我的应用程序使用UITextView。现在我想让UITextView有一个占位符,类似于你可以为UITextField设置的占位符。

如何做到这一点?


当前回答

我创建了一个实例变量来检查是否显示占位符:

BOOL showPlaceHolder;
UITextView * textView; // and also the textView

在viewDidLoad上设置:

[self setPlaceHolder]; 

下面是它的作用:

- (void)setPlaceholder
{
    textView.text = NSLocalizedString(@"Type your question here", @"placeholder");
    textView.textColor = [UIColor lightGrayColor];
    self.showPlaceHolder = YES; //we save the state so it won't disappear in case you want to re-edit it
}

我还创建了一个按钮来退出键盘。您不必这样做,但这里很酷的事情是,如果没有输入任何内容,占位符将再次显示

- (void)textViewDidBeginEditing:(UITextView *)txtView 
{
    self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:@"Done" style:UIBarButtonItemStyleDone target:self action:@selector(resignKeyboard)];
    if (self.showPlaceHolder == YES) 
    {
        textView.textColor = [UIColor blackColor];
        textView.text = @"";
        self.showPlaceHolder = NO;
    }
}

- (void)resignKeyboard 
{
    [textView resignFirstResponder];
    //here if you created a button like I did to resign the keyboard, you should hide it
    if (textView.text.length == 0) {
        [self setPlaceholder];
    }       
}

其他回答

我对发布的任何解决方案都不太满意,因为它们有点重。向视图中添加视图并不理想(尤其是在drawRect:)。它们都有漏洞,这也是不可接受的。

这是我的解决方案:SAMTextView

它比其他的要简单得多,因为它不使用子视图(或有泄漏)。请随意使用。

更新11/10/11:它现在是文档化的,并支持在接口生成器中使用。

更新11/24/13:指向新的回购。

下面是swift 3.1的代码

原始代码由杰森乔治在第一个答案。

不要忘记设置你的自定义类的TextView在接口生成器UIPlaceHolderTextView,然后设置占位符和占位符属性。

import UIKit

@IBDesignable
class UIPlaceHolderTextView: UITextView {

@IBInspectable var placeholder: String = ""
@IBInspectable var placeholderColor: UIColor = UIColor.lightGray

private let uiPlaceholderTextChangedAnimationDuration: Double = 0.05
private let defaultTagValue = 999

private var placeHolderLabel: UILabel?

override func awakeFromNib() {
    super.awakeFromNib()
    NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(
        self,
        selector: #selector(textChanged),
        name: NSNotification.Name.UITextViewTextDidChange,
        object: nil
    )
}

override init(frame: CGRect, textContainer: NSTextContainer?) {
    super.init(frame: frame, textContainer: textContainer)
    NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(
        self,
        selector: #selector(textChanged),
        name: NSNotification.Name.UITextViewTextDidChange,
        object: nil
    )
}

required init?(coder aDecoder: NSCoder) {
    super.init(coder: aDecoder)
    NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(
        self,
        selector: #selector(textChanged),
        name: NSNotification.Name.UITextViewTextDidChange,
        object: nil
    )
}

deinit {
    NotificationCenter.default.removeObserver(
        self,
        name: NSNotification.Name.UITextViewTextDidChange,
        object: nil
    )
}

@objc private func textChanged() {
    guard !placeholder.isEmpty else {
        return
    }
    UIView.animate(withDuration: uiPlaceholderTextChangedAnimationDuration) {
        if self.text.isEmpty {
            self.viewWithTag(self.defaultTagValue)?.alpha = CGFloat(1.0)
        }
        else {
            self.viewWithTag(self.defaultTagValue)?.alpha = CGFloat(0.0)
        }
    }
}

override var text: String! {
    didSet{
        super.text = text
        textChanged()
    }
}

override func draw(_ rect: CGRect) {
    if !placeholder.isEmpty {
        if placeHolderLabel == nil {
            placeHolderLabel = UILabel.init(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 8, width: bounds.size.width - 16, height: 0))
            placeHolderLabel!.lineBreakMode = .byWordWrapping
            placeHolderLabel!.numberOfLines = 0
            placeHolderLabel!.font = font
            placeHolderLabel!.backgroundColor = UIColor.clear
            placeHolderLabel!.textColor = placeholderColor
            placeHolderLabel!.alpha = 0
            placeHolderLabel!.tag = defaultTagValue
            self.addSubview(placeHolderLabel!)
        }

        placeHolderLabel!.text = placeholder
        placeHolderLabel!.sizeToFit()
        self.sendSubview(toBack: placeHolderLabel!)

        if text.isEmpty && !placeholder.isEmpty {
            viewWithTag(defaultTagValue)?.alpha = 1.0
        }
    }

    super.draw(rect)
}
}

你可以在UITextView上设置标签

[UITextView addSubView:lblPlaceHoldaer];

并隐藏在TextViewdidChange方法上。

这是一个简单易行的方法。

这里还有另一种方法,它复制了UITextField占位符的轻微缩进:

将UITextField拖到UITextView的右边,这样它们的左上角就对齐了。将占位符文本添加到文本字段。

在viewDidLoad中添加:

[tView setDelegate:self];
tView.contentInset = UIEdgeInsetsMake(-8,-8,0,0);
tView.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];

然后添加:

- (void)textViewDidChange:(UITextView *)textView {
    if (textView.text.length == 0) {
        textView.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];            
    } else {
        textView.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
    }
}

这里有一个简单而聪明的方法来获得完美的行为。

让我们借用UITextField中的占位符。

Set up a textField and set its text transparent. self.placeholderTextField = [[UITextField alloc] init]; /* adjust the frame to fit it in the first line of your textView */ self.placeholderTextField.frame = CGRectMake(0.0, 0.0, yourTextView.width, 30.0); self.placeholderTextField.textColor = [UIColor clearColor]; self.placeholderTextField.userInteractionEnabled = NO; self.placeholderTextField.font = yourTextView.font; self.placeholderTextField.placeholder = @"sample placeholder"; [yourTextView addSubview:self.placeholderTextField]; Set textView's delegate and synchronize the textField and textView. yourTextView.delegate = self; then - (void)textViewDidChange:(UITextView *)textView { self.placeholderTextField.text = textView.text; } That's all.
