White background show as transparent in TextFIeld

Question

I'm using the new Xcode beta version 12.0 beta 3 (12A8169g). During the first check, I noticed that TextField with white background shows as transparent background TextField:

TextField on iOS 14:

TextField on iOS 13.3:

I was trying to change the TextField background but nothing is happening.

Same behaviour on Xcode 12 beta 6. – idrougge Aug 31 '20 at 09:53 — idrougge, Aug 31 '20 at 09:53

Maybe you are setting color from xib/storyboard. Don't do that. Just set background color from viewDidLoad() like the following.

self.myTF.backgroundColor = .white

It worked for me.

On Xcode 12 beta it didn’t work from the code ether. I had to wait for Apple to release Xcode to the public and did a workaround: added a UIView as a background – NDM May 05 '21 at 03:48
I used Xcode 12.1 stable version. Don't rely on beta. – Jamshed Alam May 05 '21 at 05:02
