I can get the UIPinchGestureRecognizer handler to work with scaling an object but I don't want to scale I want to change the size. For example I have a UITextView and I've attacked a UIPinchGestureRecognizer gesture to it and if the user pinches I want to change the width of the textview to match the pinch. I don't want to scale it so the uitextview is larger(zooming).
