# DSTextLineResultItem

The `DSTextLineResultItem` class represents a single text line result item recognized by the library. It is derived from `DSCapturedResultItem` and is one of the base units of `DSRecognizedTextLinesResult`.

## Definition

*Assembly:* DynamsoftCaptureVisionBundle.xcframework

<div class="sample-code-prefix"></div>
>- Objective-C
>- Swift
>
>1. 
```objc
@interface DSTextLineResultItem: DSCapturedResultItem
```
2. 
```swift
class TextLineResultItem: CapturedResultItem
```

*Inheritance:* [DSCapturedResultItem]({{ site.dcv_ios_api }}core/basic-structures/captured-result-item.html) -> DSTextLineResultItem

## Properties

| Property | Type | Description |
| -------- | ---- | ----------- |
| [`text`](#text) | *NSString \** | The text content of the text line. |
| [`location`](#location) | *DSQuadrilateral \** | The location of the text line in the form of a quadrilateral. |
| [`confidence`](#confidence) | *NSInteger* | The confidence of the text line recognition result. |
| [`characterResults`](#characterresults) | *NSArray<DSCharacterResult \*> \** | All the characters in the text line. Each character is represented by a [`CharacterResult`](character-result.md) object. |
| [`specificationName`](#specificationname) | *NSString \** | the name of the [`TextLineSpecification`]({{site.dcv_parameter_reference}}text-line-specification/) object that generated this `TextLineResultItem`. |
| [`rawText`](#rawtext) | *NSString \** | The recognized raw text, excluding any concatenation separators. |

### text

Returns the text content of the individual text line.

<div class="sample-code-prefix"></div>
>- Objective-C

>1. 
```objc
@property (nonatomic, readonly, copy) NSString* text;
```
2. 
```swift
var text: String? { get }
```

### location

It is used to get the location of the text line in the form of a [DSQuadrilateral]({{ site.dcv_ios_api }}core/basic-structures/quadrilateral.html).

<div class="sample-code-prefix"></div>
>- Objective-C
>- Swift
>
>1. 
```objc
@property (nonatomic, readonly, strong) DSQuadrilateral* location;
```
2. 
```swift
var location: Quadrilateral? { get }
```

### confidence

Returns the confidence of the individual text line recognition result.

<div class="sample-code-prefix"></div>
>- Objective-C
>- Swift
>
>1. 
```objc
@property (nonatomic, assign, readonly) NSInteger confidence;
```
2. 
```swift
var confidence: Int { get }
```

### characterResults

Returns all the characters in the text line. Each character is represented by a [`CharacterResult`](character-result.md) object.

<div class="sample-code-prefix"></div>
>- Objective-C
>- Swift
>
>1. 
```objc
@property (nonatomic, readonly, copy, nullable) NSArray<DSCharacterResult*>* charResult;
```
2. 
```swift
var charResult: [CharacterResult]? { get }
```

### specificationName

The name of the [`TextLineSpecification`]({{site.dcv_parameter_reference}}text-line-specification/) object that generated this `TextLineResultItem`.

<div class="sample-code-prefix"></div>
>- Objective-C
>- Swift
>

```objc
@property (nonatomic, readonly, assign) NSString* specificationName;
```
2. 
```swift
var specificationName: String { get }
```

### rawText

The recognized raw text, excluding any concatenation separators.

<div class="sample-code-prefix"></div>
>- Objective-C
>- Swift
>
>1. 
```objc
@property (nonatomic, readonly, copy) NSString* rawText;
```
