Vertically expanding fieldEditor for an NSTextFieldCell

Question

NSWindow s have a "field editor" associated with them, which is an NSText that appears in the same place as a NSTextField or NSTextFieldCell when the user focuses on the aforementioned control.

Field editors have the same size as the NSTextField or NSTextFieldCell . As the user enters more text, I'd need the field editor to expand.

Any tips on how to accomplish this?

Answer 1

You could take a look at IFVerticallyExpandingTextField . The code is a bit old (and so is your question), and not sure if it's still useable with the current API, but maybe it will get you started.
