SwiftUI’s TextField
view has no styling by default, which means it’s an empty space on the screen. If that fits the style you want, great – you’re done. But many of us will prefer to add a border around the text field to make it clearer.
If you want to get the “rounded rect” text field style that we’re used to with UITextField
, you should use the .textFieldStyle(.roundedBorder))
modifier, like this:
struct ContentView: View {
@State private var name: String = "Tim"
var body: some View {
VStack(alignment: .leading) {
TextField("Enter your name", text: $name)
.textFieldStyle(.roundedBorder)
Text("Hello, \(name)!")
}
}
}
Download this as an Xcode project
Important: If you’re using Xcode 12 you need to use RoundedBorderTextFieldStyle()
rather than .roundedBorder
.
