I'd forgotten that when I created the web view, I set the autoresizing flags so the height and width are flexible. Here is the new windowDidFinishLoad:
- (void) webViewDidFinishLoad: (UIWebView *) webView
{
CGRect myFrame = self.frame;
myFrame.size.height = self.preferredHeight;
self.frame = myFrame;
}
With this arrangement, the overlay view and its gradient remain shorter than the 149 points returned by .preferred height. The web view is now the same too-short size.

Upon webViewDidFinishLoad:, the overlay asks the web view for the height of its contents, and adjusts the heights of the web view, and a gradient layer, and itself to the content height. See the code at the end of this message.

What I see is that the overlay, its root layer, the web view, and the gradient layer get initial heights of 100, but once webViewDidFinishLoad: is called, the heights are set to 149. Nothing else. -setTransform: is never called on the layers or the view.

The overlay's root and the gradient display at 113 points height. The layers' bounds and frames were not changed from a height of 149.
