Vertically expanding fieldEditor for an NSTextFieldCell

Question

NSWindows 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.
