Have you tried kerning?
I haven't tried this with attachments, but since they're just treated
as glyphs, you might be able to set a kerning attribute on a range
that includes the character before the attachment and the attachment
itself.
You'd do this by setting the range to have the NSKernAttributeName
attribute, with a value (apparently) specified in points.
I'll admit that a potential problem with this approach is if the user
deletes the attachment, you'll want to remove the kerning of the
previous character.
Yep, tried that too. NSTextView doesn't pay any attention to kerning
for attachments. I set it using the NSKernAttributeName and also by
calling -loosenKerning: (or some such) as a test. No movement.
