I have a UIScrollView
with a block of text in a UITextView
. The text could be any amount of words coming from a server.
I want the scroll view to be the correct scroll size to match the size of the UITextView
.
What is the current practice to do this?
Screenshot:
UITextView is an extension of UIScrollView. So you can get its content size using contentSize propery.
You can use something like below to get the height for your textview
CGSize size = [@"Your string"
sizeWithFont:[UIFont fontWithName:@"TimesNewRomanPS-BoldMT" size:22]
constrainedToSize:CGSizeMake(500, CGFLOAT_MAX)];
_textView.frame = CGRectMake(x,y, width, size.height);
_scrollview.frame = CGRectMake(x,y, width, size.height);
or there is a littl hack you can use :p
Use a Label to get the height for your text view.
UILabel *tempLabel = [[UILabel alloc]initWithFrmae:_textView.bounds];
tempLabel.numberOfLines = 0; // Important to do
tempLabel.text = @"Your Text";
[tempLabel sizeToFit]; // This will resize your Label and now you can use it's height to manage your textView.
Now use this tempLabel's height
tempLabel.frame.size.height
