In the "old" TextKit, page-based layout is accomplished by providing an array of NSTextContainers to NSLayoutManager, each with its own NSTextView. TextKit 2, NSTextLayoutManager allows only a single text container. Additionally, NSTextParagraph seems to be the only concrete NSTextElement class. Paragraphs often need to break across page boundaries. How would one implement page-based layout in TextKit 2?

I'm trying to implement custom NSTextContentManager and use it with NSTextView, however it seems that NSTextView expect NSTextContentStorage all the time. final class MyTextContentManager: NSTextContentManager { // ... } It's added to layout manager, and NSTextView instance finds it properly: let textContentManager = MyTextContentManager() textContentManager.addTextLayoutManager(textLayoutManager) however, when I use it, I see errors at: [MyTextContentManager textStorage]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x600003d84870 the textStorage property is part of NSTextStorageObserving, that is not NSTextContentManager interface. It looks like NSTextView is not ready to work with custom NSTextContentManager. What did I miss?

The way NSTextView is built it's inevitable to use NSTextStorage with TextKit2, however the NSAttributedString uses NSRange vs the TextKit2 family uses NSTextRange for text location, etc. What I struggle with is the relation between these two. I didn't find a convenient translation between these two. Is NSAttributedStrint NSRange length=1 equal to NSTextRange offset 1? I think it's not (at least it's not necessarily true for every NSTextContentManager. So my question is, given a NSTextRange, what is the corresponding NSRange in NSTextContentStorage.attributedString
