Question

I have the following code:

UIImageView *imgView = [[UIImageView alloc]initWithFrame: description.frame];
imgView.image = [UIImage imageNamed: @"textview.png"];
[description addSubview: imgView];
[description sendSubviewToBack: imgView];
[imgView release];

where description here is a UITextView. I have an image that I would like to set as the background of this. However the resulting interface looks like this:

The size of the image is exactly the same as the size of the UITextView

Answer 1

UIImageView *imgView = [[UIImageView alloc]initWithFrame: CGRectMake(0,0,description.frame.size.width,description.frame.size.height)];
imgView.image = [UIImage imageNamed: @"textview.png"];
[description addSubview: imgView];
[description sendSubviewToBack: imgView];
[imgView release];

the image is not placed at right place because your description.frame.origin.x != 0, its due to this reason you are getting bug.
