I found this answer for you from a duplicate question:

Assuming you have dynamic text in text fields, you can set the isStretchWithOverflow attribute of the <textField> element to true. This will cause the text field to expand to accomodate the text.

Make sure that any elements below the text field have a positionType of "Float", otherwise the text from the text field will be displayed "on top" of the other elements.
