Multi-line/Autoresizing UITextView similar as in the SMS-app. The example project mimicks the look of Apple's SMS-app.
int maxNumberOfLines; // Stops growing at this amount of lines. int minNumberOfLines; // Starts growing at this amount of lines. int maxHeight; // Specify the maximum height in points instead of lines. int minHeight; // Specify the minimum height in points instead of lines. BOOL animateHeightChange; // Animate the growing NSTimeInterval animationDuration; // Adjust the duration of the growth animation.
NSString *text; UIFont *font; UIColor *textColor; NSTextAlignment textAlignment; NSRange selectedRange; BOOL editable; UIDataDetectorTypes dataDetectorTypes; UIReturnKeyType returnKeyType;
If you want to set other UITextView properties, use .internalTextView
-(BOOL)growingTextViewShouldBeginEditing:(HPGrowingTextView *)growingTextView; -(BOOL)growingTextViewShouldEndEditing:(HPGrowingTextView *)growingTextView; -(void)growingTextViewDidBeginEditing:(HPGrowingTextView *)growingTextView; -(void)growingTextViewDidEndEditing:(HPGrowingTextView *)growingTextView; -(BOOL)growingTextView:(HPGrowingTextView *)growingTextView shouldChangeTextInRange:(NSRange)range replacementText:(NSString *)text; -(void)growingTextViewDidChange:(HPGrowingTextView *)growingTextView; // Called WITHIN animation block! -(void)growingTextView:(HPGrowingTextView *)growingTextView willChangeHeight:(float)height; // Called after animation -(void)growingTextView:(HPGrowingTextView *)growingTextView didChangeHeight:(float)height; -(void)growingTextViewDidChangeSelection:(HPGrowingTextView *)growingTextView; -(BOOL)growingTextViewShouldReturn:(HPGrowingTextView *)growingTextView;
