I know this might seem like a weird idea, but I need to figure out the size (width and height) of an NSAttributedString that I am drawing... basically I need to know it because I am drawing it inside a larger image and I need to position it... however the string can be of any font/size/length... is there a way to do this??
Yes: <http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/TextLayout/Tasks/StringHeight.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/20001809 >
In addition to what it says in the guide, you also need to set the typesetter behavior to NSTypesetterBehavior_10_2_WithCompatibility or you will get inaccurate results if this is a string that is drawn using one of the built-in methods for drawing.
