 13y agoThere's a third party plugin for Xcode claims to do this called MoarFonts and asked you for $10, however I have not tried that. Runtime attributes patch wouldn't take effect instantly in IB but it works reliably well in our experience.

- JimDabell 13y ago> not being able to set a custom font for a text view is such an obvious miss Can't you just use an attributed string? Xcode lets you pick a font using the standard system font picker then.
