Bounce animation is working only after second tap [SwiftUI] - ios

I am triggering animation after unhiding the view unfortunately animation is not working unless I tap twice
struct ContentView: View {
#State var animate = false
#State var isViewHidden: Bool = true
var body: some View {
VStack {
ZStack {
Circle()
.fill(.blue).opacity(0.25).frame(width: 40, height: 40).offset(y: self.animate ? 0 : 60)
.hides(isViewHidden)
}
.animation((Animation.linear(duration: 1.5).repeatForever(autoreverses: true))
, value: self.animate ? 0 : 60)
Spacer()
Button("Tap here") {
self.isViewHidden = false
self.animate.toggle()
}
}
.padding()
}
}
extension View {
#ViewBuilder
func hides(_ isHidden: Bool) -> some View {
if isHidden {
hidden()
} else {
self
}
}
}

SwiftUI uses a before view and an after view to animate. You are introducing the view to animate at the same time you are updating self.animate, so Swift doesn't have a before view to use for the animation.
Change your View extension to this:
extension View {
#ViewBuilder
func hides(_ isHidden: Bool) -> some View {
self.opacity(isHidden ? 0 : 1)
}
}
This leaves the view onscreen at all times, but just hides it by making it invisible. That way, the view is there to animate from the start.

iOS 16 keyboard safe area not updated on push

There's a strange keyboard issue on iOS 16, when pushing new screens. It seems the keyboard safe area is not updated when you come back from the pushed screen.
It's even reproducible with this chunk of code on an empty project:
struct ContentView: View {
#State var text = ""
var body: some View {
NavigationView {
VStack {
Spacer()
NavigationLink {
Text("test")
} label: {
Text("Tap me")
}
TextField("", text: $text)
.textFieldStyle(.roundedBorder)
}
.padding()
}
}
}
Steps to reproduce:
Open the keyboard
Press the button "tap me" and navigate to the other screen
Quickly come back to the previous screen
The keyboard is dismissed, but there's a large gap that fits the keyboard size.
Anyone else had a similar issue?
I found 2 ways to solve this problem and both will need to hide the keyboard before you go to the next screen
Add hide keyboard to the button which activates navigation to another view
#State var isActive: Bool = false
var body: some View {
NavigationView {
ZStack {
NavigationLink(isActive: $isActive, destination: { Text("Hello") }, label: EmptyView.init)
VStack {
TextField("Text here", text: .constant(""))
Button("Press me") {
resignFirstResponder()
isActive.toggle()
}
}
}
}
}
Add hide keyboard to onChange block
#State var isActive: Bool = false
var body: some View {
NavigationView {
ZStack {
NavigationLink(isActive: $isActive, destination: { Text("Hello") }, label: EmptyView.init)
.onChange(of: isActive) { newValue in
if newValue {
resignFirstResponder()
}
}
VStack {
TextField("Text here", text: .constant(""))
Button("Press me") {
isActive.toggle()
}
}
}
}
}
Code for hide keyboard:
public func resignFirstResponder() {
UIApplication.shared.sendAction(
#selector(UIResponder.resignFirstResponder),
to: nil,
from: nil,
for: nil
)
}
I have found a temporary workaround, it's not pretty but it does the job of removing the empty space that was previously occupied by keyboard. The solution is to call parent view from child in onDisappear, then in parent have a hidden TextField that is focused and almost immediately unfocused.
In parent view add properties:
#State private var dummyText = ""
#FocusState private var dummyFocus: Bool
And put a TextField somewhere in the parent view, inside a ZStack for example:
ZStack {
TextField("", text: $dummyText)
.focused($dummyFocus)
.opacity(0.01)
... your other layout ...
}
then call/navigate to the child view with completion block like this:
ChildView(didDismiss: {
if #available(iOS 16.0, *) {
dummyFocus = true
DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + 0.1) {
dummyFocus = false
}
}
})
In child view add property:
var didDismiss: () -> Void
and call the completion block in child's onDisappear:
.onDisappear {
didDismiss()
}
onDisappear and didDismiss() will only be called after the whole interactive swipe back animation completes. The code checks for iOS 16 so that it doesn't unnecessarily execute on prior versions.
I have come to another fix based on Frin's solution. In my case, all our SwiftUI views are embedded into some parent UIViewController since we have an app that is partially migrated to SwiftUI. What I did is to have a small class (KeyboardLayoutGuideFix) that creates a dummy textfield to capture the focus and then observes the view controller lifecycle to do:
On view disappear: if iOS16, put focus on the dummy textfield
On view appear: remove the focus from dummy textfield
This way, the keyboard layout seems to work as expected, although the keyboard will be dismissed next time you come back to the screen (this is the expected behavior in our case).
Here is the code:
public class KeyboardLayoutGuideFix: Behavior {
private weak var viewController: UIViewController?
private lazy var dummyTextField: UITextField = {
UITextField(frame: .zero).apply { text in
viewController?.view.addSubview(text)
text.alpha = 0
}
}()
private var needsEndEditing = false
private var disposeBag = Set<AnyCancellable>()
private init(viewController: UIViewController, lifeCycle: ControllerLifeCycle) {
self.viewController = viewController
super.init(frame: .zero)
lifeCycle.$isPresented.sink { [weak self] presented in
guard let self else { return }
if presented {
if self.needsEndEditing {
self.needsEndEditing = false
DispatchQueue.main.async {
self.viewController?.view.endEditing(true)
}
}
} else {
self.dummyTextField.becomeFirstResponder()
self.needsEndEditing = true
}
}.store(in: &disposeBag)
}
required init?(coder: NSCoder) {
fatalError("init(coder:) has not been implemented")
}
public static func apply(viewController: PlaytomicViewController) {
apply(viewController: viewController, lifeCycle: viewController.lifecycle)
}
public static func apply(viewController: UIViewController, lifeCycle: ControllerLifeCycle) {
if #available(iOS 16, *) {
let fix = KeyboardLayoutGuideFix(viewController: viewController, lifeCycle: lifeCycle)
fix.owner = viewController
}
}
}
and then use it in the container VC like:
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
KeyboardLayoutGuideFix.apply(viewController: self)
}
Note that you will miss the following objects to make this work in your project, but you can adapt it to your own codebase:
Behavior: a class that allows you to assign dynamically other objects to a parent one, in this case it assigns the fix to the associated view controller, preventing the deallocation. You can remove it and use a local variable in your VC containing a reference to the fix
ControllerLifeCycle: A class that exposes a publisher to track the presentation state of the ViewController. You can replace it by explicit calls in viewWillAppear and viewWillDisappear
PlaytomicViewController: Base class that provides the lifecycle and updates the published property when appear/disappear

Center SwiftUI view in top-level view

I am creating a loading indicator in SwiftUI that should always be centered in the top-level view of the view hierarchy (i.e centered in the whole screen in a fullscreen app). This would be easy in UIKit, but SwiftUI centres views relative to their parent view only and I am not able to get the positions of the parent views of the parent view.
Sadly my app is not fully SwiftUI based, so I cannot easily set properties on my root views that I could then access in my loading view - I need this view to be centered regardless of what the view hierarchy looks like (mixed UIKit - SwiftUI parent views). This is why answers like SwiftUI set position to centre of different view don't work for my use case, since in that example, you need to modify the view in which you want to centre your child view.
I have tried playing around with the .offset and .position functions of View, however, I couldn't get the correct inputs to always dynamically centre my loadingView regardless of screen size or regardless of what part of the whole screen rootView takes up.
Please find a minimal reproducible example of the problem below:
/// Loading view that should always be centered in the whole screen on the XY axis and should be the top view in the Z axis
struct CenteredLoadingView<RootView: View>: View {
private let rootView: RootView
init(rootView: RootView) {
self.rootView = rootView
}
var body: some View {
ZStack {
rootView
loadingView
}
// Ensure that `AnimatedLoadingView` is displayed above all other views, whose `zIndex` would be higher than `rootView`'s by default
.zIndex(.infinity)
}
private var loadingView: some View {
VStack {
Color.white
.frame(width: 48, height: 72)
Text("Loading")
.foregroundColor(.white)
}
.frame(width: 142, height: 142)
.background(Color.primary.opacity(0.7))
.cornerRadius(10)
}
}
View above which the loading view should be displayed:
struct CenterView: View {
var body: some View {
return VStack {
Color.gray
HStack {
CenteredLoadingView(rootView: list)
otherList
}
}
}
var list: some View {
List {
ForEach(1..<6) {
Text($0.description)
}
}
}
var otherList: some View {
List {
ForEach(6..<11) {
Text($0.description)
}
}
}
}
This is what the result looks like:
This is how the UI should look like:
I have tried modifying the body of CenteredLoadingView using a GeometryReader and .frame(in: .global) to get the global screen size, but what I've achieved is that now my loadingView is not visible at all.
var body: some View {
GeometryReader<AnyView> { geo in
let screen = geo.frame(in: .global)
let stack = ZStack {
self.rootView
self.loadingView
.position(x: screen.midX, y: screen.midY)
// Offset doesn't work either
//.offset(x: -screen.origin.x, y: -screen.origin.y)
}
// Ensure that `AnimatedLoadingView` is displayed above all other views, whose `zIndex` would be higher than `rootView`'s by default
.zIndex(.infinity)
return AnyView(stack)
}
}
Here is a demo of possible approach. The idea is to use injected UIView to access UIWindow and then show loading view as a top view of window's root viewcontroller view.
Tested with Xcode 12 / iOS 14 (but SwiftUI 1.0 compatible)
Note: animations, effects, etc. are possible but are out scope for simplicity
struct CenteredLoadingView<RootView: View>: View {
private let rootView: RootView
#Binding var isActive: Bool
init(rootView: RootView, isActive: Binding<Bool>) {
self.rootView = rootView
self._isActive = isActive
}
var body: some View {
rootView
.background(Activator(showLoading: $isActive))
}
struct Activator: UIViewRepresentable {
#Binding var showLoading: Bool
#State private var myWindow: UIWindow? = nil
func makeUIView(context: Context) -> UIView {
let view = UIView()
DispatchQueue.main.async {
self.myWindow = view.window
}
return view
}
func updateUIView(_ uiView: UIView, context: Context) {
guard let holder = myWindow?.rootViewController?.view else { return }
if showLoading && context.coordinator.controller == nil {
context.coordinator.controller = UIHostingController(rootView: loadingView)
let view = context.coordinator.controller!.view
view?.backgroundColor = UIColor.black.withAlphaComponent(0.8)
view?.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
holder.addSubview(view!)
holder.isUserInteractionEnabled = false
view?.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: holder.leadingAnchor).isActive = true
view?.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: holder.trailingAnchor).isActive = true
view?.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: holder.topAnchor).isActive = true
view?.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: holder.bottomAnchor).isActive = true
} else if !showLoading {
context.coordinator.controller?.view.removeFromSuperview()
context.coordinator.controller = nil
holder.isUserInteractionEnabled = true
}
}
func makeCoordinator() -> Coordinator {
Coordinator()
}
class Coordinator {
var controller: UIViewController? = nil
}
private var loadingView: some View {
VStack {
Color.white
.frame(width: 48, height: 72)
Text("Loading")
.foregroundColor(.white)
}
.frame(width: 142, height: 142)
.background(Color.primary.opacity(0.7))
.cornerRadius(10)
}
}
}
struct CenterView: View {
#State private var isLoading = false
var body: some View {
return VStack {
Color.gray
HStack {
CenteredLoadingView(rootView: list, isActive: $isLoading)
otherList
}
Button("Demo", action: load)
}
.onAppear(perform: load)
}
func load() {
self.isLoading = true
DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + 2) {
self.isLoading = false
}
}
var list: some View {
List {
ForEach(1..<6) {
Text($0.description)
}
}
}
var otherList: some View {
List {
ForEach(6..<11) {
Text($0.description)
}
}
}
}

Child subviews not resetting when a new parent is created in SwiftUI

I made a post about this yesterday and apologize for it not being clear or descriptive enough. Today I've made some more progress on the problem but still haven't found a solution.
In my program I have a main view called GameView(), a view called KeyboardView() and a view called ButtonView().
A ButtonView() is a simple button that displays a letter and when pressed tells the keyboardView it belongs to what letter it represents. When it's pressed it is also toggled off so that it cannot be pressed again. Here is the code.
struct ButtonView: View {
let impactFeedbackgenerator = UIImpactFeedbackGenerator(style: .medium)
var letter:String
var function:() -> Void
#State var pressed = false
var body: some View {
ZStack{
Button(action: {
if !self.pressed {
self.pressed = true
self.impactFeedbackgenerator.prepare()
self.impactFeedbackgenerator.impactOccurred()
self.function()
}
}, label: {
if pressed{
Text(letter)
.font(Font.custom("ComicNeue-Bold", size: 30))
.foregroundColor(.white)
.opacity(0.23)
} else if !pressed{
Text(letter)
.font(Font.custom("ComicNeue-Bold", size: 30))
.foregroundColor(.white)
}
})
}.padding(5)
}
}
A keyboard view is a collection of ButtonViews(), one for each button on the keyboard. It tells the GameView what button has been pressed if a button is pressed.
struct KeyboardView: View {
#Environment(\.parentFunction) var parentFunction
var topRow = ["Q","W","E","R","T","Y","U","I","O","P"]
var midRow = ["A","S","D","F","G","H","J","K","L"]
var botRow = ["Z","X","C","V","B","N","M"]
var body: some View {
VStack{
HStack(){
ForEach(0..<topRow.count, id: \.self){i in
ButtonView(letter: self.topRow[i], function: {self.makeGuess(self.topRow[i])})
}
}
HStack(){
ForEach(0..<midRow.count, id: \.self){i in
ButtonView(letter: self.midRow[i], function: {self.makeGuess(self.midRow[i])})
}
}
HStack(){
ForEach(0..<botRow.count, id: \.self){i in
ButtonView(letter: self.botRow[i], function: {self.makeGuess(self.botRow[i])})
}
}
}
}
func makeGuess(_ letter:String){
print("Keyboard: Guessed \(letter)")
self.parentFunction?(letter)
}
}
Finally a GameView() is where the keyboard belongs. It displays the keyboard along with the rest of the supposed game.
struct GameView: View {
#Environment(\.presentationMode) var presentation
#State var guessedLetters = [String]()
#State var myKeyboard:KeyboardView = KeyboardView()
var body: some View {
ZStack(){
Image("Background")
.resizable()
.edgesIgnoringSafeArea(.all)
.opacity(0.05)
VStack{
Button("New Game") {
self.newGame()
}.font(Font.custom("ComicNeue-Bold", size: 20))
.foregroundColor(.white)
.padding()
self.myKeyboard
.padding(.bottom, 20)
}
}.navigationBarTitle("")
.navigationBarBackButtonHidden(true)
.navigationBarHidden(true)
.environment(\.parentFunction, parentFunction)
}
func makeGuess(_ letter:String){
self.guessedLetters.append(letter)
}
func newGame(){
print("Started a new game.")
self.guessedLetters.removeAll()
self.myKeyboard = KeyboardView()
}
func parentFunction(_ letter:String) {
makeGuess(letter)
}
}
struct ParentFunctionKey: EnvironmentKey {
static let defaultValue: ((_ letter:String) -> Void)? = nil
}
extension EnvironmentValues {
var parentFunction: ((_ letter:String) -> Void)? {
get { self[ParentFunctionKey.self] }
set { self[ParentFunctionKey.self] = newValue }
}
}
The issue is that when I start a new game, the array is reset but not keyboardView(), the buttons that have been toggled off remain off, but since it's being replaced by a new keyboardView() shouldn't they go back to being toggled on?
I'll repeat what I said in an answer to your previous question - under most normal use cases you shouldn't instantiate views as variables, so if you find yourself doing that, you might be on the wrong track.
Whenever there's any state change, SwiftUI recomputes the body and reconstructs the view tree, and matches the child view states to the new tree.
When it detects that something has changed, it realizes that the new child view is truly new, so it resets its state, fires .onAppear and so forth. But when there's no change that it can detect, then it just keeps the same state for all the descendent views.
That's what you're observing.
Specifically, in your situation nothing structurally has changed - i.e. it's still:
GameView
--> KeyboardView
--> ButtonView
ButtonView
ButtonView
...
so, it keeps the state of ButtonViews as is.
You can signal to SwiftUI that the view has actually changed and that it should be updated by using an .id modifier (documentation isn't great, but you can find more info in blogs), where you need to supply any Hashable variable to it that's different than the current one, in order to reset it.
I'll use a new Bool variable as an example:
struct GameView {
#State var id: Bool = false // initial value doesn't matter
var body: some View {
VStack() {
KeyboardView()
.id(id) // use the id here
Button("new game") {
self.id.toggle() // changes the id
}
}
}
}
Every time the id changes, SwiftUI resets the state, so all the child views', like ButtonViews', states are reset.

How to check if a view is displayed on the screen? (Swift 5 and SwiftUI)

I have a view like below. I want to find out if it is the view which is displayed on the screen. Is there a function to achieve this?
struct TestView: View {
var body: some View {
Text("Test View")
}
}
You could use onAppear on any kind of view that conforms to View protocol.
struct TestView: View {
#State var isViewDisplayed = false
var body: some View {
Text("Test View")
.onAppear {
self.isViewDisplayed = true
}
.onDisappear {
self.isViewDisplayed = false
}
}
func someFunction() {
if isViewDisplayed {
print("View is displayed.")
} else {
print("View is not displayed.")
}
}
}
PS: Although this solution covers most cases, it has many edge cases that has not been covered. I'll be updating this answer when Apple releases a better solution for this requirement.
You can check the position of view in global scope using GeometryReader and GeometryProxy.
struct CustomButton: View {
var body: some View {
GeometryReader { geometry in
VStack {
Button(action: {
}) {
Text("Custom Button")
.font(.body)
.fontWeight(.bold)
.foregroundColor(Color.white)
}
.background(Color.blue)
}.navigationBarItems(trailing: self.isButtonHidden(geometry) ?
HStack {
Button(action: {
}) {
Text("Custom Button")
} : nil)
}
}
private func isButtonHidden(_ geometry: GeometryProxy) -> Bool {
// Alternatively, you can also check for geometry.frame(in:.global).origin.y if you know the button height.
if geometry.frame(in: .global).maxY <= 0 {
return true
}
return false
}
As mentioned by Oleg, depending on your use case, a possible issue with onAppear is its action will be performed as soon as the View is in a view hierarchy, regardless of whether the view is potentially visible to the user.
My use case is wanting to lazy load content when a view actually becomes visible. I didn't want to rely on the view being encapsulated in a LazyHStack or similar.
To achieve this I've added an extension onBecomingVisible to View that has the same kind of API as onAppear, but will only call the action when the view intersects the screen's visible bounds.
public extension View {
func onBecomingVisible(perform action: #escaping () -> Void) -> some View {
modifier(BecomingVisible(action: action))
}
}
private struct BecomingVisible: ViewModifier {
#State var action: (() -> Void)?
func body(content: Content) -> some View {
content.overlay {
GeometryReader { proxy in
Color.clear
.preference(
key: VisibleKey.self,
// See discussion!
value: UIScreen.main.bounds.intersects(proxy.frame(in: .global))
)
.onPreferenceChange(VisibleKey.self) { isVisible in
guard isVisible else { return }
action?()
action = nil
}
}
}
}
struct VisibleKey: PreferenceKey {
static var defaultValue: Bool = false
static func reduce(value: inout Bool, nextValue: () -> Bool) { }
}
}
Discussion
I'm not thrilled by using UIScreen.main.bounds in the code! Perhaps a geometry proxy could be used for this instead, or some #Environment value – I've not thought about this yet though.

SwiftUI - dismissing keyboard on tapping anywhere in the view - issues with other interactive elements

I have a TextField and some actionable elements like Button, Picker inside a view. I want to dismiss the keyboard when the use taps outside the TextField. Using the answers in this question, I achieved it. However the problem comes with other actionable items.
When I tap a Button, the action takes place but the keyboard is not dismissed. Same with a Toggle switch.
When I tap on one section of a SegmentedStyle Picker, the keyboard is dimissed but the picker selection doesn't change.
Here is my code.
struct SampleView: View {
#State var selected = 0
#State var textFieldValue = ""
var body: some View {
VStack(spacing: 16) {
TextField("Enter your name", text: $textFieldValue)
.padding(EdgeInsets(top: 8, leading: 16, bottom: 8, trailing: 16))
.background(Color(UIColor.secondarySystemFill))
.cornerRadius(4)
Picker(selection: $selected, label: Text(""), content: {
Text("Word").tag(0)
Text("Phrase").tag(1)
Text("Sentence").tag(2)
}).pickerStyle(SegmentedPickerStyle())
Button(action: {
self.textFieldValue = "button tapped"
}, label: {
Text("Tap to change text")
})
}.padding()
.onTapGesture(perform: UIApplication.dismissKeyboard)
// .gesture(TapGesture().onEnded { _ in UIApplication.dismissKeyboard()})
}
}
public extension UIApplication {
static func dismissKeyboard() {
let keyWindow = shared.connectedScenes
.filter({$0.activationState == .foregroundActive})
.map({$0 as? UIWindowScene})
.compactMap({$0})
.first?.windows
.filter({$0.isKeyWindow}).first
keyWindow?.endEditing(true)
}
}
As you can see in the code, I tried both options to get the tap gesture and nothing worked.
You can create an extension on View like so
extension View {
func endTextEditing() {
UIApplication.shared.sendAction(#selector(UIResponder.resignFirstResponder),
to: nil, from: nil, for: nil)
}
}
and use it for the Views you want to dismiss the keyboard.
.onTapGesture {
self.endTextEditing()
}
I have just seen this solution in a recent raywenderlich tutorial so I assume it's currently the best solution.
Dismiss the keyboard by tapping anywhere (like others suggested) could lead to very hard to find bug (or unwanted behavior).
you loose default build-in TextField behaviors, like partial text
selection, copy, share etc.
onCommit is not called
I suggest you to think about gesture masking based on the editing state of your fields
/// Attaches `gesture` to `self` such that it has lower precedence
/// than gestures defined by `self`.
public func gesture<T>(_ gesture: T, including mask: GestureMask = .all) -> some View where T : Gesture
this help us to write
.gesture(TapGesture().onEnded({
UIApplication.shared.windows.first{$0.isKeyWindow }?.endEditing(true)
}), including: (editingFlag) ? .all : .none)
Tap on the modified View will dismiss the keyboard, but only if editingFlag == true. Don't apply it on TextField! Otherwise we are on the beginning of the story again :-)
This modifier will help us to solve the trouble with Picker but not with the Button. That is easy to solve while dismiss the keyboard from its own action handler. We don't have any other controls, so we almost done
Finally we have to find the solution for rest of the View, so tap anywhere (excluding our TextFields) dismiss the keyboard. Using ZStack filled with some transparent View is probably the easiest solution.
Let see all this in action (copy - paste - run in your Xcode simulator)
import SwiftUI
struct ContentView: View {
#State var selected = 0
#State var textFieldValue0 = ""
#State var textFieldValue1 = ""
#State var editingFlag = false
#State var message = ""
var body: some View {
ZStack {
// TODO: make it Color.clear istead yellow
Color.yellow.opacity(0.1).onTapGesture {
UIApplication.shared.windows.first{$0.isKeyWindow }?.endEditing(true)
}
VStack {
TextField("Salutation", text: $textFieldValue0, onEditingChanged: { editing in
self.editingFlag = editing
}, onCommit: {
self.onCommit(txt: "salutation commit")
})
.padding()
.background(Color(UIColor.secondarySystemFill))
.cornerRadius(4)
TextField("Welcome message", text: $textFieldValue1, onEditingChanged: { editing in
self.editingFlag = editing
}, onCommit: {
self.onCommit(txt: "message commit")
})
.padding()
.background(Color(UIColor.secondarySystemFill))
.cornerRadius(4)
Picker(selection: $selected, label: Text(""), content: {
Text("Word").tag(0)
Text("Phrase").tag(1)
Text("Sentence").tag(2)
})
.pickerStyle(SegmentedPickerStyle())
.gesture(TapGesture().onEnded({
UIApplication.shared.windows.first{$0.isKeyWindow }?.endEditing(true)
}), including: (editingFlag) ? .all : .none)
Button(action: {
self.textFieldValue0 = "Hi"
print("button pressed")
UIApplication.shared.windows.first{$0.isKeyWindow }?.endEditing(true)
}, label: {
Text("Tap to change salutation")
.padding()
.background(Color.yellow)
.cornerRadius(10)
})
Text(textFieldValue0)
Text(textFieldValue1)
Text(message).font(.largeTitle).foregroundColor(Color.red)
}
}
}
func onCommit(txt: String) {
print(txt)
self.message = [self.textFieldValue0, self.textFieldValue1].joined(separator: ", ").appending("!")
}
}
struct ContentView_Previews: PreviewProvider {
static var previews: some View {
ContentView()
}
}
If you miss onCommit (it is not called while tap outside TextField), just add it to your TextField onEditingChanged (it mimics typing Return on keyboard)
TextField("Salutation", text: $textFieldValue0, onEditingChanged: { editing in
self.editingFlag = editing
if !editing {
self.onCommit(txt: "salutation")
}
}, onCommit: {
self.onCommit(txt: "salutation commit")
})
.padding()
.background(Color(UIColor.secondarySystemFill))
.cornerRadius(4)
I'd like to take Mark T.s Answer even further and add the entire function to an extension for View:
extension View {
func hideKeyboardWhenTappedAround() -> some View {
return self.onTapGesture {
UIApplication.shared.sendAction(#selector(UIResponder.resignFirstResponder),
to: nil, from: nil, for: nil)
}
}
}
Can then be called like:
var body: some View {
MyView()
// ...
.hideKeyboardWhenTappedAround()
// ...
}
#user3441734 is smart to enable the dismiss gesture only when needed. Rather than forcing every crevice of your forms to track state, you can:
Monitor UIWindow.keyboardWillShowNotification / willHide
Pass the current keyboard state via an EnvironmentKey set at the/a root view
Tested for iOS 14.5.
Attach dismiss gesture to the form
Form { }
.dismissKeyboardOnTap()
Setup monitor in root view
// Root view

SwiftUI Gesture + Sugar
struct HideKeyboardGestureModifier: ViewModifier {
#Environment(\.keyboardIsShown) var keyboardIsShown
func body(content: Content) -> some View {
content
.gesture(TapGesture().onEnded {
UIApplication.shared.resignCurrentResponder()
}, including: keyboardIsShown ? .all : .none)
}
}
extension UIApplication {
func resignCurrentResponder() {
sendAction(#selector(UIResponder.resignFirstResponder),
to: nil, from: nil, for: nil)
}
}
extension View {
/// Assigns a tap gesture that dismisses the first responder only when the keyboard is visible to the KeyboardIsShown EnvironmentKey
func dismissKeyboardOnTap() -> some View {
modifier(HideKeyboardGestureModifier())
}
/// Shortcut to close in a function call
func resignCurrentResponder() {
UIApplication.shared.resignCurrentResponder()
}
}
EnvironmentKey
extension EnvironmentValues {
var keyboardIsShown: Bool {
get { return self[KeyboardIsShownEVK] }
set { self[KeyboardIsShownEVK] = newValue }
}
}
private struct KeyboardIsShownEVK: EnvironmentKey {
static let defaultValue: Bool = false
}
You can set .allowsHitTesting(false) to your Picker to ignore the tap on your VStack
Apply this to root view
