Wrapping Text in a UITextView Around a UIImage WITHOUT CoreText

Question

Is there a way to wrap text from a UITextView around a UIImage without using CoreText?

I have been playing around with attributed strings without much luck, and CoreText just seems extremely complicated so I would rather stay out of it.

Answer 1

This seems to do the trick:

UIBezierPath * imgRect = [UIBezierPath bezierPathWithRect:CGRectMake(0, 0, 100, 100)];
self.textView.textContainer.exclusionPaths = @[imgRect];

Swift,

textView.textContainer.exclusionPaths = [UIBezierPath(...)]

or just

textView.textContainer.exclusionPaths = [UIBezierPath(...the image frame)]

Works only from iOS 7 and up.
