crubio对Swift 4的答案更新

选择UITextField并打开右边的标识检查器:

单击加号按钮并添加一个新的运行时属性:placeholderLabel。textColor(代替_placeholderLabel.textColor)

使用颜色作为类型并选择颜色。

如果您运行您的项目，您将看到这些更改。

对于iOS13

+(void)ChangeplaceholderColor :(UITextField *)TxtFld andColor:(UIColor*)color { 
    NSMutableAttributedString *placeholderAttributedString = [[NSMutableAttributedString alloc] initWithAttributedString:TxtFld.attributedPlaceholder];
       [placeholderAttributedString addAttribute:NSForegroundColorAttributeName value:color range:NSMakeRange(0, [placeholderAttributedString length])];
       TxtFld.attributedPlaceholder = placeholderAttributedString;

}

为迅速

创建UITextField扩展

extension UITextField{

    func setPlaceHolderColor(){
        self.attributedPlaceholder = NSAttributedString(string: self.placeholder!, attributes: [NSForegroundColorAttributeName : UIColor.white])
    }
}

如果你是从storyboard设置的。

extension UITextField{
    @IBInspectable var placeHolderColor: UIColor? {
        get {
            return self.placeHolderColor
        }
        set {
            self.attributedPlaceholder = NSAttributedString(string:self.placeholder != nil ? self.placeholder! : "", attributes:[NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor : newValue!])
        }
    }
}

我很惊讶这里有这么多糟糕的解决方案。

这里有一个永远有效的版本。

斯威夫特4.2

extension UITextField{
    @IBInspectable var placeholderColor: UIColor {
        get {
            return self.attributedPlaceholder?.attribute(.foregroundColor, at: 0, effectiveRange: nil) as? UIColor ?? .lightText
        }
        set {
            self.attributedPlaceholder = NSAttributedString(string: self.placeholder ?? "", attributes: [.foregroundColor: newValue])
        }
    }
}

提示:如果在设置颜色后更改占位符文本-颜色将重置。

您可以使用带属性的字符串设置占位符文本。只需要把你想要的颜色传递给属性参数。

斯威夫特5:

let myTextField = UITextField(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 200, height: 30))
myTextField.backgroundColor = .blue
myTextField.attributedPlaceholder = NSAttributedString(
    string: "Placeholder Text",
    attributes: [NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor: UIColor.white]
)

斯威夫特3:

myTextField.attributedPlaceholder = NSAttributedString(
    string: "Placeholder Text",
    attributes: [NSAttributedStringKey.foregroundColor: UIColor.white]
)

年长的迅速:

myTextField.attributedPlaceholder = NSAttributedString(
    string: "Placeholder Text",
    attributes: [NSForegroundColorAttributeName: UIColor.white]
)

像这样创建UITextField扩展:

extension UITextField{
   @IBInspectable var placeHolderColor: UIColor? {
        get {
            return self.placeHolderColor
        }
        set {
            self.attributedPlaceholder = NSAttributedString(string:self.placeholder != nil ? self.placeholder! : "", attributes:[NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor: newValue!])
        }
    }
}
