#SwiftUI

I built a #swiftui font selector inspired by Letraset’s rub-on letters that I used to love playing with when I was younger. Go figure?

the conversations screen is prettier although not particularly informative #tootsdk #Mastodon #swiftui #fedicat

I'm at a loss. I want to create a custom `.sheet` #SwiftUI modifier, that has padding along all the edges, & can have a dynamic height.

I have this working with a`.overlay()` modifier, driven by various things, but it's becoming cumbersome to maintain at scale.

The standard implementation of `.sheet` doesn't do this? I tried digging into some #UIKit, but that didn't go well... (I’ve not used much UIKit in my life)

Seeing a full view width button on iPadOS 17’s update screen reminds me of when I was a #SwiftUI newbie and did similar things.

I used the new #SwiftUI `scrollTargetBehavior(.paging)` API in Wallaroo 1.4 (https://wallaroo.app). It's so much nicer than the hacked up `TabView` and `GeometryReader` stuff I used previously. (Sadly the old one is still used on older OSes because the new API requires iOS 17 / macOS 14.)

There was one thing that threw me off for a couple hours, though: The inner container (`LazyHStack` in our case) absolutely needs to have spacing explicitly set to 0 or else the pages won't land correctly!

My Scoreo update for #iOS17 and macOS #Sonoma is available now! I've got lots more to add for 17, but this new version takes advantage of some nice new features in #SwiftUI to nicely clean up some of the UI. I've also migrated to using Swift Graphs and wow it's so easy to make fantastic graphs now!

Today I created an AsyncButton in #SwiftUI that automatically creates a Task for you so you can #await calls inside its action.

It automatically shows a progress icon, disables the button while in progress & even indicates success/failure! ✨

@siddhantgoel I tried paperless but I don’t like having a server. So for now, I use the Johnny decimal system. But I really wish there was a proper documents app with sorting, cataloging, tagging and search.

Has anyone managed to integrate the new #SwiftUI SubscriptionStoreView with an additional One-Time purchase?

I have a love/hate relationship with #SwiftUI. I love the concept and when it works it’s amazing. When it doesn’t work though, then you’re just fucked. Almost no ways for workarounds.
And with every major or even minor release you can be sure that they broke some stuff in new ways. You can just hope it doesn’t touch stuff important to your project.

I thought i worked around on most issues with SwiftUI document based apps. But of course in Sonoma there’s a new one. 😒

Just spent an entire day cobbling together a solution for determining when a user opens and closes a #SwiftUI Menu so I can hide a floating bar at the bottom of the screen while the menu is open. An entire day and so far I have a mostly workable approach involving layering a simultaneous gesture box over the menu button and inserting a clear overlay over everything while the menu is visible to trap taps outside the menu. Would be much better if there was an out of the box way of doing this.

Prototyping some designs. These may or may not ever see the light of day #SwiftUI

Let's say I wanted to create some MapKit overlays of shapes made up of curves. How would I handle this in #MapKit for a #SwiftUI app? By the looks of things, MapKit support for SwiftUI got a lot better in #iOS 17, but I don't see any documentation related to overlay shapes more complex than polygons.

How would you approach this?

I've got a very early build of my software license management app, which I'm calling Serial Box (hehe).

There's still some low-hanging fruit to take care of, therefore, I'm doing a closed beta to get some feedback, mostly on UX stuff right now. If you're interested shoot me a DM and I’ll reply with a TestFlight link when/if it gets approved.

Note that Serial Box does require macOS Sonoma.

I ran into this issue when I tried to use a UISheetPresentationController from SwiftUI to get more flexibility for sheet configuration, which was only available in UIKit. I was so happy to learn that iOS 16.4 brought all the missing features into SwiftUI and I wouldn’t need UIKit anymore!

Didn’t last long, though. It turns out this animation glitch is an underlying issue, present even when using SwiftUI sheet APIs only. Reported as FB13206351.

Sigh. I need a Core Image filter that replaces a source colour in an image with a target colour, with some level of tolerance. All the tutorials that I have found online stop just short of that and simply tell me how to apply a sepia tone filter or something. Or even worse, tell me to use template image rendering, which doesn’t cut it here.

It can’t be that difficult, can it? I already have an example that works on the CPU, but I’d like a bit more performance.

Newcomer to #swiftui and #macOS development, it took weeks before I understood why I was seeing so many "<private>" messages on my app console.

On a whim I tried my app with an iPhone simulator and then I realized how much relevant info I was missing out lol

I read many places saying that private logs would show if I had a debugger attached, but it simply isn't the case for my macOS app 🤷 still a mystery to me.

And this was actually made with Kolibri itself. One tap and you have the SwiftUI code for such an animation. It took me maybe 10 mins to make it using SF Symbols and pre-made animations in Kolibri.

On #iOS17, how do you set up an interactive widget that allows running interactions when the screen is locked? (For example standby). I figured static var authenticationPolicy = .alwaysAllowed would do the trick but this still asks for the phone to be unlocked first. #iosdev #swiftui

The iOS 17 keyframe animation stuff is pretty cool and I want to include it in Kolibri as an option. But Kolibri supports iOS 16 too and I want to support it for a while.
So should it be a general option like you can select between generating code for iOS 16 or iOS 17 style? I think yes, but should this be an app wide setting or a per document setting? 🤔 #SwiftUI
Per document sounds cool but maybe it's confusing, like the user sets it for iOS 17 and then in another doc it’s iOS 16 unexpectedly

Cork version 1.2.1 is out.

This update includes a sweet feature which will be super useful for Sonoma: system compatibility checking! Cork now checks if a package you're trying to install is optimized for your macOS version, and will give you a warning if it's not.

In the future, you will also be able to set which macOS version to check.

This update also includes a lot of bugfixes related to navigation.

Fun thing about #SwiftUI list rows: using a switch statement instead of an if / else can completely change how a list treats the row. For example, returning EmptyView() completely hides a row in if/else, whereas it doesn't in a switch statement.

Airbnb publicly adopting SwiftUI is huge validation for the framework’s maturity. They’ve been advocates of their own homegrown UI framework Epoxy since 2016 which they deemed necessary to bridge the gaps in UIKit. Transitioning away from Expoxy to SwiftUI sends a clear signal: SwiftUI is mature, viable and the best way to build iOS apps.

Does anyone have any design tips on how I can make it better?

#macOS #swiftUI

Strange random crash when debugging in Xcode. Happens when I present a sheet with a NavigationStack and a List within. I don't really know what's the issue, seems related to an index, maybe for the list items...

#SwiftUI #Xcode #BuildInPublic #iOSDev #indiedev

@phill Yep, until SwiftUI will be stable across at least 3 OS releases, it's really hard to use it right now in larger, matura apps 🤔

Indie devs will have problems as well, it's ok to ship a new app with iOS 17 as requirement, but what about few years?

#swiftui

To be clear, #SwiftUI has to make UX decisions. It's providing us with complex components after all. But this one seems completely arbitrary. Why should it not behave the same everywhere by default? 🤔

When using the .searchable modifier in #SwiftUI to add a search bar, it looks like the bar is always shown by default if it's on the first screen of your navigation, and hidden by default otherwise. Now, you can tell it to always be shown but you can’t tell it to be hidden by default!

I don't think SwiftUI should make that kind of UX decision, but if it does, it should always allow you to override it. I want my search bar to be hidden by default on my first screen… 😪

Some thing that I really dislike about #SwiftUI is the provided build in integration with #CoreData or #SwiftData. The coupling of persistence and UI is a violation of separation of concerns.

When you want to change your persistence you need to change your UI.

#swiftUI Question: What happened to the .scrollTarget modifier? I have trouble using an HStack with the new Scroll methods, it just does not work. Usind LazyHStack + .scrollTargetLayout() works, but I don't want the LazyHStack since I don’t want it to use the full height.

Apples developer videos have the .scrollTarget modifier, but it seems to not exist anymore. .id or .tag works for scrolling *to* the view, but when scrolling *on* the view, the position id does *not* update.

I filed a feedback for that: #FB13194198 because I think this is missing. presentationDetents were added to #SwiftUI so other presentation modes should also be added for iPad.

I want to present a "small" sheet on iPad using #SwiftUI like the "What's New in Photos" attached (I think this is a UIModalPresentationStyle.formSheet in #UIKit).

So is formSheet not available in SwiftUI?

I've created an even simpler version if you want to check on your side. I just tested on iOS 16.4 and the issue is a little bit different. The title does not resize from large to inline (we don't see the large), it just appears in inline after one second.

Here is a video of the second issue. It seems to work correctly on the first navigation but breaks after...

- Detail is a Text where the title display mode is set to .inline.

3. Can’t change the sidebar background selection

I have a #SwiftUI question for you lovely nerds ❤️

A Button can take any View as a label, when you're writing a custom ButtonStyle, and access `configuration.label` — is there any way of knowing if it conforms to Text, or Image for example?

Is there an easy way to add „Haptic Touch“ in #SwiftUI? I don’t mean the „LongPressGestureRecognizer“ + Feedback, I mean something that works *exactly* as Apples Buttons that have a secondary action on long press. They should take the accessibility option to change the touch sensibility into account, and also work in ScrollViews.

And no, I don’t mean „How to Use Menus“. I know that. I don’t want a Menu. I need something custom.

I thought now could be a good time to usr NavigationStack in my SwiftUI app as it anyway requires iOS 16. Turns out the API is still pretty buggy and does not work at all when trying to use navigationDestination(for:) and a NavigationPath. Nothing is ever triggered when pushing stuff onto the path.

Seems Apple's folks all the time break API:s that apparently used to work. Don't they have any automated testing there to detect these bugs?

I tried:
- Create a custom type that conforms to Identifiable.
- Create two polylines (inner & outer)
- Use them in the Map builder.

It still does not work. It seems we can't have two MapPolyline for the same coordinates. And I don't know how to change the style of a single one.

#MapKit #SwiftUI #UIKit

When using #MapKit with #SwiftUI, is there a way to have a polyline in a colour with a stroke in another one? Like in Apple Maps (first screenshot).

In #UIKit, I used to add the same polyline twice but with different renderer (width & color). It does not seem to work with #SwiftUI.
