如何在UITextView中添加占位符,类似于你可以为UITextField设置的占位符,在Swift中?


当前回答

我喜欢@nerdist的解决方案。在此基础上,我创建了UITextView的扩展:

import Foundation
import UIKit

extension UITextView
{
  private func add(_ placeholder: UILabel) {
    for view in self.subviews {
        if let lbl = view as? UILabel  {
            if lbl.text == placeholder.text {
                lbl.removeFromSuperview()
            }
        }
    }
    self.addSubview(placeholder)
  }

  func addPlaceholder(_ placeholder: UILabel?) {
    if let ph = placeholder {
      ph.numberOfLines = 0  // support for multiple lines
      ph.font = UIFont.italicSystemFont(ofSize: (self.font?.pointSize)!)
      ph.sizeToFit()
      self.add(ph)
      ph.frame.origin = CGPoint(x: 5, y: (self.font?.pointSize)! / 2)
      ph.textColor = UIColor(white: 0, alpha: 0.3)
      updateVisibility(ph)
    }
  }

  func updateVisibility(_ placeHolder: UILabel?) {
    if let ph = placeHolder {
      ph.isHidden = !self.text.isEmpty
    }
  }
}

例如,在ViewController类中,我是这样使用它的:

class MyViewController: UIViewController, UITextViewDelegate {
  private var notePlaceholder: UILabel!
  @IBOutlet weak var txtNote: UITextView!
  ...
  // UIViewController
  override func viewDidLoad() {
    notePlaceholder = UILabel()
    notePlaceholder.text = "title\nsubtitle\nmore..."
    txtNote.addPlaceholder(notePlaceholder)
    ...
  }

  // UITextViewDelegate
  func textViewDidChange(_ textView: UITextView) {
    txtNote.updateVisbility(notePlaceholder)
    ...
  }

UITextview的占位符!

更新:

如果你在代码中改变textview的文本,记得调用updateVisibitly方法来隐藏占位符:

txtNote.text = "something in code"
txtNote.updateVisibility(self.notePlaceholder) // hide placeholder if text is not empty.

为了防止占位符被添加多次,在扩展中添加了一个私有add()函数。

其他回答

这是我准备使用的解决方案,如果您正在处理多个文本视图

func textViewShouldBeginEditing(textView: UITextView) -> Bool {        
    // Set cursor to the beginning if placeholder is set
    if textView.textColor == UIColor.lightGrayColor() {
        textView.selectedTextRange = textView.textRangeFromPosition(textView.beginningOfDocument, toPosition: textView.beginningOfDocument)
    }

    return true
}

func textView(textView: UITextView, shouldChangeTextInRange range: NSRange, replacementText text: String) -> Bool {
    // Remove placeholder
    if textView.textColor == UIColor.lightGrayColor() && text.characters.count > 0 {
        textView.text = ""
        textView.textColor = UIColor.blackColor()
    }

    if text == "\n" {
        textView.resignFirstResponder()
        return false
    }

    return true
}

func textViewDidChange(textView: UITextView) {
    // Set placeholder if text is empty
    if textView.text.isEmpty {
        textView.text = NSLocalizedString("Hint", comment: "hint")
        textView.textColor = UIColor.lightGrayColor()
        textView.selectedTextRange = textView.textRangeFromPosition(textView.beginningOfDocument, toPosition: textView.beginningOfDocument)
    }
}

func textViewDidChangeSelection(textView: UITextView) {
    // Set cursor to the beginning if placeholder is set
    let firstPosition = textView.textRangeFromPosition(textView.beginningOfDocument, toPosition: textView.beginningOfDocument)

    // Do not change position recursively
    if textView.textColor == UIColor.lightGrayColor() && textView.selectedTextRange != firstPosition {
        textView.selectedTextRange = firstPosition
    }
}

文本视图委托方法

使用这两个委托方法,并在类中编写UITextViewDelegate

func textViewDidBeginEditing(_ textView: UITextView) {
    if (commentsTextView.text == "Type Your Comments")
    {
        commentsTextView.text = nil
        commentsTextView.textColor = UIColor.darkGray
    }
}

func textViewDidEndEditing(_ textView: UITextView) {
    if commentsTextView.text.isEmpty
    {
        commentsTextView.text = "Type Your Comments"
        commentsTextView.textColor = UIColor.darkGray
    }
    textView.resignFirstResponder()
}

我相信这是一个非常干净的解决方案。它在实际文本视图下面添加了一个虚拟文本视图,并根据实际文本视图中的文本显示或隐藏它:

import Foundation
import UIKit

class TextViewWithPlaceholder: UITextView {

    private var placeholderTextView: UITextView = UITextView()

    var placeholder: String? {
        didSet {
            placeholderTextView.text = placeholder
        }
    }

    override var text: String! {
        didSet {
            placeholderTextView.isHidden = text.isEmpty == false
        }
    }

    override init(frame: CGRect, textContainer: NSTextContainer?) {
        super.init(frame: frame, textContainer: textContainer)
        commonInit()
    }

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

    private func commonInit() {
        applyCommonTextViewAttributes(to: self)
        configureMainTextView()
        addPlaceholderTextView()
        NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(self,
                                               selector: #selector(textDidChange),
                                               name: UITextView.textDidChangeNotification,
                                               object: nil)
    }

    func addPlaceholderTextView() {
        applyCommonTextViewAttributes(to: placeholderTextView)
        configurePlaceholderTextView()
        insertSubview(placeholderTextView, at: 0)
    }

    private func applyCommonTextViewAttributes(to textView: UITextView) {
        textView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
        textView.textContainer.lineFragmentPadding = 0
        textView.textContainerInset = UIEdgeInsets(top: 10,
                                                   left: 10,
                                                   bottom: 10,
                                                   right: 10)
    }

    private func configureMainTextView() {
        // Do any configuration of the actual text view here
    }

    private func configurePlaceholderTextView() {
        placeholderTextView.text = placeholder
        placeholderTextView.font = font
        placeholderTextView.textColor = UIColor.lightGray
        placeholderTextView.frame = bounds
        placeholderTextView.autoresizingMask = [.flexibleWidth, .flexibleHeight]
    }

    override func layoutSubviews() {
        super.layoutSubviews()
        placeholderTextView.frame = bounds
    }

    @objc func textDidChange() {
        placeholderTextView.isHidden = !text.isEmpty
    }

}

这就是我所做的。倾向于代码清晰和简单。我需要添加一个textView,将获得一些额外的笔记在我的应用程序。这额外的笔记可以创建或保存后修改。见下文。HTH。:)

class NotesTextView: UITextView {

    var placeholder = "" {
        didSet {
            showPlaceholder()
        }
    }
    
    // if the text is the placeholder, then assign a color fitting for a
    // placeholder text, else, assign it your color of choice.
    override var text: String! {
        didSet {
            textColor = text == placeholder ? .tertiaryLabel : .systemBlue
        }
    }
    
    
    override init(frame: CGRect, textContainer: NSTextContainer?) {
        super.init(frame: frame, textContainer: textContainer)
        
        delegate = self
        //config your font and translateAutoResizingMaskIntoConstraints here
    }
    
    required init?(coder: NSCoder) {
        fatalError("init(coder:) has not been implemented")
    }
    
    private func showPlaceholder() {
        text = placeholder
    }
    
    private func hidePlaceholder() {
        text = ""
    }
}

extension NotesTextView: UITextViewDelegate {
    func textViewDidBeginEditing(_ textView: UITextView) {
        if text == placeholder {
            hidePlaceholder()
        }
    }
    
    func textViewDidEndEditing(_ textView: UITextView) {
        if text.isEmpty {
            showPlaceholder()
        }
    }
}

可能是UITextView占位符实现的最简单的开箱即用的解决方案,不会遭受:

使用UILabel而不是UITextView,这可能会有不同的表现 切换到和从占位符“UITextView”拷贝,将捕获第一个键入的字符将从主UITextView控件丢失 打乱主UITextView控件的文本内容,将占位符替换为空字符串或第一个键入的字符。边界情况是,如果用户输入占位符文本,一些建议的实现将把它作为一个占位符本身。

        textAreaPlaceholder.text = "Placeholder"
        
        updatePlaceholder()

    func updatePlaceholder() {
        if textArea.text.count > 0 {
            textArea.alpha = 1.0
        } else {
            textArea.alpha = 0.0
        }
    }
}
