This works well when the user is typing at the end of the text. When the user is typing in the middle of existing text, however, the ruler and insertion point do not always update to reflect the paragraph style of the typing attributes. Is this a bug? Or is this by design? I have tried using -[NSTextView updateRuler] to force the ruler to update but this has no effect. Is there any way to force the ruler and insertion point to update properly?

I can't tell exactly what's going on without seeing it, but one thing you need to keep in mind is that paragraph styles need to be constant over the whole range of the paragraph; if they aren't, then paragraph style fixing will make sure they are by extending the paragraph style from the beginning of a paragraph to cover all of it. If the user is typing in the middle of a paragraph, just changing the paragraph style in the typing attributes wouldn't be enough; you would need to change it for the whole paragraph in the text storage.
