Question

I have the code as below for my UITextView set up.

CGRect itemDescFrame = CGRectMake(20, 160, 280, 200);
UITextView *itemDesc = [[UITextView alloc] initWithFrame:itemDescFrame];
...
itemDesc.editable = NO;
itemDesc.scrollEnabled = NO;
...

I have disabled the UITextView scroll bar, however some of the content on the bottom is being hidden. How can I set the UITextView height to fit to the content height?

Thanks

UPDATE:

NSLog(@"frame %@", itemDesc.frame.size.height);
NSLog(@"content %@", itemDesc.contentSize.height);

Result:

2011-10-11 11:00:18.010 abc[1606:207] frame 200.000000
2011-10-11 11:00:18.010 abc[1606:207] content 200.000000

As a subclass of UIScrollView, UITextView has a property called contentSize which, in the case of a UITextView, should be the size that the text occupies after it is is placed in the view. Try setting the height of the text view’s frame to the height of contentSize.
