Shrink textview when when editing is finished

Question

I have a multi-line text view that can get quite large. When the user is actually editing it I want to expand as needed -- but then collapse it again down to a single line when it's no longer being edited.

Example: During the edit the textview may have many lines and look like this

Lots of really long notes on multiple liness

When focus is lost, I want to contract the view back to single line so that look like: Lots of really long...

Any suggestions?
