UITextField Border Colour with IBDISPOSABLE

Question

I'm trying to create a custom view UITextField that will render in Interface Builder.

I want to be able to adjust the border colour and width.

I understand that I need to implement IBINSPECTABLE and IBDESIGNABLE in order to make these changes and see them in my Storyboard.

My header file is as follows:

#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>

IB_DESIGNABLE
@interface BorderTextField : UITextField

@property (nonatomic) IBINSPECTABLE UIColor borderColor;

@end

which isn't working for the border colour. I know I'm doing something wrong I'm just not sure what.

Answer 1

why don't you try the Layer Property of UITextField

Try like below.

UITextField *txtField = // Initialize your txtField
txtField.layer.borderColor = [UIColor redColor].cgcolor;
txtField.layer.borderWidth = 2.0

Hope this solve your problem
