就像这样子类UITextField (Swift版本):

import UIKit

class CustomTextField: UITextField {

    override func textRectForBounds(bounds: CGRect) -> CGRect {
       return CGRectInset(bounds, 25.0, 0)
    }

    override func editingRectForBounds(bounds: CGRect) -> CGRect {
       return self.textRectForBounds(bounds)
    }

}

这增加了25.0点的水平填充两边。

你不能设置填充。而是有一个UIView，里面有你的背景图像和UITextField。设置UITextField的宽度为UIViewWidth-(paddingSize x 2)和高度相似，然后设置它在点paddingSize,paddingSize。

斯威夫特版本:

extension UITextField {
    @IBInspectable var padding_left: CGFloat {
        get {
            LF.log("WARNING no getter for UITextField.padding_left")
            return 0
        }
        set (f) {
            layer.sublayerTransform = CATransform3DMakeTranslation(f, 0, 0)
        }
    }
}

这样你就可以在IB中赋值

你可以使用分类。设置左填充和右填充

CGFloat offset_Left=0;
CGFloat offset_Right=0;

                      bounds.size.width- (offset_Left+offset_Right), bounds.size.height-2 );

    return bounds;

-(CGRect)editingRectForBounds:(CGRect)bounds {
    return [self textRectForBounds:bounds];
}

    objc_setAssociatedObject(self, &TAG_Left_RightPaddingKey, @(paddingValue), OBJC_ASSOCIATION_RETAIN_NONATOMIC);
}

-(CGFloat)leftPadding
{
    return [objc_getAssociatedObject(self,&TAG_LeftPaddingKey) floatValue];
}

-(void)setLeftPadding:(CGFloat)leftPadding

    objc_setAssociatedObject(self, &TAG_LeftPaddingKey, @(leftPadding), OBJC_ASSOCIATION_RETAIN_NONATOMIC);

-(CGFloat)rightPadding

-(void)setRightPadding:(CGFloat)rightPadding

}

@end

你可以像这样设置填充 self.phoneNumTF.paddingValue f = 10.; 或 self.phoneNumTF.leftPadding f = 10.;

为UITextField添加填充的一个好方法是子类化并添加一个edgeInsets属性。然后设置edgeInsets和UITextField将相应地绘制。对于自定义的leftView或rightView集，这也能正确地发挥作用。

OSTextField.h

#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>

@interface OSTextField : UITextField

@property (nonatomic, assign) UIEdgeInsets edgeInsets;

@end

OSTextField.m

#import "OSTextField.h"

@implementation OSTextField

- (id)initWithFrame:(CGRect)frame{
    self = [super initWithFrame:frame];
    if (self) {
        self.edgeInsets = UIEdgeInsetsZero;
    }
    return self;
}

-(id)initWithCoder:(NSCoder *)aDecoder{
    self = [super initWithCoder:aDecoder];
    if(self){
        self.edgeInsets = UIEdgeInsetsZero;
    }
    return self;
}

- (CGRect)textRectForBounds:(CGRect)bounds {
    return [super textRectForBounds:UIEdgeInsetsInsetRect(bounds, self.edgeInsets)];
}

- (CGRect)editingRectForBounds:(CGRect)bounds {
    return [super editingRectForBounds:UIEdgeInsetsInsetRect(bounds, self.edgeInsets)];
}

@end

我发现了一个整洁的小hack来设置左侧填充的确切情况。

基本上，你设置UITextField的leftView属性为你想要的填充大小的空视图:

UIView *paddingView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 5, 20)];
textField.leftView = paddingView;
textField.leftViewMode = UITextFieldViewModeAlways;

对我来说简直就是魔法!

在Swift 3/ Swift 4中，可以通过这样做来实现

let paddingView: UIView = UIView(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 5, height: 20))
textField.leftView = paddingView
textField.leftViewMode = .always
