Txt Snippets

Quality score: 70/100 · Category: Content · Sub-category: content-misc

lang:python

Look up working code snippets for common text-view features — placeholder text, character/word limits, auto-growing height, search highlighting, link/data detection, line numbers, custom cursor color, scroll-to-range. Use when the user asks "how do I…" about a small, well-scoped UITextView/NSTextView or NSAttributedString task and you need a copy-paste recipe rather than architecture guidance. Trigger on casual 'how do I add line numbers / a placeholder / a character limit / a custom cursor color' phrasings even when no API name appears. Do NOT use for picking between TextKit 1 and TextKit 2 (txt-textkit-choice), choosing a text view (txt-view-picker), or paragraph-style internals (txt-line-breaking).
