基于Evil Trout的回答，你可能想要创建一个类别，使它更容易在多个应用程序中使用。

头文件:

@interface UITextField (PaddingText)

-(void) setLeftPadding:(int) paddingValue;

-(void) setRightPadding:(int) paddingValue;
@end

实现文件:

#import "UITextField+PaddingText.h"

@implementation UITextField (PaddingText)

-(void) setLeftPadding:(int) paddingValue
{
    UIView *paddingView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, paddingValue, self.frame.size.height)];
    self.leftView = paddingView;
    self.leftViewMode = UITextFieldViewModeAlways;
}

-(void) setRightPadding:(int) paddingValue
{
    UIView *paddingView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, paddingValue, self.frame.size.height)];
    self.rightView = paddingView;
    self.rightViewMode = UITextFieldViewModeAlways;
}

@end

使用的例子

#import "UITextField+PaddingText.h"

[self.YourTextField setLeftPadding:20.0f];

希望这对你们有所帮助

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     
        }
    }
}  

@Evil trout的回答很棒。我使用这种方法已经有一段时间了。它唯一缺少的是“处理大量文本字段”。我尝试了其他方法，但似乎不奏效。

子类化UITextField只是为了添加填充对我来说没有任何意义。因此，我迭代了所有UITextFields来添加填充。

-(void) addPaddingToAllTextFields:(UIView*)view {

    for(id currentView in [view subviews]){
        if([currentView isKindOfClass:[UITextField class]]) {
            // Change value of CGRectMake to fit ur need
            [currentView setLeftView:[[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 10, 20)]];
            [currentView setLeftViewMode:UITextFieldViewModeAlways];
        }

        if([currentView respondsToSelector:@selector(subviews)]){
            [textfieldarray addObjectsFromArray:[self addPaddingToAllTextFields:currentView]];
        }
    }
}

textField.layer.borderWidth = 3;

将添加边框，这对我来说是填充。

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)
    }
}
