你可以重写drawPlaceholderInRect:(CGRect)rect来手动渲染占位符文本:

- (void) drawPlaceholderInRect:(CGRect)rect {
    [[UIColor blueColor] setFill];
    [[self placeholder] drawInRect:rect withFont:[UIFont systemFontOfSize:16]];
}

iOS 6及后续版本在UITextField上提供attributedPlaceholder。 iOS 3.2及更高版本提供了setAttributes:range: on NSMutableAttributedString。

您可以执行以下操作:

NSMutableAttributedString *ms = [[NSMutableAttributedString alloc] initWithString:self.yourInput.placeholder];
UIFont *placeholderFont = self.yourInput.font;
NSRange fullRange = NSMakeRange(0, ms.length);
NSDictionary *newProps = @{NSForegroundColorAttributeName:[UIColor yourColor], NSFontAttributeName:placeholderFont};
[ms setAttributes:newProps range:fullRange];
self.yourInput.attributedPlaceholder = ms;

小心谨慎。

let attributes = [ NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor: UIColor.someColor ]
let placeHolderString = NSAttributedString(string: "DON'T_DELETE", attributes: attributes)
txtField.attributedPlaceholder = placeHolderString

需要注意的是，你必须在“DON'T_DELETE”所在的地方输入一个非空字符串，即使该字符串在其他地方的代码中设置了。也许能帮你省下五分钟的脑筋。

如果子类化你必须做layoutSubviews(不是在init) 奇怪的是，你不需要清除正常的占位符。如果你使用带属性的占位符，它知道不绘制占位符。

我需要保持占位符的对齐，这样亚当的答案对我来说就不够了。

为了解决这个问题，我使用了一个小的变化，我希望也能帮助到你们:

- (void) drawPlaceholderInRect:(CGRect)rect {
    //search field placeholder color
    UIColor* color = [UIColor whiteColor];

    [color setFill];
    [self.placeholder drawInRect:rect withFont:self.font lineBreakMode:UILineBreakModeTailTruncation alignment:self.textAlignment];
}

有了这个，我们可以在iOS中改变文本字段占位符文本的颜色

[self.userNameTxt setValue:[UIColor colorWithRed:41.0/255.0 green:91.0/255.0 blue:106.0/255.0 alpha:1.0] forKeyPath:@"_placeholderLabel.textColor"];

在iOS7中处理垂直和水平对齐以及占位符的颜色。drawwinrect和drawAtPoint不再使用当前上下文的fillColor。
