UITextView text cut off when there is a large amount of text

Question

I have a UITableViewCell subclass that contains a UITextView where scrolling is turned off. I set its frame like this, in my table view cell layoutSubviews method:

Answer 1

According to this and similar answers, the problem could be that "the correct contentSize is only available after the UITextView has been added to the view ... Prior to that it is equal to frame.size"

I'd suggest you to calculate the height in a different way, like -sizeWithFont: or -sizeTofit

Answer 2

I had the same issue and resolved it working on the textView padding (in swift5):

yourTextView.textContainerInset = UIEdgeInsets(top: 5, left: 5, bottom: 5, right: 5)

Hope it can help :)

Answer 3

Use this to get the textSize

// find the text width; so that btn width can be calculate
CGSize textSize = [@"YOUR TEXT" sizeWithFont:[UIFont fontWithName:@"Arial" size:20.0] 
                              constrainedToSize:CGSizeMake(320.0f, 99999.0f)
                                  lineBreakMode:UILineBreakModeWordWrap];

and then set height using this as :

CGRect frame = self.bodyTextView.frame;

frame.size = textSize;
self.bodyTextView.frame = frame;

Hope it helps you.
