crubio对Swift 4的答案更新

选择UITextField并打开右边的标识检查器:

单击加号按钮并添加一个新的运行时属性:placeholderLabel。textColor(代替_placeholderLabel.textColor)

使用颜色作为类型并选择颜色。

如果您运行您的项目，您将看到这些更改。

添加带属性的占位符:

let attributes : [String : Any]  = [ NSForegroundColorAttributeName: UIColor.lightGray,
                                     NSFontAttributeName : UIFont(name: "Helvetica Neue Light Italic", size: 12.0)!
                                   ]
x_textfield.attributedPlaceholder = NSAttributedString(string: "Placeholder Text", attributes:attributes)

像这样创建UITextField扩展:

extension UITextField{
   @IBInspectable var placeHolderColor: UIColor? {
        get {
            return self.placeHolderColor
        }
        set {
            self.attributedPlaceholder = NSAttributedString(string:self.placeholder != nil ? self.placeholder! : "", attributes:[NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor: newValue!])
        }
    }
}

在你的故事板或。xib中。你会看到

为迅速

func setPlaceholderColor(textField: UITextField, placeholderText: String) {
    textField.attributedPlaceholder = NSAttributedString(string: placeholderText, attributes: [NSForegroundColorAttributeName: UIColor.pelorBlack])
}

你可以用这个;

self.setPlaceholderColor(textField: self.emailTextField, placeholderText: "E-Mail/Username")

对于swift 4.2及以上版本，你可以这样做:

textField.attributedPlaceholder = NSAttributedString(string: "Placeholder Text", attributes: [NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor: UIColor.white])

就我而言，我做了以下事情:

extension UITextField {
    @IBInspectable var placeHolderColor: UIColor? {
        get {
            if let color = self.attributedPlaceholder?.attribute(.foregroundColor, at: 0, effectiveRange: nil) as? UIColor {
                return color
            }
            return nil
        }
        set (setOptionalColor) {
            if let setColor = setOptionalColor {
                let string = self.placeholder ?? ""
                self.attributedPlaceholder = NSAttributedString(string: string , attributes:[NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor: setColor])
            }
        }
    }
}
