Not content auto scroll-down when typing about react-native-autogrow-textinput

[artald]

Actually, the solution of letting the input grow indefinitely is a common solution and depending on your use-case, this is probably the best solution UX-wise.

Regarding the scrolling, as far as I know this is an issue with RN and not related to this package which only utilizes the available callbacks from RN TextInput. That said, I recently added a custom native solution that will auto scroll to the text input caret in case it is covered by the keyboard (useful if you have a form-like kind of screen that has an auto-growing field). Not sure if this will help your case but you can try it by linking the AutoGrowTextInput ios project (only available on iOS at the moment).

I'm afraid it's a TextInput limit.

I think that part was working in TextInput.

It does not work for me... ah, I am using react-native 0.47

[janaka120]

sorry about that. I am using RN-0.38

[artald]

@janaka120 you're using the maxHeight prop which sets a limit for the growing. You can either increase it or remove it completely.

[antonioturdo]

I think that is not a solution. It should be possibile to limit the height of the component, and still see text you are typing.

I agree this is a RN issue. I was not criticizing this package.
