I have a UITextView which I create in Interface Builder for an iOS app.

  • 0

I have a UITextView which I create in Interface Builder for an iOS app. I checked (and double checked, and triple checked) that it is properly connected to the outlet in my code. I create a property and synthesize it, and when I run NSLog(@"%@", myTextView);, it returns the UITextView’s properties, not null. However, when I try calling [myTextView setText:@"My Text."];, it doesn’t change anything on the view. I have found many people with similar problems like this on Stackoverflow and other places on the internet, however none of the solutions there helped me. I am using Xcode 4.0.2 on Snow Leopard. I am attempting to do this in the -viewDidLoad method. What could be causing this issue?

If you need any more information about my code setup, post a comment and I will update this post.

    Are you sure the whole text view is visible on screen, and that the font color is not the same as your background?
