UITextfield gets cut from the top while in editing mode - ios

I got two UITextfields with separator(UILabel) between them.
I put them all into UIStackView.
While in editing mode, content of the textfield is cut from the top, as seen in the picture below
I've found that the only way to remove this issue is to make this separator big enough, but this spoils my design.
How to fix it?
It's worth to mention my UIStackView settings:
and show how I implement this custom bottomline-style UITextfield
class CustomTextField: UITextField {
override func awakeFromNib() {
super.awakeFromNib()
let attributedString = NSAttributedString(string: self.placeholder!, attributes: [NSForegroundColorAttributeName:UIColor.lightGray, NSFontAttributeName: UIFont(name: "GothamRounded-Book", size: 18.0)! ])
self.attributedPlaceholder = attributedString
self.tintColor = UIColor.appRed
self.font = UIFont(name: "GothamRounded-Book", size: 18.0)!
self.borderStyle = .none
self.textAlignment = .center
}
override func textRect(forBounds bounds: CGRect) -> CGRect {
return bounds.insetBy(dx: 0, dy: 5)
}
override func editingRect(forBounds bounds: CGRect) -> CGRect {
return bounds.insetBy(dx: 0, dy: 5)
}
override var tintColor: UIColor! {
didSet {
setNeedsDisplay()
}
}
override func draw(_ rect: CGRect) {
let startingPoint = CGPoint(x: rect.minX, y: rect.maxY)
let endingPoint = CGPoint(x: rect.maxX, y: rect.maxY)
let path = UIBezierPath()
path.move(to: startingPoint)
path.addLine(to: endingPoint)
path.lineWidth = 2.0
tintColor.setStroke()
tintColor = UIColor.appRed
path.stroke()
}
}
Any help much appreciated
EDIT
I have another TextField like that and it works fine, but it doesn't sit inside any horizontal UIStackView. Here is the screenshot of hierarchy:

Unfortunately you need to check the size on editing
class CustomTextField: UITextField {
override func awakeFromNib() {
super.awakeFromNib()
self.addTarget(self, action: #selector(textFieldEditingChanged), for: .editingChanged)
}
func textFieldEditingChanged(_ textField: UITextField) {
textField.invalidateIntrinsicContentSize()
}
override var intrinsicContentSize: CGSize {
if isEditing {
let string = text ?? ""
let size = string.size(attributes: typingAttributes)
return CGSize(width: size.width + (rightView?.bounds.size.width ?? 0) + (leftView?.bounds.size.width ?? 0) + 2,
height: size.height)
}
return super.intrinsicContentSize
}
}

iOS: Remove default drawing of UITextField

I'm trying to create a custom text field with a suffix, and I override the draw(CGRect) method to do this. I want both the text and the suffix to align center. Calculating and drawing them works as I want, however, the default text is still there and it overlaps with my newly drawn texts. So I want to completely remove the default drawing of UITextField.
Here is my implementation:
class SuffixTextField: UITextField {
private let suffix: String
private let suffixAttributes: [NSAttributedString.Key : Any]
private let spacing: CGFloat
/// Create a text field with suffix text
/// - Parameters:
/// - suffix: The suffix text
/// - suffixAttributes: Attributes to apply to the suffix
/// - spacing: Spacing between the content and the suffix
init(suffix: String, suffixAttributes: [NSAttributedString.Key : Any], spacing: CGFloat) {
self.suffix = suffix
self.suffixAttributes = suffixAttributes
self.spacing = spacing
super.init(frame: .zero)
addTarget(self,
action: #selector(textFieldDidChange),
for: UIControl.Event.editingChanged)
}
required init?(coder: NSCoder) {
fatalError("init(coder:) has not been implemented")
}
override func draw(_ rect: CGRect) {
guard !suffix.isEmpty else {
super.draw(rect)
return
}
let text = (self.text ?? "") as NSString
let textSize = text.size(withAttributes: typingAttributes)
let fieldSize = frame.size
let suffixSize = (suffix as NSString).size(withAttributes: suffixAttributes)
func drawSuffix(xPosition: CGFloat) {
let suffixYPosition = (fieldSize.height / 2) - (suffixSize.height / 2)
let rect = CGRect(origin: .init(x: xPosition, y: suffixYPosition),
size: suffixSize)
(suffix as NSString).draw(in: rect, withAttributes: suffixAttributes)
}
switch textAlignment {
case .left:
super.draw(rect)
drawSuffix(xPosition: textSize.width + spacing)
case .center:
let textXPosition = (fieldSize.width - textSize.width - spacing - suffixSize.width) / 2
let textYPosition = (fieldSize.height - textSize.height) / 2
text.draw(in: CGRect(origin: .init(x: textXPosition, y: textYPosition), size: textSize),
withAttributes: typingAttributes)
let suffixXPosition = textXPosition + textSize.width + spacing
drawSuffix(xPosition: suffixXPosition)
default:
fatalError("Cannot handle other allignment, please implement here")
}
}
#objc private func textFieldDidChange() {
setNeedsDisplay()
}
}
You don't need to call super.draw(rect) and draw your own text as textfield will always draw its text by itself. What you can do is that you can place your suffix text accordingly and it will work.
override func draw(_ rect: CGRect) {
guard !suffix.isEmpty else {
return
}
let text = (self.text ?? "") as NSString
let textSize = text.size(withAttributes: typingAttributes)
let fieldSize = frame.size
let suffixSize = (suffix as NSString).size(withAttributes: suffixAttributes)
func drawSuffix(xPosition: CGFloat) {
let suffixYPosition = (fieldSize.height / 2) - (suffixSize.height / 2)
let rect = CGRect(origin: .init(x: xPosition, y: suffixYPosition),
size: suffixSize)
(suffix as NSString).draw(in: rect, withAttributes: suffixAttributes)
}
switch textAlignment {
case .left:
drawSuffix(xPosition: textSize.width + spacing)
case .center:
let textXPosition = (fieldSize.width - textSize.width - spacing - suffixSize.width) / 2
let suffixXPosition = textXPosition + textSize.width + spacing
drawSuffix(xPosition: suffixXPosition)
default:
fatalError("Cannot handle other allignment, please implement here")
}
}

Swift - adding clear button to UITextfield programmatically

I am having problems adding a clear button to my UITextfield.
This is my textfield:
let emailTextField: CustomTextField = {
let v = CustomTextField()
v.borderActiveColor = .white
v.borderInactiveColor = .white
v.textColor = .white
v.font = UIFont(name: "AvenirNext-Regular", size: 17)
v.placeholder = "Email-Adresse"
v.placeholderColor = .gray
v.placeholderFontScale = 1
v.clearButtonMode = UITextField.ViewMode.always
v.minimumFontSize = 13
v.borderStyle = .line
v.autocapitalizationType = .none
v.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
return v
}()
As you can see I set clearButtonMode = .always but it is not being displayed.
My CustomTextFieldClass is nothing special either:
class CustomTextField: HoshiTextField {
/// the left padding
#IBInspectable public var leftPadding: CGFloat = 0 { didSet { self.setNeedsLayout() } }
/// the right padding
#IBInspectable public var rightPadding: CGFloat = 0 { didSet { self.setNeedsLayout() } }
/// Text rectangle
///
/// - Parameter bounds: the bounds
/// - Returns: the rectangle
override public func textRect(forBounds bounds: CGRect) -> CGRect {
let originalRect: CGRect = super.editingRect(forBounds: bounds)
return CGRect(x: originalRect.origin.x + leftPadding, y: originalRect.origin.y, width: originalRect.size.width - leftPadding - rightPadding, height: originalRect.size.height)
}
/// Editing rectangle
///
/// - Parameter bounds: the bounds
/// - Returns: the rectangle
override public func editingRect(forBounds bounds: CGRect) -> CGRect {
let originalRect: CGRect = super.editingRect(forBounds: bounds)
return CGRect(x: originalRect.origin.x + leftPadding, y: originalRect.origin.y, width: originalRect.size.width - leftPadding - rightPadding, height: originalRect.size.height)
}
Does anyone know why the clear button is not being displayed???

Zoom on UIView contained in UIScrollView

I have some trouble handling zoom on UIScrollView that contains many subviews. I already saw many answers on SO, but none of them helped me.
So, basically what I'm doing is simple : I have a class called UIFreeView :
import UIKit
class UIFreeView: UIView, UIScrollViewDelegate {
var mainUIView: UIView!
var scrollView: UIScrollView!
var arrayOfView: [UIView]?
override init(frame: CGRect) {
super.init(frame: frame)
self.setupView()
}
required init?(coder aDecoder: NSCoder) {
fatalError("init(coder:) has not been implemented")
}
fileprivate func setupView() {
// MainUiView
self.mainUIView = UIView(frame: self.frame)
self.addSubview(mainUIView)
// ScrollView
self.scrollView = UIScrollView(frame: self.frame)
self.scrollView.delegate = self
self.addSubview(self.scrollView)
}
func reloadViews(postArray:[Post]?) {
if let postArray = postArray {
print("UIFreeView::reloadVIew.postArraySize = \(postArray.count)")
let size: CGFloat = 80.0
let margin: CGFloat = 20.0
scrollView.contentSize.width = (size * CGFloat(postArray.count))+(margin*CGFloat(postArray.count))
scrollView.contentSize.height = (size * CGFloat(postArray.count))+(margin*CGFloat(postArray.count))
for item in postArray {
let view = buildPostView(item)
self.scrollView.addSubview(view)
}
}
}
fileprivate func buildPostView(_ item:Post) -> UIView {
// Const
let size: CGFloat = 80.0
let margin: CGFloat = 5.0
// Var
let view = UIView()
let textView = UITextView()
let backgroundImageView = UIImageView()
// Setup view
let x = CGFloat(UInt64.random(lower: UInt64(0), upper: UInt64(self.scrollView.contentSize.width)))
let y = CGFloat(UInt64.random(lower: UInt64(0), upper: UInt64(self.scrollView.contentSize.height)))
view.frame = CGRect(x: x,
y: y,
width: size,
height: size)
// Setup background view
backgroundImageView.frame = CGRect(x: 0,
y: 0,
width: view.frame.size.width,
height: view.frame.size.height)
var bgName = ""
if (item.isFromCurrentUser) {
bgName = "post-it-orange"
} else {
bgName = "post-it-white"
}
backgroundImageView.contentMode = .scaleAspectFit
backgroundImageView.image = UIImage(named: bgName)
view.addSubview(backgroundImageView)
// Setup text view
textView.frame = CGRect(x: margin,
y: margin,
width: view.frame.size.width - margin*2,
height: view.frame.size.height - margin*2)
textView.backgroundColor = UIColor.clear
textView.text = item.content
textView.isEditable = false
textView.isSelectable = false
textView.isUserInteractionEnabled = false
view.addSubview(textView)
let gestureRecognizer = UIPanGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: #selector(handlePan))
view.addGestureRecognizer(gestureRecognizer)
return view
}
func viewForZooming(in scrollView: UIScrollView) -> UIView? {
return self.scrollView
}
func handlePan(_ gestureRecognizer: UIPanGestureRecognizer) {
if gestureRecognizer.state == .began || gestureRecognizer.state == .changed {
let translation = gestureRecognizer.translation(in: self.scrollView)
// note: 'view' is optional and need to be unwrapped
gestureRecognizer.view!.center = CGPoint(x: gestureRecognizer.view!.center.x + translation.x, y: gestureRecognizer.view!.center.y + translation.y)
gestureRecognizer.setTranslation(CGPoint.zero, in: self.scrollView)
}
}
/*
// Only override draw() if you perform custom drawing.
// An empty implementation adversely affects performance during animation.
override func draw(_ rect: CGRect) {
// Drawing code
}
*/
}
This class is working perfectly, I can scroll through all my views, but I can't zoom-in and zoom-out in order to see less/more views on my screen.
I think the solution is simple, but I can't seem to find a real solution for my problem ..
Thanks !

How to marquee UITextField placeholder if text longer then the UITextField width?

Is it possible to marquee UITextFiled placeholder, if placeholder text is longer then the size of UITextField width, There are lib for UILabel MarqueeLabel but I am not sure how to marquee placeholder, please provide some suggestion, Or you can explain what is a placeholder is actually, it doesn't look like UILabel
I am using bellow code for CustomTextField with validation error message

How to create a bottom aligned label in Swift?

There are several examples on how to create a Top Aligned label in Swift. Here is on that works for me:
#IBDesignable class TopAlignedLabel: UILabel {
override func drawTextInRect(rect: CGRect) {
if let stringText = text {
let stringTextAsNSString = stringText as NSString
var labelStringSize = stringTextAsNSString.boundingRectWithSize(CGSizeMake(CGRectGetWidth(self.frame), CGFloat.max),
options: NSStringDrawingOptions.UsesLineFragmentOrigin,
attributes: [NSFontAttributeName: font],
context: nil).size
super.drawTextInRect(CGRectMake(0, 0, CGRectGetWidth(self.frame), ceil(labelStringSize.height)))
} else {
super.drawTextInRect(rect)
}
}
override func prepareForInterfaceBuilder() {
super.prepareForInterfaceBuilder()
layer.borderWidth = 1
layer.borderColor = UIColor.blackColor().CGColor
}
}
I am trying to modify this to create a bottom aligned label, but struggling to find the right thing to change. Any help is appreciated!
Change this line:
super.drawTextInRect(CGRectMake(0, 0, CGRectGetWidth(self.frame), ceil(labelStringSize.height)))
Into this:
super.drawTextInRect(CGRectMake(0, rect.size.height - labelStringSize.height, CGRectGetWidth(self.frame), ceil(labelStringSize.height)))
Updating the solution for SWIFT 3.0, complete code becomes:
import UIKit
#IBDesignable class BottomAlignedLabel: UILabel {
override func drawText(in rect: CGRect) {
if let stringText = text {
let stringTextAsNSString = stringText as NSString
let labelStringSize = stringTextAsNSString.boundingRect(with: CGSize(width: self.frame.width,height: CGFloat.greatestFiniteMagnitude),
options: NSStringDrawingOptions.usesLineFragmentOrigin,
attributes: [NSFontAttributeName: font],
context: nil).size
super.drawText(in: CGRect(x:0,y: rect.size.height - labelStringSize.height, width: self.frame.width, height: ceil(labelStringSize.height)))
} else {
super.drawText(in: rect)
}
}
override func prepareForInterfaceBuilder() {
super.prepareForInterfaceBuilder()
layer.borderWidth = 1
layer.borderColor = UIColor.clear.cgColor
}
}
