为UITextField添加填充的一个好方法是子类化UITextField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 = UIEdgeInsetsMake(0, 0, 0, 0);
    }
    return self;
}

-(id)initWithCoder:(NSCoder *)aDecoder{
    self = [super initWithCoder:aDecoder];
    if(self){
        self.edgeInsets = UIEdgeInsetsMake(0, 0, 0, 0);
    }
    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

如果你有一个明确的按钮，接受的答案将不适合你。我们还应该警惕苹果在未来通过调用super来改变事情。

因此，为了确保文本不会与清除按钮重叠，让我们先从super中获取“默认”值，然后根据需要进行调整。

这段代码将在文本框的顶部、左侧和底部添加一个10px的insets:

@interface InsetTextField : UITextField

@end


@implementation InsetTextField

// Placeholder position
- (CGRect)textRectForBounds:(CGRect)bounds {
    CGRect rect = [super textRectForBounds:bounds];
    UIEdgeInsets insets = UIEdgeInsetsMake(10, 10, 10, 0);

    return UIEdgeInsetsInsetRect(rect, insets);
}

// Text position
- (CGRect)editingRectForBounds:(CGRect)bounds {
    CGRect rect = [super editingRectForBounds:bounds];
    UIEdgeInsets insets = UIEdgeInsetsMake(10, 10, 10, 0);

    return UIEdgeInsetsInsetRect(rect, insets);
}

// Clear button position
- (CGRect)clearButtonRectForBounds:(CGRect)bounds {
    CGRect rect = [super clearButtonRectForBounds:bounds];

    return CGRectOffset(rect, -5, 0);
}

@end

注意:UIEdgeInsetsMake接受参数的顺序是:上，左，下，右。

Swift 4.2版本:

import UIKit

class InsetTextField: UITextField {

  let inset: CGFloat = 10

  override func textRect(forBounds bounds: CGRect) -> CGRect {
    return bounds.insetBy(dx: inset, dy: inset)
  }


  override func editingRect(forBounds bounds: CGRect) -> CGRect {
    return bounds.insetBy(dx: inset, dy: inset)
  }

  override func placeholderRect(forBounds bounds: CGRect) -> CGRect {
    return bounds.insetBy(dx: inset, dy: inset)
  }

}

重写-textRectForBounds:只会改变占位符文本的插入。要改变可编辑文本的插入，你还需要重写-editingRectForBounds:

// placeholder position
- (CGRect)textRectForBounds:(CGRect)bounds {
     return CGRectInset(bounds, 10, 10);
}

// text position
- (CGRect)editingRectForBounds:(CGRect)bounds {
     return CGRectInset(bounds, 10, 10);
}

我做到了:

myTextField.layer.sublayerTransform = CATransform3DMakeTranslation(5, 0, 0);

当然记得导入QuartzCore并将框架添加到您的项目中。

如果你只需要左边空白，你可以试试这个:

UItextField *textField = [[UITextField alloc] initWithFrame:...];
UIView *leftView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 10, textField.frame.size.height)];
leftView.backgroundColor = textField.backgroundColor;
textField.leftView = leftView;
textField.leftViewMode = UITextFieldViewModeAlways;

这对我很管用。我希望这能有所帮助。
