UITextField doesn't provide a property like frame for leftView; it having only one property like bounds makes it like navigation controller bar button items positions; we cant change the leftView position . See here for reference.

Try this ...

NSArray *itemArray = @[@"<", @">"];
    UISegmentedControl *segmentedControl = [[UISegmentedControl alloc] initWithItems:itemArray];
  **segmentedControl.center = CGPointMake(03, 15);**
segmentedControl.segmentedControlStyle = UISegmentedControlStylePlain;


self.textField.leftView = segmentedControl;
self.textField.leftViewMode = UITextFieldViewModeAlways;

Also change your textfield's border style to other than round rect..

Hope this helps
