对于Swift 3和3.1，这工作得非常好:

passField.attributedPlaceholder = NSAttributedString(string: "password", attributes: [NSForegroundColorAttributeName: UIColor.white])

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])

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;

}

用于更改占位符文本颜色的Objective C代码。

首先导入这个objc/runtime类-

#进口< objc / >

然后替换文本字段名称- Ivar Ivar = class_getinstancvariable ([UITextField类]，"_placeholderLabel"); UILabel *placeholderLabel = object_getIvar(YourTxtField, ivar); placeholderLabel。textColor = [UIColor whiteColor];

Swift 3(可能是2)，你可以覆盖didSet占位符在UITextField子类上应用属性，这样:

override var placeholder: String? {

    didSet {
        guard let tmpText = placeholder else {
            self.attributedPlaceholder = NSAttributedString(string: "")
            return
        }

        let textRange = NSMakeRange(0, tmpText.characters.count)
        let attributedText = NSMutableAttributedString(string: tmpText)
        attributedText.addAttribute(NSForegroundColorAttributeName , value:UIColor(white:147.0/255.0, alpha:1.0), range: textRange)

        self.attributedPlaceholder = attributedText
    }
}

它更多的是个性化你的textField，但无论如何，我将分享这段代码从另一个页面，使它更好一点:

import UIKit
extension UITextField {
func setBottomLine(borderColor: UIColor, fontColor: UIColor, placeHolderColor:UIColor, placeHolder: String) {
    self.borderStyle = UITextBorderStyle.none
    self.backgroundColor = UIColor.clear
    let borderLine = UIView()
    let height = 1.0
    borderLine.frame = CGRect(x: 0, y: Double(self.frame.height) - height, width: Double(self.frame.width), height: height)
    self.textColor = fontColor
    borderLine.backgroundColor = borderColor
    self.addSubview(borderLine)
    self.attributedPlaceholder = NSAttributedString(
        string: placeHolder,
        attributes: [NSAttributedStringKey.foregroundColor: placeHolderColor]
    )
  }
}

你可以这样使用它:

self.textField.setBottomLine(borderColor: lineColor, fontColor: fontColor, placeHolderColor: placeHolderColor, placeHolder: placeHolder)

知道你有一个UITextField连接到一个ViewController。
