Question

This piece of code dispalys a document in a scrollable UIWebView:

- (void)viewDidLoad
{
   [super viewDidLoad];   
   _myWebView = [[UIWebView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 760)];   
   NSURL *myUrl = [NSURL URLWithString:@"http://pathToDoc/myDoc.doc"];  
   NSURLRequest *myRequest = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:myUrl];
   [_myWebView loadRequest:myRequest];    
   [self.view addSubview:_myWebView]; 

}

This works fine except when trying to display a landscape document which has been created with custom margins which are smaller than standard.

The result is the contents of the right-hand edge of the document are chopped off.

Is there any way to display the whole document?

Answer 1

Well, after several months of frustration with this (can barely believe how long it took!), it turned out to need only a single line of code to solve the problem.

_documentWebView.autoresizingMask = UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleWidth;

Add that just after the last line and suddenly all is well in the world.
