I have same issue as #67. Is there any workaround for this?

If the text is bigger then the visible space the cursor fails to scroll to the right with the text, as the standard behavior does for a UITextField. Seems like setting the textRectForBounds, stops the UITextField from tracking the cursor.

I have same issue. Is there any workaround for this? I am using constraint.

let contentView = UIView()
        contentView.setTranslatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints(false)
let emailInput = JVFloatLabeledTextField()
        emailInput.floatingLabel.font = PlaceHolderFontSmall
        emailInput.floatingLabelTextColor = PlaceholderSmallColor
        emailInput.setTranslatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints(false)

let views = ["contentView": contentView, "emailInput": emailInput]
        let constrainV = NSLayoutConstraint.constraintsWithVisualFormat("V:|-(16)-[emailInput(36)]-(16)-|",
            options: NSLayoutFormatOptions.AlignAllCenterX, metrics: nil, views: views)
        contentView.addConstraints(constrainV)

        let constrainH = NSLayoutConstraint.constraintsWithVisualFormat("H:|-10-[emailInput(260)]-10-|",
            options: nil, metrics: nil, views: views)
        contentView.addConstraints(constrainH)

I would appreciate it if you added a UITextView equivalent for this control. I have tried using RPFloatingPlaceholderTextView but it has several displaying issues. I believe this should be simple for you to port over to a UITextView. Thanks!

Can I show a bottom border when text field get focus?

Please see the screenshot attached.

Oh and yes, thanks for the awesome library! 👍

When I set the text of my label within the viewDidAppear it works fine:

But when I set it within the viewDidLoad the alignment is left from the center as you can see in the image:

It seems that release 1.0.0 messed the vertical positions of the inner textField. Version 0.0.9 was fine.

This is on an iPhone 6 running iOS 8.1.2, building from Xcode 6.2 beta 3 with iOS 7.0 deployment target.

See the following screenshots (first two screenshots are 1.0.0, last two 0.0.9):

Hi jverdi, your repo is great and I have used it one of my app. Thank you for putting out such a great resources! I have a problem here: So everything works fine when I am using frame to define the TextField or TextView. But when I am using Auto Layout. There's Y offset on the Placeholder UILabel. Here's a screen shot: http://cl.ly/image/4630050C1y3b You can see that the one on the top is a TextField, which works fine but the one on the bottom is the TextView, where the placeholder "Detail" has a offset. You didn't make the placeholder UILabel public so I can't modify that. Is there any way to solve this problem?

Thank you in advance

If you use an NSAttributedString for a placeholder and then enter text, the newly entered text is using the same color as the placeholder instead of using the text color assigned to the view.

If the text is bigger then the visible space the cursor fails to scroll to the right with the text, as the standard behavior does for a UITextField. Seems like setting the textRectForBounds, stops the UITextField from tracking the cursor.

As I typed it out..

If press down and scroll to the right of the same text.

If I use UITextField.leftView to show an indicator or something the floating label's X coordinate is wrong since its not accounted for when its being calculated.

When I try to add this to my project via SPM I get this error:

https://github.com/jverdi/JVFloatLabeledTextField has no Package.swift manifest for version 1.2.2

I see that the SPM manifest is added on master but the commit has not been tagged. Maybe you could tag a 1.2.3 version which includes SPM manifest?

Fixes an issue where setting placeholderColor in Interface Builder would not have any effect since the placeholderColor was set after the placeholderText.

Receiving error in 1.2.5 via SPM

CocoaPods.org list the latest version as 1.2.2, while GitHub shows version 1.2.5.

The current version of the textField doesn't support Dynamic Type. To do this it would need to ensure that a scaled variant of a UIFont is used for the floating label (or opt-in somehow), can use numberOfLines == 0, word wraps and also sets adjustsFontForContentSizeCategory = YES.

Typically a single line for the floating label is fine but when using Dynamic Type and especially in the larger Accessibility content sizes, a single line will truncate too much of the label - which should be fully visible to users at all times. So it ideally should be possible for it to span multiple lines. This causes layouts and constraints in the example project to break, the floating label overlaps with the textfield content and doesn't resize properly.
I believe that the layouts shouldn't assume that the height of the floating label is equal to the _floatingLabel.font.lineHeight however just replacing that everywhere with _floatingLabel.frame.size.height doesn't correctly adjust the textfield content for the floating label. The example project also assumes that the textfield height is 44. I also tried to change this but was unsuccessful.

Unfortunately, I've managed to get it working on an older version of the library but it's diverged too much from the current version to be able to create a PR.

I used JVFloatLabeledTextField in some secure field and want to disable copy, paste from storyboard. so no one can copy secure data. Is this functionality available in JVFloatLabeledTextField.

I'm trying to implement text field "error" state by setting color to floatingLabelActiveTextColor and floatingLabelTextColor properties. Color of floating label sometimes not changing until field becomes first responder.

Integrating project using Carthage to Swift project you importing

import JVFloatLabeledText

Using CocoaPods

import JVFloatLabeledTextField

Am I doing something wrong?

The problem I am creating reusable component base on JVFloatLabeledTextField for project using both CocoaPods and Carthage for dependency management.
