Can you be more specific?

Is there a better way? As others have said, but I'll reiterate, bindings make this ridiculously easy. > *6)** **I **can't get the height of some wrapped text* > > I had to use the layout manager and some major rocket science to get this to > work right. I'm not saying Text Edit was great, but at least it knows how > tall the text field is. I have a method for doing this and once the initial data is created and cached, it takes 4 lines of code to calculate the height of text for a width. While it's not as obvious as -[NSAttributedString size], I certainly wouldn't consider it rocket science :). I believe the code originated from Apple's docs too.
