[TextInput] Multiline placeholder position when default font-size is changed
See original GitHub issueI changed TextInput multiline={true} default font to fontFamily: 'Iowan Old Style', and text placeholder is a few pixels below than written text. Text is jumping when I enter first character into TextInput.
The cause is _contentInset.top in RCTTextView.m.
If anyone wants to use ‘Iowan Old Style’ and have the same problem you can change the value to - 7 and restart Xcode.
Not a best solution but it works.
