Trying to create a dynamic height uitextviewcell about mysforms

[atomkirk]

Give me a bit too think on this

[atomkirk]

So you want cell to change as they are typing or just on form load?

If people enter multiple lines in a textview cell, It would be nice to have the cell grow while typing with the number of lines in the textview. So the complete entered text is visible without having to scroll. I am trying to let autolayout do it's work but haven't figured it out yet...

I am getting closer to dynamic cell heights by removing

- (CGSize)collectionView:(UICollectionView *)collectionView
                  layout:(UICollectionViewLayout *)collectionViewLayout
  sizeForItemAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath

from MYSFormViewController and use preferredLayoutAttributesFittingAttributes in my cell classes...

Well, i wanted to take a look first, but i think the way i would go about it is by overriding the class method on the cell called sizeForCellWithElement or something like that. But im not sure if you would have to reload the page or what…  

i didnt know collection view cells were self sizing as well, i thought only table views in ios 8 did that. If so, once i decide to drop support for ios <8 then ill definitely do it that way.

The reason i based the forms on collection views was so that people could customize the layout of the form, so sublassing collectionviewflowlayout may be most "correct" way to solve this problem. But if youve got the project forked and are changing stuff up to make it work for you, have at it!
