UITextField start at end of text

I have a UITextField that displays a long text string. The problem is that when I first open the view containing the UITextField, it automatically shows the 开发者_运维问答end of my text; I want it to show the beginning.

I read the UITextField Class Reference on the Apple dev center, but nothing seems to allow me to change it. How can I do this?

UITextField does not support this. You might consider switching to UITextView (which has a scrollRangeToVisible: method).
