Large Text Being Cut Off in UITextView That is Inside UIScrollView

Question

I\'m having a serious problem that I just can\'t seem to fix and it\'s driving me insane for the last two days. I have searched far and wide and I can\'t find a solution, e

Answer 1

Definitely iOS7. I had this same problem applying to all UITextViews that were resized, both xib and code generated. I found the textContainer.size needed adjusting after UITextView frame was changed.

I created this category code to adjust the textContainer.size but it also seems to need adjusting after setting the text value as well, so I have to call adjustAfterFrameChange after any text changes if they are not followed by setting the frame size. This code makes the assumption that UITextView is not doing anything with setFrame: itself so take out setFrame: and call adjustAfterFrameChange manually if you want to avoid that risk

Edit: changed

self.textContainer.size = self.frame.size; // fix for cut off text

to

self.textContainer.size = self.contentSize; // fix for cut off text

@interface UITextView(Extras)

- (void)adjustAfterFrameChange;

@end



@implementation UITextView(Extras)

- (void)adjustAfterFrameChange {
#if defined(__IPHONE_7_0) && __IPHONE_OS_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED >= __IPHONE_7_0
    if ([self respondsToSelector:@selector(textContainer)])
        self.textContainer.size = self.contentSize; // fix for cut off text
#endif
}


- (void)setFrame:(CGRect)frame {
    [super setFrame:frame];

    [self adjustAfterFrameChange];
}

@end
