不，没有任何占位符可用的textview。你必须把标签上面，当用户进入textview，然后隐藏它或设置默认值时，用户输入删除所有值。

我不得不调度队列，让我的占位符文本重新出现，一旦编辑完成。

func textViewDidBeginEditing(_ textView: UITextView) {

    if textView.text == "Description" {
        textView.text = nil
    }
}

func textViewDidEndEditing(_ textView: UITextView) {

    if textView.text.isEmpty {
        DispatchQueue.main.async {
            textView.text = "Description"
        }
    }
}

func setPlaceholder(){ var placeholderLabel = UILabel() placeholderLabel.text = "Describe your need..." placeholderLabel.font = UIFont.init(name: "Lato-Regular", size: 15.0) ?? UIFont.boldSystemFont(ofSize: 14.0) placeholderLabel.sizeToFit() descriptionTextView.addSubview(placeholderLabel) placeholderLabel.frame.origin = CGPoint(x: 5, y: (descriptionTextView.font?.pointSize)! / 2) placeholderLabel.textColor = UIColor.lightGray placeholderLabel.isHidden = !descriptionTextView.text.isEmpty } //Delegate Method. func textViewDidChange(_ textView: UITextView) { placeholderLabel.isHidden = !textView.text.isEmpty }

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。

斯威夫特5:

import UIKit
import SnapKit
import RxSwift
import RxCocoa

class TextAreaView: UIView {
    let textArea = UITextView()
    let textAreaPlaceholder = UITextView()
    
    override init(frame: CGRect) {
        super.init(frame: frame)
        commonSetup()
    }
    
    required init?(coder aDecoder: NSCoder) {
        super.init(coder: aDecoder)
        commonSetup()
    }
    
    private func commonSetup() {
        
        addSubview(textAreaPlaceholder)
        addSubview(textArea)
        
        textArea.isScrollEnabled = false
        textArea.delegate = self

        textAreaPlaceholder.isScrollEnabled = false
        textAreaPlaceholder.textColor = UIColor.lightGray
        
        textArea.snp.makeConstraints { make in
            make.top.bottom.leading.trailing.equalToSuperview()
        }

        textAreaPlaceholder.snp.makeConstraints { make in
            make.top.bottom.leading.trailing.equalTo(textArea.snp.top)
        }

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

extension TextAreaView: UITextViewDelegate {
    func textViewDidChange(_ textView: UITextView) {
        updatePlaceholder()
    }
}

没有这样的属性在ios添加占位符直接在TextView，而你可以添加一个标签和显示/隐藏在TextView的变化。SWIFT 2.0，确保实现textviewdelegate

func textViewDidChange(TextView: UITextView)
{

 if  txtShortDescription.text == ""
    {
        self.lblShortDescription.hidden = false
    }
    else
    {
        self.lblShortDescription.hidden = true
    }

}

以下是我解决这个问题的方法(Swift 4):

这个想法是做出最简单的解决方案，允许使用不同颜色的占位符，调整占位符大小，不会覆盖委托，同时保持所有UITextView函数正常工作。

import UIKit

class PlaceholderTextView: UITextView {
    var placeholderColor: UIColor = .lightGray
    var defaultTextColor: UIColor = .black

    private var isShowingPlaceholder = false {
        didSet {
            if isShowingPlaceholder {
                text = placeholder
                textColor = placeholderColor
            } else {
                textColor = defaultTextColor
            }
        }
    }

    var placeholder: String? {
        didSet {
            isShowingPlaceholder = !hasText
        }
    }

    @objc private func textViewDidBeginEditing(notification: Notification) {
        textColor = defaultTextColor
        if isShowingPlaceholder { text = nil }
    }

    @objc private func textViewDidEndEditing(notification: Notification) {
        isShowingPlaceholder = !hasText
    }

    // MARK: - Construction -
    override init(frame: CGRect, textContainer: NSTextContainer?) {
        super.init(frame: frame, textContainer: textContainer)
        setup()
    }

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

    private func setup() {
        NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(self, selector: #selector(textViewDidBeginEditing(notification:)), name: UITextView.textDidBeginEditingNotification, object: nil)
        NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(self, selector: #selector(textViewDidEndEditing(notification:)), name: UITextView.textDidEndEditingNotification, object: nil)
    }

    // MARK: - Destruction -
    deinit { NotificationCenter.default.removeObserver(self) }
}
