Increase spacing between icon and cursor in search bar Objective-C

Question

Increase spacing between icon and cursor in search bar

So I want to add a space between the searchIcon and the text that the user enters as it's too close to one another.

Answer 1

Take a look at the UISearchBar Class Reference by Apple and look for searchTextPositionAdjustment.

To create a gap of 10 pixels between the icon and the text you could do the following in your code: searchBar.searchTextPositionAdjustment = UIOffsetMake(10.0f, 0.0f);
