Hi, A class initialized as the initial value of an @State property is not released until the whole View disappears. Every subsequent instance deinitializes properly. Am I missing something, or is this a known issue? struct ContentView: View { // 1 - init first SimpleClass instance @State var simpleClass: SimpleClass? = SimpleClass(name: "First") var body: some View { VStack { Text("Hello, world!") } .task { try? await Task.sleep(for: .seconds(2)) // 2 - init second SimpleClass instance and set as new @State // "First" should deinit simpleClass = SimpleClass(name: "Second") // 3 - "Second" deinit just fine simpleClass = nil } } } class SimpleClass { let name: String init(name: String) { print("init: \(name)") self.name = name } deinit { print("deinit: \(name)") } } output: init: First init: Second deinit: Second Thanks

on iOS you can choose to scale to view to have the app resize the screen easily in the developer environment. Scale to view is however not easily done on MacOS using NS to solve on MacOS now. Is it possible for the Apple developer team to make this easier for the Developer, as I understand it is for iOS applications?

Im student, hobbyst on developing. i have a problem inserting a custom slidee PNG to control volume of an áudio file in an app. The slidee built in Swift, runs ok. When i try to use a custom png it show in the Gui but when move its button right it disappear beyond the maximum but when i move ir left the minimamente is at middle of the slider scale

Hello togehter, i do have the following question. If I have my App run in landscape mode and a sheet view get's called, will it be possible to switch automatically from landscape mode in portrait mode and fix this device orientation? Once the sheet view get's dismissed or closed, the original view will come back and the device orientation shall switch back to landscape mode. Thanks you so much for your help!

There's an easily reproducible SwiftUI bug on macOS where an app's UI state no longer updates/re-renders for "Designed for iPad" apps (i.e. ProcessInfo.processInfo.isiOSAppOnMac == true). The bug occurs in Xcode and also if the app is running independent of Xcode. The bug occurs when: the user Hides the app (i.e. it goes into the background) the user puts the Mac to sleep (e.g. Apple menu > Sleep) a total of ~60 seconds transpires (i.e. macOS puts the app into the "suspended state") when the app is brought back into the foreground the UI no longer updates properly The only way I have found to fix this is to manually open a new actual full app window via File > New, in which case the app works fine again in the new window. The following extremely simple code in a default Xcode project illustrates the issue: import SwiftUI @main struct staleApp: App { @State private var isBright = true var body: some Scene { WindowGroup() { ZStack { (isBright ? Color.white : Color.black).ignoresSafeArea() Button("TOGGLE") { isBright.toggle(); print("TAPPED") } } .onAppear { print("\(isBright ? "light" : "dark") view appeared") } } } } For the code above, after Hiding the app and putting the computer to sleep for 60 seconds or more, the button no longer swaps views, although the print statements still appear in the console upon tapping the button. Also, while in this buggy state, i can get the view to update to the current state (i.e. the view triggered by the last tap) by manually dragging the corner of the app window to resize the window. But after resizing, the view again does not update upon button tapping until I resize the window again. so it appears the diff engine is mucked or that the Scene or WindowGroup are no longer correctly running on the main thread I have tried rebuilding the entire view hierarchy by updating .id() on views but this approach does NOT work. I have tried many other options/hacks but have not been able to reset the 'view engine' other than opening a new window manually or by using: @Environment(.openWindow) private var openWindow openWindow could be a viable solution except there's no way to programmatically close the old window for isiOSAppOnMac (@Environment(.dismissWindow) private var dismissWindow doesn't work for iOS)

The behavior of the Button in ScrollView differs depending on how the View is displayed modally. When the View is displayed as a .fullScreenCover, if the button is touched and scrolled without releasing the finger, the touch event is canceled and the action of the Button is not called. On the other hand, if the View is displayed as a .sheet, the touch event is not canceled even if the view is scrolled without lifting the finger, and the action is called when the finger is released. In order to prevent accidental interaction, I feel that the behavior of .fullScreenCover is better, as it cancels the event immediately when scrolling. Can I change the behavior of .sheet? Demo movie is here: https://x.com/kenmaz/status/1896498312737611891 Sample code import SwiftUI @main struct SampleApp: App { var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { ContentView() } } } struct ContentView: View { @State private var showSheet = false @State private var showFullScreen = false var body: some View { VStack(spacing: 16) { Button("Sheet") { showSheet.toggle() } Button("Full screen") { showFullScreen.toggle() } } .sheet(isPresented: $showSheet) { SecondView() } .fullScreenCover(isPresented: $showFullScreen) { SecondView() } .font(.title) } } struct SecondView: View { @Environment(\.dismiss) var dismiss var body: some View { ScrollView { Button("Dismiss") { dismiss() } .buttonStyle(MyButtonStyle()) .padding(.top, 128) .font(.title) } } } private struct MyButtonStyle: ButtonStyle { func makeBody(configuration: Self.Configuration) -> some View { configuration .label .foregroundStyle(.red) .background(configuration.isPressed ? .gray : .clear) } }

Hello all, I'm confused about how to show lanes in CarPlay. I understand CPLaneGuidance and CPLane I don't find anywhere where to tell Carplay which icon to show for each lane. I've found some information saying we put the icon in CPManeuver, but then CPManeuver is linked to only one CPLaneGuidance, and we can put only one icon in CPManeuver. At the same time, we might have multiple lanes. Any help, tips, or examples would be highly helpful.

Hi, Is there any way of changing the contentInset (UIKit variant) of a List in SwiftUI? I do not see any APIs for doing so, the closest I gotten is to use safeAreaInset . While visually that works the UX is broken as you can no longer "scroll" from the gap made by the .safeAreaInset(edge:alignment:spacing:content:) I have subbmited a feedback suggestion: FB16866956

I'd like to support different template views within a ViewThatFits for items within a list, allowing the list to optimize its layout for different devices. Within the child views is a Text view that is bound to the name of an item. I'd rather the Text view simply truncate the text as necessary although it instead is influencing which view is chosen by ViewThatFits. I'd also rather not artificially set the maxWidth of the Text view as it artificially limits the width on devices where it's not necessary (e.g. iPad Pro vs. iPad mini or iPhone). Any guidance or suggestions on how this can be accomplished as it looks very odd for the layout of one row in the list to be quite different than the rest of the rows.

I'm attempting to write a macOS version of https://stackoverflow.com/a/74935849/2178159. From my understanding, I should be able to set the menu property of an NSResponder and it will automatically show on right click. I've tried a couple things: A: set menu on an NSHostingController's view - when I do this and right or ctrl click, nothing happens. B: set menu on NSHostingController directly - when I do this I get a crash Abstract method -[NSResponder setMenu:] called from class _TtGC7SwiftUI19NSHostingControllerGVS_21_ViewModifier_...__. Subclasses must override C: manually call NSMenu.popup in a custom subclasses of NSHostingController or NSView's rightMouseDown method - nothing happens. extension View { func contextMenu(menu: NSMenu) -> some View { modifier(ContextMenuViewModifier(menu: menu)) } } struct ContextMenuViewModifier: ViewModifier { let menu: NSMenu func body(content: Content) -> some View { Interaction_UI( view: { content }, menu: menu ) .fixedSize() } } private struct Interaction_UI<Content: View>: NSViewRepresentable { typealias NSViewType = NSView @ViewBuilder var view: Content let menu: NSMenu func makeNSView(context: Context) -> NSView { let v = NSHostingController(rootView: view) // option A - no effect v.view.menu = menu // option B - crash v.menu = menu return v.view } func updateNSView(_ nsView: NSViewType, context: Context) { // part of option A nsView.menu = menu } }

I have a UITextView that contains paragraphs with text bullet lists (via NSTextList). I also implement NSTextContentStorageDelegate.textContentStorage(_:, textParagraphWith:) in order to apply some custom attributes to the text without affecting the underlying attributed text. My implementation returns a new NSParagraph that modifies the foreground color of the text. I based this on the example in the WWDC 21 session "Meet Text Kit 2". UITextView stops rendering the bullets when I implement the delegate function and return a custom paragraph. Why? func textContentStorage(_ textContentStorage: NSTextContentStorage, textParagraphWith range: NSRange) -> NSTextParagraph? { guard let originalText = textContentStorage.textStorage?.attributedSubstring(from: range) else { return nil } let updatedText = NSMutableAttributedString(attributedString: originalText) updatedText.addAttribute(.foregroundColor, value: UIColor.green, range: NSRange(location: 0, length: updatedText.length)) let paragraph = NSTextParagraph(attributedString: updatedText) // Verify that the text still contains NSTextList if let paragraphStyle = paragraph.attributedString.attribute(.paragraphStyle, at: 0, effectiveRange: nil) as? NSParagraphStyle { assert(!paragraphStyle.textLists.isEmpty) } else { assertionFailure("Paragraph has lost its text lists") } return paragraph }

A NavigationStack with a singular enum for .navigationDestination() works fine. Both NavigationLinks(value:) and directly manipulating the NavigationPath work fine for moving around views. Zero problems. The issue is when we instead use a NavigationSplitView, I've only dabbled with two-column splits (sidebar and detail) so far. Now, if the sidebar has its own NavigationStack, everything works nicely on an iPhone, but on an iPad, you can't push views onto the detail from the sidebar. (They're pushed on the sidebar) You can solve this by keeping a NavigationStack ONLY on the detail. Sidebar links now properly push onto the detail, and the detail can move around views by itself. However, if you mix NavigationLink(value:) with manually changing NavigationPath, it stops working with no error. If you only use links, you're good, if you only change the NavigationPath you're good. Mixing doesn't work. No error in the console either, the breakpoints hit .navigationDestination and the view is returned, but never piled up. (Further attempts do show the NavigationPath is being changed properly, but views aren't changing) This problem didn't happen when just staying on NavigationStack without a NavigationSplitView. Why mix? There's a few reasons to do so. NavigationLinks put the appropriate disclosure indicator (can't replicate its look 100% without it), while NavigationPaths let you trigger navigation without user input (.onChange, etc) Any insights here? I'd put some code samples but there's a metric ton of options I've tested here.

Hi, I've got an app that displays markdown in UITextView / NSTextView. I would like it to behave like Notes app does, that is if user types the line start modifier, e.g: "# " or "> " I would like the keyboard to show a capitalized letters. I've tried looking into overriding insertText - and it breaks the predictive text (can not insert white space). I've tried implementing UITextInputTokenizer but no luck either. Like I said, I see the Notes app does it perfectly, so maybe I'm missing something obvious or there is a way to do it without interrupting the auto-correction and predictive text. Ideally same thing can be applied to the NSTextView as the app support both platforms.

I have a SwiftUI project which has the following hierarchy: IOSSceneDelegate (App target) - depends on EntryPoint and Presentation static libs. Presentation (Static library) - Depends on EntryPoint static lib. Contains UI related logic and updates the UI after querying the data layer. EntryPoint (Static library) - Contains the entry point, AppDelegate (for its lifecycle aspects) etc. I've only listed the relevant targets here. SceneDelegate was initially present in EntryPoint library, because the AppDelegate references it when a scene is created. public func application(_ application: UIApplication, configurationForConnecting connectingSceneSession: UISceneSession, options: UIScene.ConnectionOptions) -&gt; UISceneConfiguration { // Set the SceneDelegate dynamically let sceneConfig: UISceneConfiguration = UISceneConfiguration(name: "mainWindow", sessionRole: connectingSceneSession.role) sceneConfig.delegateClass = SceneDelegate.self return sceneConfig } The intent is to move the SceneDelegate to the Presentation library. When moved, the EntryPoint library fails to compile because it's referencing the SceneDelegate (as shown above). To remove this reference, I tried to set up the SceneDelegate in the old way - In the info.plist file, mention a SceneConfiguration and set the SceneDelegate in Presentation. // In the Info.plist file &lt;key&gt;UIApplicationSceneManifest&lt;/key&gt; &lt;dict&gt; &lt;key&gt;UIApplicationSupportsMultipleScenes&lt;/key&gt; &lt;true/&gt; &lt;key&gt;UISceneConfigurations&lt;/key&gt; &lt;dict&gt; &lt;key&gt;UIWindowSceneSessionRoleApplication&lt;/key&gt; &lt;array&gt; &lt;dict&gt; &lt;key&gt;UISceneConfigurationName&lt;/key&gt; &lt;string&gt;Default Configuration&lt;/string&gt; &lt;key&gt;UISceneDelegateClassName&lt;/key&gt; &lt;string&gt;Presentation.SceneDelegate&lt;/string&gt; &lt;/dict&gt; &lt;/array&gt; &lt;/dict&gt; &lt;/dict&gt; // In the AppDelegate public func application(_ application: UIApplication, configurationForConnecting connectingSceneSession: UISceneSession, options: UIScene.ConnectionOptions) -&gt; UISceneConfiguration { // Refer to a static UISceneconfiguration listed in the info.plist file return UISceneConfiguration(name: "Default Configuration", sessionRole: connectingSceneSession.role) } As shown above, the Presentation.SceneDelegate is referred in the Info.plist file and the reference is removed from the AppDelegate (in EntryPoint library). The app target compiles, but when I run it, the SceneDelegate is not invoked. None of the methods from the SceneDelegate (scene(_:willConnectTo:options:), sceneDidDisconnect(_:), sceneDidEnterBackground(_:) etc.) are invoked. I only get the AppDelegate logs. It seems like the Configuration is ignored because it was incorrect. Any thoughts? Is it possible to move the SceneDelegate in this situation?

In iOS 18, I've observed unexpected behavior related to the UINavigationBar when transitioning between view controllers that have differing navigation bar visibility settings. Specifically, when returning from a modal presentation or a web view, the navigation bar reappears with an unexpected height (e.g., 103 points) and lacks content, displaying only an empty bar. Start with a UIViewController (e.g., HomeViewController) where the navigation bar is hidden using: override func viewWillAppear(_ animated: Bool) { super.viewWillAppear(animated) navigationController?.setNavigationBarHidden(true, animated: animated) } Present another UIViewController (e.g., a web view) modally. Dismiss the presented view controller. Observe that upon returning to HomeViewController, the navigation bar is visible with increased height and lacks expected content. Expected Behavior: The navigation bar should remain hidden upon returning to HomeViewController, maintaining the state it had prior to presenting the modal view controller. Actual Behavior: Upon dismissing the modal view controller, the navigation bar becomes visible with an unexpected height and lacks content, leading to a disrupted user interface. Additional Observations: This issue is specific to iOS 18; it does not occur in iOS 17 or earlier versions. The problem seems to stem from setting the navigation bar to be visible in the viewWillDisappear method, as shown below: override func viewWillDisappear(_ animated: Bool) { super.viewWillDisappear(animated) navigationController?.setNavigationBarHidden(false, animated: animated) } Removing or modifying this line mitigates the issue, suggesting a change in the view controller lifecycle behavior in iOS 18. Request for Clarification: Is this change in behavior intentional in iOS 18, or is it a regression? Understanding whether this is a new standard or a bug will help in implementing appropriate solutions. Workaround: As a temporary measure, I've adjusted the navigation bar visibility settings to avoid changing its state in viewWillDisappear, instead managing it in viewWillAppear or viewDidAppear. References: Similar issues have been discussed in the Apple Developer Forums: iPad OS 18 UINavigationBar display incorrectly

I am facing an issue in my CarPlay app using CPTabBarTemplate. The app has two tabs, and on launch, the first tab is correctly selected. However, when I tap on the first tab again, instead of staying active, it becomes inactive. This behavior is unexpected, as re-selecting the active tab should typically maintain its selected state. Has anyone else encountered this issue or found a workaround to prevent the tab from becoming inactive?

I'm trying to create a .pkg installer with productbuild/pkgbuild. But I'd also like to add my custom installer plugin to this. I'm using the following script. I'd like to add my bundle into this script. Since there are no official docs from apple how to do this nor there are a lot of updated resources, here are some things I have tried. adding the following line to Distrubtion.xml <bundle id="pluginid" path="path/to/myplugin.bundle"/> adding component tag to pkgbuild also doesn't do anything --component "path/to/myplugin.bundle" The bundle itself is build with XCode - it is a simple UI for user to type some input in Apple provides documentation for Distribution.xml file, which supports different UI elements but doesn't support text input - docs I have been also looking at this tutorial , it is very outdated but i could still fit it to my needs except the part where the .bundle file needs to be inserted into .pkg. Note - there is no option to view the contents of .pkg file build with pkbuild/productbuild How can i do this process correctly? I would like to link my installer pane plugin to a generic .pkg(with licenses and so on). I'd appreciate any kind of help!

Various TextField and TextView elements of Apple apps have text edit actions for text correction, but also auto completion. How can I create such a menu for a TextField in SwiftUI on macOS? the textCompletion modifier did not result in this menu. Many thanks in advance! Jan

I released an app for iPhone (and it's could be downloaded for iPad also), and now I developered another app for iPad version with the same code and logic but I modified the layout to fit bigger screen and make better user experience and appearance. Howevert the app review rejected my release due to the duplicate content, how can I solve it?
