Either I'm misunderstanding your question, or you're
misunderstanding the Geometries code. I think you want -
widthForHeight:attributes:, with the height specified for three
lines (could just take it from what IB sets for you, or first get a
heightForWidth:reallyBig, then triple that). The

Also getting the width of a string (layed out in one line if it has
no newlines) is no problem.
But I have a different problem. I try to give an ea
If you wish to vary both the width and height to be a more pleasing set of
dimensions, similar to what an alert does, try word wrapping your text into a
golden ratio rectangle using the area measurement generated by your single-line
text measurement. Of course, based on a strict interpretation

This also does not solve my problem.

text (at runtime, but the text keeps static once set). Now I want to

text is visible. The text may wrap around.
I tried a zillion things with NSTextView a
