I would like to have a UITextField which aligns to the bottom and to the right. I would like the majority of text to be on the bottom line with putting extra words on the next line as needed. I have been messing around with different layoutSubviews implementations to achieve this functionality. However, the text always fills the top lines first and then falls onto the bottom lines. Would it be possible to implement drawTectInRect: somehow to achieve this? Any direction would be greatly appreciated.
