iOS Question [SOLVED] CSBuilder clickable link color in B4i. How to change it?

[JordiCP]

I wanted to update an already existing B4i app and thought it wouldn't take me much ?...but here I am.

In this version, some explanatory texts are to be added to a TextView, and some parts of which should be clickable. So I thought of using CSBuilder. However, by design, the clickable parts must be a different color that the one iOS is showing (blue), and I can't get it to change whatever I try

Does anyone know the proper way to change the color of clickable links by using CSBuilder in B4i? I've tried with (just testing)

Dim cs As CSBuilder
    cs.Initialize.Alignment("ALIGN_LEFT")
    cs.Append("example text1")
    cs.Link("link1").Color(Colors.White).Underline.Append("This is my Link").Pop.Pop.Pop
    cs.Append("example text2")
   cs..PopAll

and also tried with the B4A CSBuilder tutorial approach (a separate CSBuilder), but it is not compatible with B4i's CSBuilder.


I'm wondering if I am missing something obvious, or it works like this and I must take another approach

Ok. Seems that it doesn't matter which color is set in a CSBuilder's link, because it is overriden by a UITextView's property
Dived into the UITextView documentation and also found this stackOverflow post doing something similar.

In case someone else needs it in the future, it can be done like this

#if OBJC
// Here fixed attributes are used. Could be expanded to be customizable
-(void) changeTextViewLinkAttributes:(UITextView*) textView  {

    NSDictionary *linkAttributes = @{NSForegroundColorAttributeName: [UIColor greenColor],
                                 NSUnderlineColorAttributeName: [UIColor lightGrayColor],
                                 NSUnderlineStyleAttributeName: @(NSUnderlineStyleSingle)};
    textView.linkTextAttributes = linkAttributes;    
}
#End If

and I call it with

' myTextView is a previously declared and initialized TextView
    Me.As(NativeObject).RunMethod("changeTextViewLinkAttributes:", Array(myTextView))
