Determining whether text fully fits in a box

Hi all,

What's the easiest way to tell if a given bit of text fits a text container? I see there is a delegate method that is called when text doesn't fit, but it would be more convenient if I could just query the layout manager and ask it whether it fitted the text or it overflowed. I need to draw some sort of visual indication that there is more text than is visible, much like InDesign does it.

I'm handling all my own text layout with NSLayoutManager and friends, but I couldn't see an easy way to simply ask it and get a yes/no answer.
