Put a text on a NSTextField from Objective-C

Question

I want to put text in a NSTextField, as if it was a Label.

I have tried the following:

[textFieldInstance setStringValue:@"Hello"];

setStringValue should work, what is your concern? Text or look? — Sahil Doshi, Feb 02 '18 at 12:41

Adding text to a UITextField?

In Objective-C:

myTextField.text = @"Your text here";

In Swift:

myTextField.text = "Your text here"

It's the text property of UITextField that controls what characters are displayed.

Please consult the documentation as this can be easily looked up!

@MarcosGómez You never said `NSTextField` in your question and you tagged it both iOS and Cocoa. I fixed your question's tags. – rmaddy Feb 01 '18 at 19:56
