Solution

  • You have to use objString.removeFirst() only when objString.first == "*"

    Similarly objGetString.removeLast() when objString.last == "*"

    Just put those conditions and you will be good to go...

    if (objString.first == "*" || objString.last == "*") && objString.count > 2 {
    if (objString.first == "*") {
        objString.removeFirst()
    }

    if (objString.last == "*") {
        objString.removeLast()
    }
    objString.append(" ")

    Update this for all cases

    Suggestion

    I suggest to create function which will accept text & option text as * OR _ OR / to make necessary action

    func updateText(mainString : String, optionString : String) -> String {
    if (mainString.first == optionString || mainString.last == optionString) && mainString.count > 2 {
        mainString.removeFirst()
        mainString.removeLast()
        mainString.append(" ")

        // add case here for font
        var fontName : String = ""
        switch optionString {
            case "*" :
               fontName = "Ubuntu-Bold"
            case "_" :
               fontName = "Ubuntu-Italic"
        }
        let attributes:[NSAttributedString.Key : Any] = [
            .font :  UIFont(name: fontName, size: 16)!
        ]
        finalString.append(NSAttributedString(string: objString, attributes:attributes))
        objFinalString.append(objString)

        finalString.mutableString.replaceOccurrences(of: optionString, with: optionString, options: NSString.CompareOptions.caseInsensitive, range: NSRange(location: 0, length: finalString.length))
        objFinalString.replacingOccurrences(of: optionString, with: optionString)
     }
}

    This is not exact code, but will give you idea.
