I want to present text in a UITextView using SwiftUI. I'm using UIViewRepresentable and having issues with the width when it exceeds the bounds of the scrollView. I would like if to wrap the text but instead it just continues on one long line and the left and right are not visible:
This is my code:
struct ContentView: View {
var messages = ["here is some long text to show the textView is not wrapping it's content"]
var body: some View {
GeometryReader { geometry in
VStack(spacing: 0) {
ScrollView(.vertical) {
ScrollViewReader { scrollView in
ZStack {
LazyVStack {
ForEach(messages, id: \.self) { message in
TextView(text: message)
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
struct TextView: UIViewRepresentable {
var text: String
func makeUIView(context: Context) -> UITextView {
let textView = UITextView()
textView.font = UIFont.preferredFont(forTextStyle: UIFont.TextStyle.body)
textView.isScrollEnabled = false
textView.backgroundColor = .clear
textView.isEditable = false
textView.clipsToBounds = true
textView.isEditable = false
textView.textContainerInset = UIEdgeInsets(top: 8, left: 8, bottom: 8, right: 8)
textView.backgroundColor = #colorLiteral(red: 0.03137254902, green: 0.4980392157, blue: 0.9960784314, alpha: 1)
textView.textColor = UIColor.white
textView.text = text
return textView
}
func updateUIView(_ uiView: UITextView, context: Context) {
}
}
I'm wondering if this has something to do with the scrollView. And either way I would like to know if there is a fix to this? I tried setting the frame width to geometry.size.width but that did nothing.
