So, can anyone tell me why all these fell through so badly, and what

The true straightforward way to do this is with -sizeToFit.
-sizeWithAttributes: will give you the size of the string,
but what you appear to want here is to size the textfield, which is
not the same thing.
Coming into this discussion a little late . . .
A little experimenting suggests to me that -sizeWithAttributes:
appears to
not really give you the *real* size of the string (by which I think you
might mean the measured size of the glyphs indicated by that string).
The
size appears to contain an advance or right-side bearing space after
the final character. So the size looks like it's some number of units
bigger than the strict bounding box of the string of glyphs.
I would appreciate some ideas on how to find a *real* bounding box for
a string.
