How to change textfield height for an ipad using interface builder?

Question

We're using Interface Builder for developing an app for the iPad and we can't figure out how to increase the height of the textfields.

When we were using IB to develop an application for osx, you could go to the textfields attributes and under the control section you could set line break to word wrap instead of clip.

When we try to use Interface Builder for iPad applications though, it doesn't have the option of changing linebreak style under attributes-->control.

Is there any way to set the height using Interface Builder or do you have to set that in the code?

Answer 1

iOS UITextFields are single line only and have a fixed height.

If you want a multi-line, variable-height text entry field then use UITextView.
