I think I have the correct solution but If it can be improved will be welcome :) Well, I made a subclass of UITextField and overriden the method that returns the CGRect for the bounds
-(CGRect)textRectForBounds:(CGRect)bounds {
return CGRectZero;
}
The problem? The text doesn't show because the rect is zero. But I added an UILabel as a subview of the control and overridden the setText method so, as we enter a text as usual, the text field text is nil and is the label which shows the text
- (void)setText:(NSString *)aText {
[super setText:nil];
if (aText == nil) {
textLabel_.text = nil;
}
if (![aText isEqualToString:@""]) {
textLabel_.text = aText;
}
}
With this the thing works as expected. Have you know any way to improve it?
