Hi, Could you please explain how to use SF Symbols animations in Final Cut? I would greatly appreciate your help. Thank you!

I'm trying to download version 2.1 of SF symbols even though version 6 is out because I have a older macOS but I can't find it. So, how would I work around this?

I am trying to figure out how to set a button's label icon to match the button style when inside a list. These four buttons display differently depending on context – if put inside a List or a VStack: Button(role: .destructive) {} label: { Label("Test", systemImage: "figure") }.buttonStyle(.automatic) Button(role: .destructive) {} label: { Label("Test", systemImage: "figure") }.buttonStyle(.bordered) Button {} label: { Label("Test", systemImage: "figure") }.buttonStyle(.borderedProminent) Button(role: .destructive) {} label: { Label("Test", systemImage: "figure") }.buttonStyle(.borderedProminent) Inside a List, which looks weird in my opinion. For reference, this is what they look like inside a VStack, which is what I'd expect: I am not sure if this is intentional or a bug. If there are any workaround which do not explicitly set a specific color, like .foreground(.red), please let me know.

The following icon has been introduced in Safari's address bar for iOS 18: I’d like to use it in my app to guide users on how to enable my Safari extension, but I couldn’t find it in SF Symbols beta 6.0 (99). Is this because it’s still in beta and will be available for third-party use later, or is it a private icon that only Apple can use? I hope I just overlooked something.

I have created a custom logo in the SFSymbols 6.1 app and exported it as SVG. clock.arrow.trianglehead.clockwise.rotate.90.svg The icon consists of two layers and I want them to animate by layer. This works for the wiggle effect (the two layers are moving independently), but not for the rotate effect (the logo moves as a whole). Why? This is my code: let imageView = UIImageView() imageView.preferredSymbolConfiguration = UIImage.SymbolConfiguration(scale: .large) imageView.image = UIImage(named: "clock.arrow.trianglehead.clockwise.rotate.90", in: nil, with: nil) imageView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false let imageView2 = UIImageView() imageView2.preferredSymbolConfiguration = UIImage.SymbolConfiguration(scale: .large) imageView2.image = UIImage(named: "clock.arrow.trianglehead.clockwise.rotate.90", in: nil, with: nil) imageView2.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false imageView.addSymbolEffect(.rotate.byLayer, options: .repeat(.continuous)); imageView2.addSymbolEffect(.wiggle.byLayer, options: .repeat(.continuous)); view.addSubview(imageView) view.addSubview(imageView2) NSLayoutConstraint.activate([ imageView.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.centerXAnchor), imageView.centerYAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.centerYAnchor), imageView2.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.centerXAnchor), imageView2.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: imageView.bottomAnchor, constant: 40), ])

When using the new ‘addSymbolEffect’ effect method on NSImageView with the ‘.rotate.byLayer’ parameter with an applicable SF Symbol 6 symbol, the resulting animation is not completely as expected, to say it mildly. This is the code line I use: imageView.addSymbolEffect(.rotate.byLayer, options: .repeat(.continuous), animated: true) The correct layer rotates around the correct anchor point, but the whole image is moving up and down. The same code with the same symbol in iOS 18 beta runs perfectly. Does anyone know how to get this new rotate API correctly working in macOS 15 beta? In case an Apple engineer reads this: FB13916874 contains example projects for macOS (wobbling rotation) and iOS (perfect rotation), and a screen recording what I see in macOS 15 beta.

Hello. Icon fonts such as Font Awesome 6 and react-native-vector-icons are being rejected submission with the automated Invalid Binary error. ITMS-90853: Invalid font - There was an error validating the font named 'FontAwesome6Free-Solid' at 'private-app-name/FontAwesome6_Solid.ttf'. ‘glyf’ table instructions. These fonts have previously worked over the course of the last 3 years without issue and just stopped working on Monday. GitHub is filled with related issues and bug reports. This is likely affecting thousands of apps.

Hi, I'm creating a SF Symbols image like this: var img = UIImage(systemName: "x.circle" ,withConfiguration: symbolConfig)!.withTintColor(.red) In the debugger the image is really red. and I'm using this image to create a SKTexture: let shuffleTexture = SKTexture(image: img) The texture image is ALWAYS black and I have no idea how to change it's color. Nothing I've tried so far works. Any ideas how to solve this? Thank you! Best Regards, Frank

When a widget is using the new tinted mode in iOS 18 the Weather app shows the SF Symbols in both white and the tint color. For example, a tinted sun with a white arrow for sunrise. I can't figure out how to do this. If I add widgetAccentable to the Image(systemName:) the entire Image becomes the tint color. If I don't use it no combination of rendering mode or foreground style makes the tint color appear. I can't find any mention of this in the WWDC sessions.

Hello, I'm using the custom symbol feature in the official SF Symbols app. I'm wondering if there is a way to sync my custom symbols across different devices? Since I have multiple Macs to work on, maybe iCloud?

Hi, When putting an image that uses systemName next to a text will they be baseline aligned by default ? -- Kindest Regards

Hi there! After a few months off, I'm starting a new app. I'm making a TabView like this: import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View {     @State private var tab: Tab = .adventures     var body: some View {         TabView(selection: $tab) {                         Text("Explore")                 .tag(Tab.explore)                 .tabItem {                     Label("Explore", systemImage: "airplane.circle")                 }             Text("Profile")                 .tag(Tab.profile)                 .tabItem {                     Label("Profile", systemImage: "person")                 }         }     }     enum Tab {         case explore, profile     } } As you noticed, I want airplane.circle and person SF Symbols on the TabView but SwiftUI is showing airplane.circle.fill and person.fill in the preview canvas and also when I run the app in the simulator. Why it is forcing me to show those icons? Xcode version: 13.4.1 SF Symbols version: 3.3 iOS deployment target: 15.0 Thank you.

Hello, we're observing a strange issue with SF Symbols. We do the following steps: Select a rather basic symbol like paintpalette.fill Duplicate it as Custom Symbol Select resulting Custom symbol, Combine Symbol with Component, combine it with one of the enclosures, square.fill Export resulting Combined Symbol as a Symbol (we select XCode 15, but selecting XCode 14 or lower usually doesn't have any effect) Import this asset into XCode Immediately we see the first problem: with 'Automatic' render option, XCode renders it as a black square. To render it in XCode we need to select 'Template' / 'Multicolor' / 'Hierarchical'. More, when we use that icon in the app, it is rendered OK in iOS 17.5.1 on both iPhones and iPads, but on lower iOS versions (15.8.2, 16.7.8) it is rendered as simply a colored square. Now, naturally, we suspect that this has to do with symbols availability for different iOS versions, but that particular paintpallette.fill is available in iOS 16.0+ in all forms, so that would explain why it doesn't work on iOS 15, but not in iOS 16. Moreover, we observe similar results with fully custom symbols entirely designed by us when used with components: importing a fully custom symbol and combining it with component (square) sometimes results in just a square rendered in older versions of iOS, so we sometimes get symbols working in all versions (15.8.2, 16.7.8, 17.5.1), and sometimes they are corretly rendered only in 17.5.1. On older versions it usually looks like this: What are we doing wrong?

Hi, When watching SF Symbols WWDC videos about SF Symbols the recommendations is always to center align them, but suppose we are making sidebar menu items where we have VStack of HStacks , and each Stack have an SF Symbol and a text in this case how can SF Symbols be center aligned ? they will mostly right aligned so will this damage the design ? specially if they have like badges ? -- Kind Regards

I'm trying to use a custom system image for my App Shortcut: AppShortcut( intent: AppOpenIntent(), phrases: ["Open \(.applicationName)"], shortTitle: "Open App", systemImageName: "custom.image" ) I've added custom.image to Images.xcassets for my project, but the shortcuts icon is always blank in the Shortcuts app. Is it possible to use custom system images for app shortcuts?

I can set color of the SF symbol image in the application window but cannot do the same in the menu bar. I wonder how I can change the color in the menu? import SwiftUI @main struct ipmenuApp: App { var body: some Scene { MenuBarExtra { Image(systemName: "bookmark.circle.fill") .renderingMode(.original) .foregroundStyle(.red) } label: { Image(systemName: "bookmark.circle.fill") .renderingMode(.original) .foregroundStyle(.red) } } } xcodebuild -version Xcode 15.0 Build version 15A240d

Hi all, I am a UI/UX designer working on several commercial projects, and I have a few questions that I need you to answer: Can I use the icons from your SF Symbols set in my application? This is a SAAS application and is used on various platforms such as macOS and Windows. Is SF Symbols only allowed for use in applications running on Apple platforms? Meaning, if my application is used on a MacBook or iPhone, am I allowed to use your icon set? If usage is not permitted on platforms other than Apple’s, how can I legally use them on those platforms? Does Apple sell licenses for using SF Symbols on other platforms? If so, what is the cost? Looking forward to your response.

Currently I have a cloud syncing status icon that utilizes the new "rotate" symbol effect introduced with iOS 18. After the synchronization is complete, I want to replace the icon with another symbol using the "replace" contentTransition. These are the codes I used to achieve this: Image(systemName: coreDataStack.cloudKitUIStatus.symbolName) .foregroundColor(coreDataStack.cloudKitUIStatus.symbolColor) .symbolEffect(.rotate, isActive: coreDataStack.cloudKitUIStatus == .inProgress) .contentTransition(.symbolEffect(.replace)) However, the rotation effect continues after the replace transition. This means the new icon (checkmark.icloud.fill) continues the spinning animation from the previous symbol (arrow.triangle.2.circlepath.icloud) until it completes the full circle. How can I stop the rotation immediately before the contentTransition? Thanks!

I am trying to find the following icon. I have gone through all the icons in SF Symbols 5.1 but have been unable to locate it. Does anyone know what this icon is or how I can get it?

the file does not show a black fill but the app shows a black circle. since it's to long https://gist.github.com/YutaTheTraveler/0b8c11faf997f2118d19bbd009d490ba.js
