Change font for decimal part of a number

Question

my question is, how do I change the font size for the decimal part of a number, example:

So far I can separate the components of the number but I can't manage to find a solution to change the font size of the decimal part, here is what I currently have:

-(NSString *)formaterDecimale:(CGFloat)valeurReel{
NSNumberFormatter *numberFormatter =[[NSNumberFormatter alloc] init];
[numberFormatter setNumberStyle:NSNumberFormatterDecimalStyle];
[numberFormatter setDecimalSeparator:@","];
[numberFormatter setNegativePrefix:@""];
[numberFormatter setGroupingSeparator:@"."];
[numberFormatter setRoundingIncrement:[NSNumber numberWithDouble:0.01]];
[numberFormatter setFormatterBehavior:NSNumberFormatterBehavior10_4];

NSString *formattedString = [numberFormatter stringFromNumber:[NSNumber numberWithFloat:valeurReel]];
return formattedString;

}

Best Regards.

You should create attributed string

NSRange range = [formattedString rangeOfString:@"."];
range.length = formattedString.length - range.location;


NSDictionary *normalAttributes = @{ NSFontAttributeName : [UIFont systemFontOfSize:15],
                                   NSForegroundColorAttributeName : [UIColor blackColor] };

NSDictionary *smallAttributes = @{ NSFontAttributeName : [UIFont systemFontOfSize:8],
                                   NSForegroundColorAttributeName : [UIColor grayColor] };

NSMutableAttributedString *attributedString = [[NSMutableAttributedString alloc] initWithString:formattedString attributes:normalAttributes];
[attributedString setAttributes:smallAttributes range:range];

and then assign it to attributedText property of UILabel for example.

UILabel *your_label; // do not forget to create and initialize it
your_label.attributedText = attributedString;

Some other controls like UITextView also can show attributed strings.

May be this CGRect for selected UITextRange adjustment for multiline text? answer could be also interesting for you.

Something like this:

-(NSString *)formaterDecimale:(CGFloat)valeurReel{
   NSNumberFormatter *numberFormatter =[[NSNumberFormatter alloc] init];
   [numberFormatter setNumberStyle:NSNumberFormatterDecimalStyle];
   [numberFormatter setDecimalSeparator:@","];
   [numberFormatter setNegativePrefix:@""];
   [numberFormatter setGroupingSeparator:@"."];
   [numberFormatter setRoundingIncrement:[NSNumber numberWithDouble:0.01]];
   [numberFormatter setFormatterBehavior:NSNumberFormatterBehavior10_4];

   NSString *formattedString = [numberFormatter stringFromNumber:[NSNumber numberWithFloat:valeurReel]];

   // Change font of decimal part
   NSMutableAttributedString* attrString = [[NSMutableAttributedString alloc] initWithString:formattedString];
   NSDictionary *decimalAttributes = @{ NSFontAttributeName: [UIFont fontWithName:@"Verdana" size:13] };
   NSRange* decimalRange = [formattedString rangeOfString:@"."];
   [attrString setAttributes:spacingAttributtes range:decimalRange];

   return attrString;
}

Use attributed text on UILabel
