Hi Team,

We have application with custom drawing and it is working in <iOS 14 beta devices and When I ran the sample on iOS 14 beta devices, I have observed drawRect is not called.

I have created sample application. Please let me know what is changed here.

Thanks,

Reported behaviour to apple, Here is the Apple engineering team feedback:

Engineering has provided the following information regarding this issue:
drawRect: is not intended to be an override point for UITextField. If you're intending to override the look of a UITextField, we suggest >you assign a UIImage to the background property.

Hope this helps

It seems the signature of the draw function has changed, I was able to get it working by overriding the following:

override func drawText(in rect: CGRect){

}
