Apparently, I'm not the only one who has experienced this. NSTextView (or NSLayoutManager) is lazy. It does stuff in the background that is driving me nuts. I need to do a full layout, not just what's visible, so I can get a reliably accurate measure of the total physical text layout length. I've tried the usual suspects such as scrollRangeToVisible and the docs-recommended glyphRangeForTextContainer, all to no avail, in an attempt to get an immediate full layout. I've even put in timer delays before measuring it. Unfortunately, NSTextView comes back into play sometime later and does a re-layout, often increasing the text frame height by as much as 50%, totally screwing up what I am doing. Manually scrolling to the end and back will trigger another (correct) layout. However, because I'm often (programmatically) replacing the displayed text, I need to accomplish this programmatically before asking for the text frame height.
Any ideas on how to force a full layout and then prevent NSTextView from further mucking with it? _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
