Text is not showing in uitextview - iphone

Question

I have added a textview on uiview. and when i am trying to enter data into it then its not showing.
Following in my code
questionView1 = [[UIView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(30, 40, 260, 350)];
[questionView1 setBackgroundColor:[UIColor blackColor]];
quesText1 = [[UITextView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(10, 20, 240, 270)];
quesText1.layer.borderWidth = 10.0f;
[quesText1 setText:#"Everything Ok"];
quesText1.layer.borderColor = [[UIColor grayColor] CGColor];
quesText1.tag = 100;
quesText1.delegate = self;
[questionView1 addSubview:quesText1];
its showing the default text but tryinng to enter data through keyboard then its not showing.
However, when i checked in its delegate(below) then its printing the correct value
- (void)textViewDidEndEditing:(UITextView *)textView;{
NSLog(#"%#",textView.text);\\ print correct value but value not showing in uitextview area.
}
Dnt know how and why its happening.. anyone knows?

Answer 1

once check this one ,
UIView* questionView1 = [[UIView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(30, 40, 260, 350)];
[questionView1 setBackgroundColor:[UIColor blackColor]];
UITextView* quesText1 = [[UITextView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 240, 270)];
quesText1.contentInset = UIEdgeInsetsMake(20.0, 0.0, 20.0, 0.0);
quesText1.layer.borderWidth = 10.0f;
quesText1.contentMode=UIViewContentModeCenter;
[quesText1 setText:#"Everything Ok"];
quesText1.layer.borderColor = [[UIColor grayColor] CGColor];
quesText1.tag = 100;
quesText1.delegate = self;
[questionView1 addSubview:quesText1];
[self.view addSubview:questionView1];
questionView1.userInteractionEnabled=YES;
set this line in your code
quesText1.contentInset = UIEdgeInsetsMake(20.0, 0.0, 20.0, 0.0);

Answer 2

Things to try out
Your background color is black and the textcolor will be black by
default.So set text color to white
The problem may be setting the border such that it covers the
default text

Answer 3

Please try this...
step1:
[self.view addSubView:questionView1];
step2:
adopt the protocol 'UITextViewDelegate' in your .h file and also put the following code
-(BOOL)textView:(UITextView *)textView shouldChangeTextInRange:(NSRange)range replacementText:(NSString *)text
{
if ([text isEqualToString:#"\n"]) {
[textView resignFirstResponder];
}
return YES;
}
