Question

{

    [self.placeHolderTextColor setFill];
    [self.pl         


        

Answer 1

drawInRect methods seem to behave differently in iOS7, you can try adding the following line and use that as the rect to draw instead. It's also backwards compatible with pre-iOS7.

  CGRect placeholderRect = CGRectMake(rect.origin.x, (rect.size.height- self.font.pointSize)/2, rect.size.width, self.font.pointSize);
