Autosize UITextView dependent on text

Question

I want to adjust my UITextView dependent on the text size,

CGRect frame = _text.frame;
frame.size.height = (_text.contentSize.height);
frame.size.width = _text.contentSize.width;
_text.frame = frame;

I've tried this code but the problem is that even if there are 5 lines of text it only shows 2 lines (you can scroll for the rest of the text). How do I fix that it just shows 5 lines?

use this code

UIFont font = _text.font;
CGSize textsize = [_text.text sizeWithFont:font constrainedToSize:CGSizeMake(_text.frame.size.width,999) lineBreakMode: NSLineBreakByTruncatingTail]; 

[_text setFrame:CGRectMake(_text.frame.origin.x,_text.frame.origin.y,_text.frame.size.width, textsize.height)];

UILineBreakModeTailTruncation is deprecated in iOS6 ... – Shinonuma Jun 14 '13 at 12:34
I'll use NSLineBreakByTruncatingTail instead – Shinonuma Jun 14 '13 at 12:35
However this doesn't work, it just shows me 1 line of text now and a little piece of the next line... :\ – Shinonuma Jun 14 '13 at 12:38
use word wrapping or char wrapping instead. – Ishu Jun 14 '13 at 13:11
