UITextView don't show text

I have a TextView in my xib file.

After I assign text for it, it doesn't show the text till I double click it, and actually change the selection of the text:

Before double click:

After double click:

enter image description here

After changing selection size:

Do you have any idea, how to show text from the beginning?

Thanks

In my case text was long and it was trimming from end. I was setting text first then font and colour. I Set font first then text. It works for me.

I had a similar bug, but it happened when I made the text unselectable. Once I made it selectable again(checked in nib), it fixed the text again. While this isn't a solution to this bug (unless making it unselectable also fixes your problem), hopefully it will help others.

We found the solution. This situation happens, when you try to update the txt before the view is visible.

We override the function viewDidAppear, and did this code: 

// To fix the bug of not showing text in textView
        self.txtViewShowDetails.text = nil;
        self.txtViewShowDetails.text = self.mediaItem.mediaDescription;
        [self.txtViewShowDetails setContentOffset:CGPointZero];

If the view is animated, or inside animated controlView, we have to call the viewDidAppear after animation finished.

think you have set TextView custom font in IB .so you need to set custom font in code.Please set system font in IB and check in both device

TextView.font=[UIFont fontWithName:@"HelveticaNeue-Medium" size:17.0];
