Thanks for the hint. In the debugger I discovered that what looks to be a UITextField displayed across the bottom of the alert is actually implemented as a private object of class UIAlertControllerTextField.
So I can restrict the text to a portion of the textfield, but I can't find a way to shorten the textfield's displayed width. Setting UIBorderStyleNone also has no effect. I can change the font characteristics, but no layout/display characteristics of the "textfield" itself appear to be directly changeable. -Carl > On Mar 20, 2017, at 10:05 PM, Saagar Jha <saa...@saagarjha.com> wrote: > > I haven’t tested this, but have you tried calling [self layoutIfNeeded] in > the completion block of [self presentViewController:animated:completion]? > > Saagar Jha > >> On Mar 20, 2017, at 16:09, Carl Hoefs <newsli...@autonomy.caltech.edu >> <mailto:newsli...@autonomy.caltech.edu>> wrote: >> >> iOS 10.2.1 >> >> I'm using UIAlertController -addTextFieldWithConfigurationHandler: to >> display an alert with a textfield. >> >> Is there any way to shorten the width of the displayed textfield?
