UISearchBar magnifying glass icon goes outside searchbar

Question

When searchbar is in inactive state and the placeholder is too big, the magnifying glass icon goes outside the searchbar. Anyone knows how to fix this? Nothing

     lazy var searchBar: UISearchBar = {
        let searchBar = UISearchBar()
        searchBar.autocorrectionType = .yes
        searchBar.autocapitalizationType = .none
        searchBar.placeholder = ChangeToLanguage(SEARCH_LABEL_PLACEHOLDER_SEARCHMODULES)
        searchBar.delegate = self
        searchBar.isTranslucent = false
        let searchBarTextField = searchBar.value(forKey: "searchField") as? UITextField
        searchBarTextField?.tintColor = GlobalTintColor
        searchBar.barTintColor = GlobalTintColor
        return searchBar
    }()

No. It's a string which is too big for the searchbar to hold. So it truncates it. But also pushes the magnifying glass icon outside. — Rakesha Shastri, Mar 05 '18 at 09:30

Try adjusting the position of search bar icon by grabbing the UITextField attached to UISearchBar as mentioned in this post. https://stackoverflow.com/a/36594565/2740582
