How to add vertical padding in STTextView?

[tunaitis]

With NSTextView, I can easily add padding using textContainerInset:

textView.textContainerInset = NSSize(width: 8, height: 8)

But STTextView doesn't have this property. The only option I found is lineFragmentPadding, which works, but only for horizontal padding:

textView.textContainer.lineFragmentPadding = 8

Is there any way to add vertical padding to STTextView?

The upper text field is based on NSTextView, and the bottom one uses STTextView.

Fixed it by setting vertical padding on the scrollview

let padding: CGFloat = 8

textView.textContainer.lineFragmentPadding = padding

scrollView.automaticallyAdjustsContentInsets = false
scrollView.contentInsets = NSEdgeInsets(top: padding, left: 0, bottom: padding, right: 0)
scrollView.scrollerInsets = NSEdgeInsets(top: -padding, left: 0, bottom: -padding, right: 0)

yes! the scrollView inset (or other parent view inset) is the way to go - if you use scrollview. I always find the textContainerInset a bit of a fake property, quite tricky to implement.
