# How to print CGRect value using NSLog?

I want to know how can I [print](https://www.mindstick.com/blog/301752/types-of-3d-printing-technology) CGRect [attributes](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/13105/2-attributes-that-make-your-odoo-ecommerce-theme-productive-and-engaging)([frame](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/749/html-frames)) [values](https://www.mindstick.com/forum/327/sum-textbox-values) on [console](https://www.mindstick.com/blog/210/the-console-class) using NSLog() method.\
I tried to see [properties](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/23331/nootropics-7-different-types-and-their-unique-properties) of CGRect, like this:

```
NSLog(@"CGRect Value: %@", rect);
```

But, I got [error](https://yourviews.mindstick.com/view/88527/fixing-quickbooks-error-4120-reinstalling-vs-repairing) which will says CGRect is not an id type. So, how can I print the frame of CGRect for getting attributes.

Yes, we can't print CGRect attributes directly in NSLog.\
for that, cocoa provides us a method NSStringFromCGRect, because it will convert the CG structs into nsstring- below we are provided an example:

```
NSLog(@"CGRect Value: %@", NSStringFromCGRect(rect));
```

I'm providing some other functions which can help you to print CG struct values:\
1. NSStringFromCGRect\
2. NSStringFromCGSize\
3. NSStringFromCGPoint\
4. NSStringFromUIEdgeInsets\
5. NSStringFromCGAffineTransform
