Bold & Non-Bold Text In A Single UILabel?

Question

How would it be possible to include both bold and non-bold text in a uiLabel?

I'd rather not use a UIWebView.. I've also read this may be possible using NSAttributedString but I have no idea how to use that. Any ideas?

Apple achieves this in several of their apps; Examples Screenshot: link text

Answer 1

Check out this topic from a previous Stack Overflow. (Basically, create two UILabels and position them correctly relative to each other.)

Answer 2

Use a CATextLayer with an NSAttributedString ! much lighter and simpler than 2 UILabels. (iOS 3.2 and above)
