Swift 4

txtField1.attributedPlaceholder = NSAttributedString(string: "-", attributes: [NSAttributedStringKey.foregroundColor: UIColor.white])

对于iOS13

+(void)ChangeplaceholderColor :(UITextField *)TxtFld andColor:(UIColor*)color { 
    NSMutableAttributedString *placeholderAttributedString = [[NSMutableAttributedString alloc] initWithAttributedString:TxtFld.attributedPlaceholder];
       [placeholderAttributedString addAttribute:NSForegroundColorAttributeName value:color range:NSMakeRange(0, [placeholderAttributedString length])];
       TxtFld.attributedPlaceholder = placeholderAttributedString;

}

在我的例子中，我必须将占位符设置为黑色。UITextField的名字是passwordText。下面的代码是在Swift 5中测试的，对我来说工作得很好。我也有一个现有的文本对应的占位符。

let placeholderColor = UIColor.black
passwordText.attributedPlaceholder = NSAttributedString(string: passwordText.placeholder!, attributes: [NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor : placeholderColor])

在我的例子中，我使用Swift 4

我为UITextField创建扩展

extension UITextField {
    func placeholderColor(color: UIColor) {
        let attributeString = [
            NSAttributedStringKey.foregroundColor: color.withAlphaComponent(0.6),
            NSAttributedStringKey.font: self.font!
            ] as [NSAttributedStringKey : Any]
        self.attributedPlaceholder = NSAttributedString(string: self.placeholder!, attributes: attributeString)
    }
}

yourField。placeholderColor(颜色:UIColor.white)

在Swift中这样使用，

 let placeHolderText = textField.placeholder ?? ""
 let str = NSAttributedString(string:placeHolderText!, attributes: [NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor :UIColor.lightGray])
 textField.attributedPlaceholder = str

在Objective C中

NSString *placeHolder = [textField.placeholder length]>0 ? textField.placeholder: @"";
NSAttributedString *str = [[NSAttributedString alloc] initWithString:placeHolder attributes:@{ NSForegroundColorAttributeName : [UIColor lightGrayColor] }];
textField.attributedPlaceholder = str;

在Swift 3.0中，使用

let color = UIColor.lightText
textField.attributedPlaceholder = NSAttributedString(string: textField.placeholder, attributes: [NSForegroundColorAttributeName : color])

在Siwft 5.0 +使用

let color = UIColor.lightText
let placeholder = textField.placeholder ?? "" //There should be a placeholder set in storyboard or elsewhere string or pass empty
textField.attributedPlaceholder = NSAttributedString(string: placeholder, attributes: [NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor : color])
