Font used for Timer in iOS 7's Clock app

Get height of string with font

Why am I unable to save my UIFontDescriptor into a variable?
objective-c,ios7,uikit,uifont,uifontdescriptor

UIFont extension in SWIFT
UIFont.fontNamesForFamilyName(familyNames.objectAtIndex(indFamily)) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ objectAtIndex, being a Objective-C method that returns id, returns a AnyObject instance in Swift, not a String. You could "cast" that to String. fontNames = NSArray(array: UIFont.fontNamesForFamilyName( familyNames.objectAtIndex(indFamily) as String)) This is how a version with more Swift and less Objective-C would look like: class func listAllFontsOnSystem2(){ let...
