Swift 3的更新版本:

@IBDesignable
class FormTextField: UITextField {

    @IBInspectable var paddingLeft: CGFloat = 0
    @IBInspectable var paddingRight: CGFloat = 0

    override func textRect(forBounds bounds: CGRect) -> CGRect {
        return CGRect(x: bounds.origin.x + paddingLeft, y: bounds.origin.y, width: bounds.size.width - paddingLeft - paddingRight, height: bounds.size.height)
    }

    override func editingRect(forBounds bounds: CGRect) -> CGRect {
        return textRect(forBounds: bounds)
    }
}

下面是一个Swift代码，在UITextfield中提供填充

 func txtPaddingVw(txt:UITextField) {
     let paddingView = UIView(frame: CGRectMake(0, 0, 10, 10))
     txt.leftViewMode = .Always
     txt.leftView = paddingView
 }

调用using

self.txtPaddingVw(txtPin)

Swift 3版本:

class CustomTextField:UITextField{

    required init?(coder aDecoder: NSCoder){
        super.init(coder: aDecoder)
    }

    override init(frame: CGRect) {
        super.init(frame: frame)
    }

    override func textRect(forBounds bounds: CGRect) -> CGRect {
        return CGRect.init(x: bounds.origin.x + 8, y: bounds.origin.y, width: bounds.width, height: bounds.height)
    }

    override func editingRect(forBounds bounds: CGRect) -> CGRect {
        return self.textRect(forBounds:bounds)
    }
}

Swift 3解决方案

class CustomTextField: UITextField {

 override func textRect(forBounds bounds: CGRect) -> CGRect {
  return CGRect(x: bounds.origin.x + 10, y: bounds.origin.y + 8, width: bounds.size.width - 20, height: bounds.size.height - 16)
 }

 override func editingRect(forBounds bounds: CGRect) -> CGRect {
  return self.textRect(forBounds: bounds)
 }
}

如果有人正在寻找Swift 4.0版本，那么下面的扩展是工作。它有左填充和右填充UITextField。实际上它是IBInspectable用于storyboard配置。您可以直接从接口构建器/故事板设置该值。这是在Swift 4.0版本和Xcode 9.0的测试代码

请记住，如果你想在同一个UITextField上启用清除按钮，那么你必须保持右填充空白。

import UIKit

extension UITextField {

    @IBInspectable var paddingLeft: CGFloat {
        get {
            return leftView!.frame.size.width
        }
        set {
            let paddingView = UIView(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: newValue, height: frame.size.height))
            leftView = paddingView
            leftViewMode = .always
        }
    }

    @IBInspectable var paddingRight: CGFloat {
        get {
            return rightView!.frame.size.width
        }
        set {
            let paddingView = UIView(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: newValue, height: frame.size.height))
            rightView = paddingView
            rightViewMode = .always     
        }
    }
}  

最好的方法是使用UITextField的子类并在.m文件中创建一个类

 #import "CustomTextField.h"
 #import <QuartzCore/QuartzCore.h>
 @implementation CustomTextField


- (id)initWithCoder:(NSCoder*)coder 
 {
  self = [super initWithCoder:coder];

  if (self) {

//self.clipsToBounds = YES;
//[self setRightViewMode:UITextFieldViewModeUnlessEditing];

self.leftView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0,15,46)];
self.leftViewMode=UITextFieldViewModeAlways;
   }

  return self;

 }

通过这样做，去到你的故事板或xib，点击身份检查器，用你自己的“CustomTextField”在类选项替换UITextfield。

注意:如果你只是给文本框自动布局填充，那么你的应用程序将不会运行，只显示空白屏幕。
