Style all UITextFields at once rather than in each ViewController?

Question

I\'m trying to style all the textfields like so:

CGRect frameRect2 = _lastname_field.frame;
frameRect2.size.height = 30;

_lastname_field.font = [UIFont font         


        

Answer 1

You should be able to do this for all the properties except the layer stuff...

in your AppDelegate add a method something like...

- (void)changeAppearances
{
    [[UITextField appearance] setFont:[UIFont fontWithName:@"AppleGothic" size:15]];
    [[UITextField appearance] setBackgroundColor:[UIColor whiteColor]];
}

and so on.

This will set the appearance for all UITextField instances in your app. (as long as you don't then overwrite them in your code).
