iOS 7 - UITextView size font to fit all text into view (no scroll)

Question

I am trying to find a non-deprecated method to size the font of a textview down so that all text fits in the textview without requiring scrolling.

The method \'sizeWithF

Answer 1

UITextView is subclass of UIScrollView -> so you can check the contentSize of the scrollable area after you set your text or font into textView.

textView.text = quote;
do
{
    textView.font = [UIFont fontWithName:@"Interstate" size:fontSize];
    [textView layoutIfNeeded];
    if (textView.contentSize.height <= newView.frame.size.height) {
        break;
    }
    fontSize -= 1.0;
} while (fontSize >= minSize);

That should work... Probably it would work even without [textView layoutIfNeeded].
