If you are not familiar with the field editor, I recommend you
Hi Gary,
You're right, sizeToFit was not correct. I ended up following this to get
NSTextView to resize correctly -

Hi,
I currently have a custom subclassed NSTextView as a subview of an NSView

I'm trying to to dynamically resize the minimum width of the NSTextView
based on the string input so that view resizes to fit (the height is always
one line).
This is the NSTextView init:
