Title: How to get screen position between two words in UILabel?
Post by: amaranth on December 31, 2013, 09:03:40 PM

I'm trying to figure out how to build a string with images in it. I have everything working, except that I don't know how to get my image to show up in the right place.

The string: "Open your journal to see your quests."

The question: I need to insert an image between "your" and "journal". I believe I need to get the screen coordinates between these two words, but I'm not sure how to do this.

Inserting an image between two words? Create an emoticon on your font using a specific sequence of characters, such as "[J]", and reference a sprite. This implies you're using bitmap fonts. If not, use NGUIText.PrintCharacterPositions (after calling label.UpdateNGUIText()).
