For some reason, when I add a UITextfield as a subview of the contentview

  • 0

For some reason, when I add a UITextfield as a subview of the contentview of a tablecell, the clearbutton does not align with the text typed in the field, and appears a bit underneath it. Is there any way I can move the text of the clearbutton to stop this from happening? Thanks for any help,

    I haven’t seen this, and a screen shot would be helpful. But, the quick answer is that you can inspect the subviews array of the UITextField, find the subview that contains the clear button, and adjust its frame.origin.

    Edit: It seems I’ve been downvoted for this answer (written in 2010). This is of not an “officially” approved method because you’re manipulating private objects, but it’s not detectable by Apple. The main risk is that the view hierarchy might be changed at some point.
