I must be missing something here. I want to put a landscape image in a geometry reader that contains a ZStack that contains an image and an overlay centred on top of the Image. I would like the ZStack and GeoReader's sizes to be the size of Image. (ie I want geometry.size to be the size of the image, which can be used to control the offset of the overlay's position.) Unfortunately the ZStack also includes the space above the image (ie the top safeArea) and the GeometryReader also includes all the space below the Image. (so geometry.size.height is greater than the height of Image) I've gone down rabbit holes of adding other items above/below, but I don't seem to be able to prevent the GeometryReader from being vertically greedy. eg the Text(" ") above the ZStack in the VStack solves the ZStack claiming the top safe area. But adding Text(" ") below the ZStack does not prevent the GeometryReader from claiming more vertical space below the image. Any/all guidance greatly appreciated. struct ContentView: View { var body: some View { VStack { // Text(" ") GeometryReader { geometry in ZStack { Image( uiImage: .init(imageLiteralResourceName: "LandscapeSample") ) .resizable() .aspectRatio(contentMode: .fit) Text("Hello, world!") .background(.white) } .background(.red) } .background(.blue) // Text(" ") } } }

Hello together, since Xcode Version > 15 the following error handling causes following error "Pattern of type 'DecodingError' cannot match 'Never' func getSupportedCountries() async { // fetch all documents from collection "seasons" from firestore let queryCountries = try? await db.collection("countries").getDocuments() if queryCountries != nil { self.countries = (queryCountries!.documents.compactMap({ (queryDocumentSnapshot) -> Country? in let result = Result { try? queryDocumentSnapshot.data(as: Country.self) } switch result { case .success(let country): if let country = country { // A country value was successfully initialized from the DocumentSnapshot self.errorMessage = nil return country } else { // A nil value was successfully initialized from the DocumentSnapshot, // or the DocumentSnapshot was nil self.errorMessage = "Document doesn't exist." return nil } case .failure(let error): // A Country value could not be initialized from the DocumentSnapshot switch error { case DecodingError.typeMismatch(_, let context): self.errorMessage = "\(error.localizedDescription): \(context.debugDescription)" case DecodingError.valueNotFound(_, let context): self.errorMessage = "\(error.localizedDescription): \(context.debugDescription)" case DecodingError.keyNotFound(_, let context): self.errorMessage = "\(error.localizedDescription): \(context.debugDescription)" case DecodingError.dataCorrupted(let key): self.errorMessage = "\(error.localizedDescription): \(key)" default: self.errorMessage = "Error decoding document: \(error.localizedDescription)" } return nil } })) } else { self.errorMessage = "No documents in 'countries' collection" return } } the interesting part of the code where XCODE shows an error is from "switch error" downwards. Does anyone of you have an idea what's wrong? Ay help appreciated ! Thx, Peter

Hi! I'm having issues retrieving the intrinsics matrix of camera poses for photogrammetry sessions. The camera object always seems to be nil, no matter what dataset I use. From the documentation, I can't see any indication of this issue, is there something I need to do on the code side? Or it's something related to the photo dataset? I'm on MacOS 15.2

I want to compare the colors of two model entities (spheres). How can i do it? The method i'm currently trying to apply is as follows case let .color(controlColor) = controlMaterial.baseColor, controlColor == .green { // Flip target sphere colour if let targetMaterial = targetsphere.model?.materials.first as? SimpleMaterial, case let .color(targetColor) = targetMaterial.baseColor, targetColor == .blue { targetsphere.model?.materials = [SimpleMaterial(color: .green, isMetallic: false)] // Change to |1⟩ } else { targetsphere.model?.materials = [SimpleMaterial(color: .blue, isMetallic: false)] // Change to |0⟩ } } This method (baseColor) was deprecated in swift 15.0 changes to 'color' but i cannot compare the value color to each other.👾

Some reason the image 'Ren' is not being loaded even though it is in the project how can I resolve this issue in Xcode Playgrounds?

When I go to the App Settings menu in Swift Playgrounds and attempt to upload to App Store Connect, I run into the below error screen: I am registered with the Apple Developer Program. Swift Playgrounds is updated to its latest version. This is occurring on both macOS and iPadOS. All the information I put in is valid. Any reason why this would be happening?

Hi, I develop a feature to get the iPhone's total storage. After some researching, the way I can get the total storage of iPhone is using this code. class DiskStatus { /// Helper method to query against a resource value key private static func getVolumeResourceValues(for key: URLResourceKey) -> URLResourceValues? { let fileUrl = URL(fileURLWithPath: "/") let results = try? fileUrl.resourceValues(forKeys: [key]) return results } /// Volume’s total capacity in bytes. public static var totalCapacity: Int? { get { let resourceValues = getVolumeResourceValues(for: .volumeTotalCapacityKey) return resourceValues?.volumeTotalCapacity } } } When I print the totalCapacity, its value is 254807724032 bytes. If I convert it to GB using decimal system it will be 254.8GB. When I looked into Settings, the total storage of my iPhone is 256GB. My questions are: Why the total storage shown in Settings different with my code result? How to achieve so that I can show exact value in Settings? Thank you.

I am currently studying the Accelerate library by referring to Apple documentation. Here is the link to the referenced document: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/accelerate/veclib/vforce When I executed the sample code provided at the bottom of the document, I found a case where the results were different. let n = 10_000 let x = (0..<n).map { _ in Float.random(in: 1 ... 10_000) } let y = x.map { return sqrt($0) } and let y = [Float](unsafeUninitializedCapacity: n) { buffer, initializedCount in vForce.sqrt(x, result: &buffer) initializedCount = n } The code below is provided to observe the issue described above. import Accelerate Task { let n = 1//10_000 let x = (0..<n).map { _ in Float(6737.015)//Float.random(in: 1 ... 10_000) } let y = x.map { return sqrt($0) } try? await Task.sleep(nanoseconds: 1_000_000_000) let z = [Float](unsafeUninitializedCapacity: n) { buffer, initializedCount in vForce.sqrt(x, result: &buffer) initializedCount = n } } For a value of 6737.015 when calculating the square root: Using the sqrt(_:) function gives the result 82.07932, While using the vForce.sqrt(_:result:) function gives the result 82.07933. Using a calculator, the value comes out as 82.07932139, which shows that the result from vForce is incorrect. Could you explain the reason behind this difference?

I have discovered a strange phenomenon about iOS18.1.1. I set a logo as the titleView in my navigationBar, and then when I added a view to the navigationBar and pushed it to another page before popping it back up, I found that the view hierarchy of the navigationBar would change in a very short time. In this short time, the logo would cover the view. I did not find this phenomenon on devices below iOS18.1.1. I would like to know what changes have occurred in iOS18.1.1 that caused the view hierarchy to change during the pop process. I hope someone can help me. Thank you very much

Can anyone explain how AVAssetExportSession works in iOS 18 and earlier versions?

Hey there! Hope you are starting the year with great joy. My situation I'm building a new product that is based on detecting certain text on screen in realtime. The product is only targeted for Mac and it's built with Swift My problem I need to get the exact position of a text element with the Apple Accessibility API but I can't figurate it out. I managed to get the AXUIElement where the text is placed but it's position is too broad and off target. My discoveries so far I've tried OCR but is too slow for what I'm building, so the only possible way I can think of is with the Accessibility API. Thank you in advanced.

I have developed a mobile app using SwiftUI that supports GoogleMaps. Now I am in the process of building a CarPlay application. I assume CarPlay only supports Apple MapKit, as I could not find any way to integrate the Google Maps. Below are few queries, Could you please guide me on how I can obtain the user's current location on the CarPlay app launch? Is there a way CarPlay can get the details from the mobile app(not pretty sure as its using Google Maps)? If the user is logged out from the mobile app, what is the flow in CarPlay? Do we have any standard login page asking user to login to the mobile app first? Is there any UI asking the user to capture the location in CarPlay? This is my first CarPlay app. Kindly guide me to a document or so that covers these details. Thanks a ton!!

Here is a relatively simple code fragment: let attributedQuote: [NSAttributedString.Key: Any] = [ .font: FieldFont!, .foregroundColor: NSColor.red] let strQuote = NSAttributedString.init(string:"Hello World", attributes:attributedQuote) strQuote.draw(in: Rect1) It compiles without an issue, bur when I execute it, I get: "*** -colorSpaceName not valid for the NSColor <NSColor: 0x6000005adfd0>; need to first convert colorspace." I have tried everything I can think of. What's going on?

I am getting this error in a couple of places in my code with Task closure after setting Swift 6 as Language version in XCode. Passing closure as a 'sending' parameter risks causing data races between code in the current task and concurrent execution of the closure Below is minimally reproducible sample code. import Foundation final class Recorder { var writer = Writer() func startRecording() { Task { await writer.startRecording() print("started recording") } } func stopRecording() { Task { await writer.stopRecording() print("stopped recording") } } } actor Writer { var isRecording = false func startRecording() { isRecording = true } func stopRecording() { isRecording = false } } While making the class Recorder as Actor would fix the problem, I fear I will have to make too many classes as Actors in the class and in my scenario, there could be performance implications where real time audio and video frames are being processed. Further, I don't see any race condition in the code above. Does the error talk about possible race conditions that could arise if I were to call other functions on the self in future, or the current code itself is not safe?

I have developed a mobile app using SwiftUI. Now I am in the process of building a CarPlay application. I know how to test the CarPlay app using a simulator but here is my confusion, How to test the iPhone app and CarPlay together? I want to test few scenarios like, user login / logout from mobile app. Location enabled /disabled in the mobile app. I know that swiftUI handles the scenes by itself. Kindly help me validate the above scenarios as I am getting black screen on iPhone whenever the CarPlay is launched. Below is the code snippet, func application(_ application: UIApplication, configurationForConnecting connectingSceneSession: UISceneSession, options: UIScene.ConnectionOptions) -> UISceneConfiguration { if connectingSceneSession.role == .carTemplateApplication { let sceneConfiguration = UISceneConfiguration(name: "CarPlay Scene", sessionRole: connectingSceneSession.role) sceneConfiguration.delegateClass = CarPlaySceneDelegate.self return sceneConfiguration } // Configuration for other types of scenes return UISceneConfiguration(name: "Default Configuration", sessionRole: connectingSceneSession.role) } struct MyApp: App { @UIApplicationDelegateAdaptor(AppDelegate.self) var delegate var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { ContentView() .preferredColorScheme(.light) } } } Info.plist <key>UIApplicationSceneManifest</key> <dict> <key>UIApplicationSupportsMultipleScenes</key> <true/> <key>UISceneConfigurations</key> <dict> <key>CPTemplateApplicationSceneSessionRoleApplication</key> <array> <dict> <key>UISceneConfigurationName</key> <string>CarPlay Scene</string> <key>UISceneDelegateClassName</key> <string>$(PRODUCT_MODULE_NAME).CarPlaySceneDelegate</string> </dict> </array> </dict> </dict>

ApplicationMusicPlayer with queue created from playlist crashes with random occurrence shortly after skipping back or forth using controls embedded in the notification, with the error on console log: applicationController: xpc service connection interrupted. I've noticed that the issue occurs more frequently the shorter is time between skipping entries. Since ApplicationMusicPlayer is run on a remote process, the main app does not crash, but the music stops playing without any exception, and the playback control turns uninitiated. Here is how I'm initiating the queue: let entries = playlist .with(.entries).entries! .map { ApplicationMusicPlayer.Queue.Entry($0) } ApplicationMusicPlayer.shared.queue = .init( entries, startingAt: entries.last ) Please give me some tips on how to solve this. EDIT: The issue does not occur when navigating quickly through the station.

Have downloaded playgrounds 4.3 to my iPad Air running ipados 16.5. Trying to use playground “Get started with Apps” but receiving message “Unsupported file format Get Started with Apps.swiftpm cannot be opened in Swift Playgrounds”. I do not have Mac or windows PC so am stuck! Help ??

I am trying to migrate a WatchConnectivity App to Swift6 and I found an Issue with my replyHandler callback for sendMessageData. I am wrapping sendMessageData in withCheckedThrowingContinuation, so that I can await the response of the reply. I then update a Main Actor ObservableObject that keeps track of the count of connections that have not replied yet, before returning the data using continuation.resume. ... @preconcurrency import WatchConnectivity actor ConnectivityManager: NSObject, WCSessionDelegate { private var session: WCSession = .default private let connectivityMetaInfoManager: ConnectivityMetaInfoManager ... private func sendMessageData(_ data: Data) async throws -> Data? { Logger.shared.debug("called on Thread \(Thread.current)") await connectivityMetaInfoManager.increaseOpenSendConnectionsCount() return try await withCheckedThrowingContinuation({ continuation in self.session.sendMessageData( data, replyHandler: { data in Task { await self.connectivityMetaInfoManager .decreaseOpenSendConnectionsCount() } continuation.resume(returning: data) }, errorHandler: { (error) in Task { await self.connectivityMetaInfoManager .decreaseOpenSendConnectionsCount() } continuation.resume(throwing: error) } ) }) } Calling sendMessageData somehow causing the app to crash and display the debug message: Incorrect actor executor assumption. The code runs on swift 5 with SWIFT_STRICT_CONCURRENCY = complete. However when I switch to swift 6 the code crashes. I rebuilt a simple version of the App. Adding bit by bit until I was able to cause the crash. See Broken App Awaiting sendMessageData and wrapping it in a task and adding the @Sendable attribute to continuation, solve the crash. See Fixed App But I do not understand why yet. Is this intended behaviour? Should the compiler warn you about this? Is it a WatchConnectivity issue? I initially posted on forums.swift.org, but was told to repost here.
