这是我发现的最快的方法，不需要做任何子类:

UIView *spacerView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 10., 10.)];
[textField setLeftViewMode:UITextFieldViewModeAlways];
[textField setLeftView:spacerView];

迅速:

let spacerView = UIView(frame:CGRect(x:0, y:0, width:10, height:10))
textField.leftViewMode = UITextFieldViewMode.Always
textField.leftView = spacerView

Swift 3 /可在界面构建器中设计/单独的水平和垂直昆虫/可用

@IBDesignable
class TextFieldWithPadding: UITextField {

@IBInspectable var horizontalInset: CGFloat = 0
@IBInspectable var verticalInset: CGFloat = 0

override func textRect(forBounds bounds: CGRect) -> CGRect {
    return bounds.insetBy(dx: horizontalInset, dy: verticalInset)
}

override func editingRect(forBounds bounds: CGRect) -> CGRect {
    return bounds.insetBy(dx: horizontalInset , dy: verticalInset)
}

override func placeholderRect(forBounds bounds: CGRect) -> CGRect {
    return bounds.insetBy(dx: horizontalInset, dy: verticalInset)
}
}

我在IB中做了这个，我在textView后面创建了一个UIView，它有点长。与textField背景颜色设置为清除。

下面是一个全面的Swift答案，包括一个leftView(自定义图标)和一个自定义清除按钮，两者都设置在界面生成器中，具有可定制的insets。

import UIKit

@IBDesignable
class InsetTextField: UITextField {
@IBInspectable var leftInset:CGFloat = 0
@IBInspectable var rightInset:CGFloat = 0
@IBInspectable var icon:UIImage? { didSet {
    let imageView = UIImageView(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 16, height: 16))
    imageView.image = icon
    self.leftView = imageView
    self.leftViewMode = .Always
} }

@IBInspectable var clearButton:UIImage? { didSet {
    let button = UIButton(type: .Custom)
    button.setImage(clearButton, forState: .Normal)
    button.addTarget(self, action: "clear", forControlEvents: UIControlEvents.TouchUpInside)
    button.frame = CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 18, height: 18)
    self.rightView = button
    self.rightViewMode = .WhileEditing
} }

func clear() {
    self.text = ""
}

override func leftViewRectForBounds(bounds: CGRect) -> CGRect {
    var height:CGFloat = 0
    var width:CGFloat = 0
    if let leftView = self.leftView {
        height = leftView.bounds.height
        width = leftView.bounds.width
    }

    return CGRect(x: leftInset, y: bounds.height/2 - height/2, width: width, height: height)
}

override func rightViewRectForBounds(bounds: CGRect) -> CGRect {
    var height:CGFloat = 0
    var width:CGFloat = 0
    if let rightView = self.rightView {
        height = rightView.bounds.height
        width = rightView.bounds.width
    }

    return CGRect(x: bounds.width - width - rightInset, y: bounds.height/2 - height/2, width: width, height: height)
}

}

This is not as short as the other examples, but takes an entirely different approach to solving this problem. Note, the caret will still begin flush to the left edge but the text will be properly indented when typed/displayed. This works without subclassing if your looking for just a left margin and you are already using UITextFieldDelegate for your text fields. You need to set both the default text attributes and the typing attributes. You set the default text attributes when you create the text field. The typing attributes you need to set in the delegate. If you are also using a placeholder you will want to set that to the same margin as well. Putting it altogether you get something like this.

首先在UITextField类上创建一个类别。

//  UITextField+TextAttributes.h

#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>

@interface UITextField (TextAttributes)

- (void)setIndent:(CGFloat)indent;

@end


//  UITextField+TextAttributes.m
#import "UITextField+TextAttributes.h"

@implementation UITextField (TextAttributes)

- (void)setTextAttributes:(NSDictionary*)textAttributes indent:(CGFloat)indent
{
    if (!textAttributes) return;

    NSMutableParagraphStyle *paragraphStyle = [textAttributes objectForKey:NSParagraphStyleAttributeName];
    paragraphStyle.firstLineHeadIndent = indent;
    paragraphStyle.headIndent = indent;
}

- (void)setIndent:(CGFloat)indent
{
   [self setTextAttributes:self.defaultTextAttributes indent:indent];
   [self setTextAttributes:self.typingAttributes indent:indent];
}

@end

然后，如果您使用放置占位符，请确保使用带有属性的占位符设置相同的缩进。创建一个具有正确属性的默认属性字典，如下所示:

NSMutableParagraphStyle *paragraphStyle = [[NSMutableParagraphStyle alloc] init];
paragraphStyle.firstLineHeadIndent = 7;
paragraphStyle.headIndent = 7;
NSDictionary *placeholderAttributes = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys: paragraphStyle, NSParagraphStyleAttributeName, nil];

然后，导入上述类别，每当你创建一个文本字段设置默认缩进，委托和使用默认占位符属性上面定义。例如:

UITextField *textField = [[UITextField alloc] init];
textField.indent = 7;
textField.delegate = self;
textField.attributedPlaceholder = [[NSAttributedString alloc] initWithString:@"Placeholder Text" attributes:placeholderAttributes];

最后，在委托中，实现textFieldDidBeginEditing方法，就像这样:

- (void)textFieldDidBeginEditing:(UITextField *)textField
{
    textField.indent = 7;
}

我发现了罗伯托发布的选项。buratti是最快的解决方案，这里是Swift:

let leftView = UIView(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 10, height: textField.frame.size.height))
leftView.backgroundColor = textField.backgroundColor
textField.leftView = leftView
textField.leftViewMode = UITextField.ViewMode.always
