To define a TextEditor in SwiftUI with word wrap and a maximum of 4 lines of its content visible, you can use the .frame modifier to limit the height of the TextEditor. Here is an example:
import SwiftUI
struct ContentView: View {
@State private var text: String = ""
var body: some View {
TextEditor(text: $text)
.frame(maxHeight: 100) // Adjust the height as needed to fit 4 lines
.lineLimit(4) // This ensures the TextEditor does not grow beyond 4 lines
.padding()
.border(Color.gray, width: 1)
}
}
In this example:
- The
.frame(maxHeight: 100)limits the height of theTextEditor. You may need to adjust the height value to fit exactly 4 lines based on your font size and line spacing. - The
.lineLimit(4)ensures that theTextEditordoes not grow beyond 4 lines.

Get started with Dynamic Type
Dynamic Type lets people choose their preferred text size across the system and all of their apps. To help you get started supporting Dynamic Type, we’ll cover the fundamentals: How it works, how to find issues with scaling text in your app, and how to take practical steps using SwiftUI and UIKit to create a great Dynamic Type experience. We’ll also show how you can best use the Large Content Viewer to make navigation controls accessible to everyone.
