πŸŽ‰ Easy Guide: How to Change Font Size of UISegmentedControl in iOS πŸ“±

Do you ever wish you could customize the font size and type of a UISegmentedControl in your iOS app? πŸ€” Well, you're in luck! In this blog post, we'll explore a step-by-step guide on how to achieve this customization. Let's dive right in! πŸš€

❗ The Problem:

<p>Can anyone please tell me how can I change the font type and size of <code>UISegmentedControl</code>?</p>

πŸ’‘ The Solution:

Changing the font size of a UISegmentedControl may not be as straightforward as changing a UIButton's font, but fear not! Here's a simple solution to tackle this problem:

First, we need to subclass UISegmentedControl and override its layoutSubviews() method. πŸ”§

import UIKit

class CustomSegmentedControl: UISegmentedControl {
    override func layoutSubviews() {
        super.layoutSubviews()
        
        setTitleTextAttributes([NSAttributedString.Key.font: UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 16)], for: .normal)
    }
}

In the example above, we subclass UISegmentedControl and set the font size to 16 points using setTitleTextAttributes(). Feel free to adjust the font size to your preference! ✨

Next, in your view controller, replace the default UISegmentedControl with your custom subclass:

let segmentedControl = CustomSegmentedControl(items: ["Segment 1", "Segment 2"])

That's it! πŸŽ‰ By following these simple steps, you can now easily change the font size of a UISegmentedControl in your iOS app without any hassle.

πŸ“£ Take It a Step Further:

Customizing the font type and size of a UISegmentedControl is just the tip of the iceberg! Get creative and experiment with different attributes such as color, style, and more. 🎨

Challenge yourself to create a fully personalized UISegmentedControl that aligns with your app's design and branding. πŸ’ͺ Feel free to share your customized UISegmentedControl on social media using the hashtag #SegmentedControlRevamp, tagging our blog, and let's inspire each other! πŸ“Έβœ¨
