How do I predict the TextField height? When I initiate one, it comes with 100 height, but I want to set it to the fonts height.

I have tried the autoSize, but some times it shrinks the text field to a very tiny one, and some times it stays at fonts height, but I can’t set its width anymore…

Is there a solution to this problem?

Thanks,
