Multi-line NSTextField not working

Question

I have been trying to get a multi-line NSTextField to lay out automatically using preferredMaxLayoutWidth. I can’t figure out why this doesn’t work

Answer 1

There is an another solution for making the NSTextField multiline with using auto constraints and Interface Builder.

• Choose Wraps from Layout
• Choose Character Wrap from Line Break option
• Uses Single Line Mode must be unchecked

And add below sample constraints

• Trailing Space
• Leading Space
• Bottom Space
• Top Space

with the constants that you want. And don't add any specific height constraint.

Below some screenshots which might be helpful.
