POResizing UITextView automatically
text
Body
copied!<p>I'm a beginner in iOS development, and I have trouble resizing automatically a UITextView.</p> <p>I created a Master-Detail Application. On my DetailViewController.xib I added a ScrollView that encompass a Label for the title, an image and under this image, a TextView in order to put a description that the user posted.<br> The problem is that the description depends on what my WebService returns, so I need it to be resized automatically.</p> <p>Here's my code:</p> <pre><code>- (void)configureView { ... self.detailDescriptionTextView.text = [self.detailItem valueForKey:@"adDescription"]; CGRect frame = self.detailDescriptionTextView.frame; frame.size.height = self.detailDescriptionTextView.contentSize.height; self.detailDescriptionTextView.frame = frame; ) </code></pre> <p>The problem is that the TextView gets the content correctly but it doesn't resize at all.. I looked for an answer for a while and most of answers are what I tried... </p> <p>Thanks for your help. </p> <p>EDIT : I realized something. In order to put some elements under the description, I've put a very small TextView for the description in the Interface Builder, is it a problem? If it is, how could I put other elements under this TextView, because there would be no more space on the Interface Builder no? </p> <p>EDIT 2 : I finally succeeded. It seems like the problem was that I created the TextView by Interface Builder. By creating it programmatically, it worked perfectly. Here's my code if it can help someone: </p> <pre><code>UITextView *textView = [[UITextView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(20, 195, 280, 10)]; textView.text = [self.detailItem valueForKey:@"adDescription"]; textView.font = [UIFont fontWithName:@"Hevlatica" size:14]; [self.scrollView addSubview:textView]; CGRect descriptionFrame = textView.frame; descriptionFrame.size.height = textView.contentSize.height; textView.frame = descriptionFrame; </code></pre> <p>Thanks for your help.</p>
