Invisible Characters

Ok, so I want to have invisible characters, kind of like the way BBEdit has them. So what I'm doing so far is calling NSLayoutManager's setShowsInvisibleCharacters: with YES, like this:

(inside tableview subclass)

[[self layoutManager] setShowsInvisibleCharacters: YES];

Now, I've tried with a few fonts and this does not seem to do anything. So I've reached the conclusion that I'm either doing something wrong or all the fonts I've tried do not support invisible characters.

Does anyone have any input on this? Also, if I want to show the same invisible characters no matter what font is chosen, is there an easy way to do this without having to create my own fonts or something.

Thank you in advance,

Francisco Tolmasky
