How to enter text in textfield from 5 pixels after in ios

Question

I have UITextField of which I've added an image.

Everything looks good, except that the text starts from zero X-coordinate, but I want it to start after 5 pixels in text field.

Answer 1

put a left view into your text filed as such :

    textField.layer.cornerRadius = 5.0;
    UIView *paddingView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 5, textField.frame.size.height)];
    textField.leftView = paddingView;
    [paddingView release];
    textField.leftViewMode = UITextFieldViewModeAlways;

Try to use this one

  UIImageView *imageView = [[UIImageView alloc] init];

    // add 5 (width) pixel for your space
    imageView.frame = CGRectMake(0,0 ,5, txtFld.frame.size.height);

    txtFld.leftViewMode = UITextFieldViewModeAlways;
    txtFld.leftView = imageView;
