Text selected without showing the pins

Question

Is there a way to programmatically select a text without showing the pins at the beginning and at the end of the selected text?

Example:

Although you should be more precise, I presume you just want to highlight some parts of the text with a background color. Therefore you can use NSAttributedString.

You can look up how to create an attributed String here and how to use background color on it here.

The behaviour is not the same as selecting a text with cursor – thibaut noah Mar 11 '19 at 11:12
