I am hitting this exact wall right now. Before finding this thread I did all the same things you commented - with the same results too :-/ I’m about to ditch Menu for a non-native menu solution because I really like the UX with a sheet being presented from the menu. What did you end up doing?

For anyone else stumbling on this post like I did... I verified OP @NicolasBrunnerSRF post appears to be an issue in ipadOS 17.x; but is resolved in ipadOS 18.x. The code recognizes the horizontal size has changed; but SwiftUI doesn't reflect the change in the UI element from sheet to fullScreenCover. I haven't found a work around :-\ @NicolasBrunnerSRF thanks for sharing your .modal ViewModifier.

Using TextField in an .alert() and this bug seems to be preventing the OK button from executing: .alert("New Category", isPresented: $showNewCategoryNameAlert) { TextField("Enter Name", text: $userNewCategoryName) Button("OK", action: { print("Clicked OK") addCategory(newName: userNewCategoryName) userNewCategoryName = "" }).disabled(userNewCategoryName.isEmpty) Button("Cancel", role: .cancel) { } Enter Name Tap OK - dismisses Print statement and addCategory don't run BUT! Launch the .alert() again and click OK, everything executes. This issue is not present in iOS 18. Open to ideas for a work around!
