UITextField Vertical Alignment

Question

Is there a way to vertically align text in a UITextField half-way between UIControlContentVerticalAlignmentCenter and UIControlContentVerticalAlignmentBottom or do I have to go with one of those?

Answer 1

You should subclass a UITextField, and override the following methods:

- (CGRect) textRectForBounds: (CGRect) bounds {   CGRect origValue = [super textRectForBounds: bounds];    /* Just a sample offset */   return CGRectOffset(origValue, 0.0f, 4.0f); }  - (CGRect) editingRectForBounds: (CGRect) bounds {   CGRect origValue = [super textRectForBounds: bounds];    /* Just a sample offset */         return CGRectOffset(origValue, 0.0f, 4.0f); }
