I am using a text view as a comment composer.
In the properties inspector I can\'t find anything like a border style property so that I can make use a rounded rect,
Edit: You have to import
#import
for using corner radius.
Try this it will work for sure
UITextView* txtView = [[UITextView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(50, 50, 300, 100)];
txtView.layer.cornerRadius = 5.0;
txtView.clipsToBounds = YES;
As
Rob figured it out setting the if you want the border color to be similar as UITextField then you need to change the border width to 2.0 and color to gray by adding the following line
[textView.layer setBorderColor:[[[UIColor grayColor] colorWithAlphaComponent:0.5] CGColor]];
[textView.layer setBorderWidth:2.0];
