Clear button NOT showing on UITextField

Question

I'm facing a problem while trying to enable the clear button on UITextField. I have added like this:

if let clearButton = searchTextField.value(forKeyPath: "_clearButton") as? UIButton { //KV clearButton.tintColor = .nextWhite() clearButton.backgroundColor = .nextWhite() clearButton.setImage(UIImage(named: R.image.iconCloseRounded.name), for: .normal) clearButton.isHidden = false

The debug 3d image is attached on the link below.

Please, could anyone see where I'm adding this wrong that it's not being shown?

I have faced same issue as I have set padding for my textfields. Resolved the issue by referring stackoverflow.com/a/10274246/10005005 — Zeona

I have copied your code, it is working fine.

But you have to make sure that in the dropdown menu for "Clear Button" there is something other checked than "never appears".

Picture of that dropdown menu

Or if you want to activate it from code use:

searchTextField.clearButtonMode = UITextFieldViewMode.whileEditing
