Hello, can you tell me how to make it possible to add imageview and textview to scrollview. textview should change dynamically from the text placed in it. You need to make sure that when scrolling, all the content(text and image) is scrolled, not just the text.

Something like

import ui
sv = ui.ScrollView()
sv.frame = (0,0,400,600)
iv = ui.ImageView()
iv.frame = (0,0,sv.width,200)
iv.image = ui.Image.named('test:Peppers')
sv.add_subview(iv)
tv = ui.TextView()
tv.frame = (0,iv.height,sv.width,800)
tv.text = 'a\n'*50
sv.content_size = (sv.width,iv.height+tv.height)
sv.add_subview(tv)
sv.present('sheet')

Just what me need, thank you for your help.
You can't tell me how to make a TextView dynamically change its height so that the textview itself changes its height from the text written in it.

@a9wtPrLyjKTbNH0 you could play with this script but I'm almost sure that @mikael would give a better way with his anchor module

import ui
from objc_util import *

@on_main_thread
class MyTextViewDelegate (object):
    def textview_did_change(textview):
        tvo = ObjCInstance(textview)
        cgs = tvo.sizeThatFits_(CGSize(textview.width,2000))
        textview.height = cgs.height
        sv = textview.superview
        sv.content_size = (sv.width,sv['iv'].height+textview.height+4)

sv = ui.ScrollView()
sv.frame = (0,0,400,600)
sv.background_color = 'white'
iv = ui.ImageView(name='iv')
iv.frame = (0,0,sv.width,200)
iv.image = ui.Image.named('test:Peppers')
sv.add_subview(iv)
tv = ui.TextView()
tv.delegate = MyTextViewDelegate
tv.frame = (2,iv.height+2,sv.width-4,100)
tv.border_width = 1             # only to show height automatically varying
tv.border_color = 'blue'
tv.corner_radius = 5
tv.text = 'a\n'*20
sv.add_subview(tv)
tv.delegate.textview_did_change(tv) # only to compute initial height
sv.present('sheet')

I learnt new information from your article!
