This is a longstanding bug, or maybe it’s an API issue. The problem is that the view’s text is empty, and an empty NSAttributedString can’t have any attributes because the attributes are associated with characters.
IIRC you can fix this by adding some placeholder text, even a single space, in the view, then replacing it at runtime.
