Text sent to UITextView text now smaller than the 17 Placeholder text in UIBuilder

Question

IOS 6, iPhone.

I have a UITextView with placeholder text set at Helvetica 17.0.

I send text to the UITextView which is displayed in the same size font.

Just after I was trying to change the colour of one of the placeholder words in UIBuilder, the text of the text sent to the UITextView has become very small. I now cannot seem to display the sent text in the same size font as set in UIBuilder as it used to be. I have not changed any code. What did I do? Any help please.

_conditionTextView.text = messageText;

Additional - I changed the UIBuilder "Text" section back to plain and it reverted to as it was. I then changed it back to attributed and it remain good. After changing a placeholder word colour to blue, it did as described above. I absolutely don't need the word blue, so for now I will leave it black. Thanks anyway.

Answer 1

Don't set the text property, set the attributedText property.
