If the priority of the width constraint isn't reduced it is automatically broken. Running this without the priority lowered generates a string of warnings in the console log, meaning that this is being over constrained.

Labels requires only one horizontal and one vertical constraint. Try replace textview's bottom constraint with height constraint, and IB will generate warning. Removing tail and bottom constraints will fix that.

Hi The KMPlaceholderTextView won't give access to the UILabel used, so it's really difficult to setup the backgroundColor. Why do we care about it if it's transparent?. One of the slowest operations is rendering. In my case I'm using a lot of instances of KMPlaceholderTextView so if you use “Color Blended Layers" in the iPhone Simulator, you will see a lot of red areas.

It would be really useful to have access to the background color of the UILabel - through a method- or the UILabel. Right now it's marked as private.

Other than color, it's very common to have a bolded or italic font for the placeholder, which is different from the regular text the user input. Can you add an option to set the placeholder font? thanks!

Hello!

I'm getting this issue with the latest version...

file:///Users/sulkuatam/src/app/app-ios/Base.lproj/Main.storyboard: error: IB Designables: Failed to update auto layout status: The bundle “$(PRODUCT_NAME)” couldn’t be loaded because its executable couldn’t be located.

Not sure what the issue is... thanks in advance for any help!

error: IB Designables: Failed to render instance of KMPlaceholderTextView: Rendering the view took longer than 200 ms. Your drawing code may suffer from slow performance.

how can i figure that error?

I use the text view in storyboard named "Mine".And I have the other storyboard. It is normal if I didn't click the Mine storyboard. It will show a Error when I clicked Mine storyboard. It is bad. Error info: Failed to render and update auto layout status for SuggestionViewController (EBX-d9-iDK): dlopen(KMPlaceholderTextView.framework, 1): no suitable image found. Did find: KMPlaceholderTextView.framework: required code signature missing for 'KMPlaceholderTextView.framework'

Hi,

I have add UITextView and set to KMPlaceholderTextView and set the placeholder property but whenever I run the app placeholder value can't see and getting the below warning.

Can you please help me asap?

Unknown class KMPlaceholderTextView in Interface Builder file. Failed to set (placeholder) user defined inspected property on (UITextView): [<UITextView 0x799c5000> setValue:forUndefinedKey:]: this class is not key value coding-compliant for the key placeholder. ] Failed to set (placeholder) user defined inspected property on (UITextView): [<UITextView 0x79a17800> setValue:forUndefinedKey:]: this class is not key value coding-compliant for the key placeholder.

Thank you for useful pod!

We have an issue using it in a storyboard. When adding a height constraint to the it Storyboard shows the warning: Has ambiguous scrollable content height.

Is there a workaround for that? Or way to fix it?

After investigation and StackOverflow research we think it's because IBDesignable KMPlaceholderTextView has placeholder subview, which UITextView UIScrollView probably takes as content and cause ambiguity.

We use your library as pod, but pulling from master branch, since pod spec was last updated 2 years ago. Recently we started getting this error. It seems that it is a result of moving source files to Sources folder. Podspec file was not change to accommodate this change.

I tried to deintegrate Pod and install it again also clean derived data and clean project but no way get the same error in Xcode 10.3

clang: error: no such file or directory: 'KMPlaceholderTextView' Command Ld failed with a nonzero exit code

I noticed that the constraints were only updated after updating the textContainer, not after updating textContainer.lineFragmentPadding and decided to make a fix for it.

Hi, I like KMPlaceholderTextView so much that (besides using it in my own projects) I have created a video tutorial on how to use it:
