How do I size a UITextView to its content on iOS 7?

Question

I\'ve been using the accepted answer here for years.

On iOS 7, the contentSize.height becomes the frame.height-8, regardless of text content.

What\'s a worki

Answer 1

this method seems to work.

// Code from apple developer forum - @Steve Krulewitz, @Mark Marszal, @Eric Silverberg
- (CGFloat)measureHeight
{
if ([self respondsToSelector:@selector(snapshotViewAfterScreenUpdates:)])
{
    CGRect frame = internalTextView.bounds;
    CGSize fudgeFactor;
    // The padding added around the text on iOS6 and iOS7 is different.
    fudgeFactor = CGSizeMake(10.0, 16.0);

    frame.size.height -= fudgeFactor.height;
    frame.size.width -= fudgeFactor.width;

    NSMutableAttributedString* textToMeasure;
    if(internalTextView.attributedText && internalTextView.attributedText.length > 0){
        textToMeasure = [[NSMutableAttributedString alloc] initWithAttributedString:internalTextView.attributedText];
    }
    else{
        textToMeasure = [[NSMutableAttributedString alloc] initWithString:internalTextView.text];
        [textToMeasure addAttribute:NSFontAttributeName value:internalTextView.font range:NSMakeRange(0, textToMeasure.length)];
    }

    if ([textToMeasure.string hasSuffix:@"\n"])
    {
        [textToMeasure appendAttributedString:[[NSAttributedString alloc] initWithString:@"-" attributes:@{NSFontAttributeName: internalTextView.font}]];
    }

    // NSAttributedString class method: boundingRectWithSize:options:context is
    // available only on ios7.0 sdk.
    CGRect size = [textToMeasure boundingRectWithSize:CGSizeMake(CGRectGetWidth(frame), MAXFLOAT)
                                              options:NSStringDrawingUsesLineFragmentOrigin
                                              context:nil];

    return CGRectGetHeight(size) + fudgeFactor.height;
}
else
{
    return self.internalTextView.contentSize.height;
}
}
