I have a text, which I would like to display in a text field. I would

text exactly fits using my font attributes.
I think this could be made using a constellation of NSTextContainer,
NSLayoutManager, NSTextStorage and possible other classes, but I don't
see how they fit.
Assuming you have a text container:
rect = [[textContainer layoutManager]
usedRectForTextContainer:textContainer];
