I have been trying to get a UITextView
to resize all week. I don't see how this should be done, so I have decided to include practically all relevant code.
I have this conversation view:
This conversationview is a UIViewController
with a UITableView
inside (using constraints). I have a custom UIView
subclass ConversationToolbar
set as inputAccessoryView
(the UIViewController
containing it can become the first responder, so the view is visible at all times), that contains 2 subviews. One for the UITextView
and left and right buttons, and one for the emoticons. The emoticons only show when the left button is tapped:
And when one is chosen, it shows in a floating label:
I now have trouble to resize this UITextView
when multiple lines are used. I have tried calculating all frames myself, but then that seems to conflict with my constraints in some weird way. Almost always is the UITextView
either too small or it resizes only after I press another key to update the view. Or the UITextView
gets bigger over the keyboard, or it slides out of view when the keyboard is dismissed.
I have removed all resizing abilities from my code and I would like to know what I need to do to make this resize.
In my ConversationViewController
:
var toolbar: ConversationToolbar!
override var inputAccessoryView: UIView! {
get {
if toolbar == nil {
toolbar = NSBundle.mainBundle().loadNibNamed("ConversationToolbar", owner: nil, options: nil).last! as ConversationToolbar
toolbar.frame.size = CGSize(width: UIScreen.mainScreen().bounds.size.width, height: 80)
toolbar.delegate = self
toolbar.setDraft(conversation.draft)
}
return toolbar
}
}
With ConversationToolbar.xib
being:
