# rightViewRect(forBounds:)

Returns the drawing location of the text field’s right overlay view.

## Declaration

```swift
func rightViewRect(forBounds bounds: CGRect) -> CGRect
```

## Parameters

- `bounds`: The bounding rectangle of the receiver.

## Return Value

Return Value The rectangle in which to draw the right overlay view.

## Discussion

Discussion You should not call this method directly. If you want to place the right overlay view in a different location, you can override this method and return the new rectangle. Note that the drawing rectangle remains unchanged in a right-to-left user interface.
