Create a view over navigationView, SwiftUI - ios

I'm creating a view embedded in a ZStack, something like this:
ZStack(alignment: .top) {
content
if self.show {
VStack {
HStack {
This is a viewModifier so I call this in my main view with for example: .showView().
But what happened is that if I have a NavigationView, this view is only showing below the navigationView. (I have a navigationViewTitle that is over my view).
How can I solve this problem? I was thinking about some zIndex but it is not working. I thought also about some better placement of this .showView(), but nothing to do.

Here is a demo of possible approach (it can be added animations/transitions, but it is out of topic). Demo prepared & tested with Xcode 11.4 / iOS 13.4
struct ShowViewModifier<Cover: View>: ViewModifier {
let show: Bool
let cover: () -> Cover
func body(content: Content) -> some View {
ZStack(alignment: .top) {
content
if self.show {
cover()
}
}
}
}
struct DemoView: View {
#State private var isPresented = false
var body: some View {
NavigationView {
VStack {
NavigationLink("Link", destination: Button("Details")
{ self.isPresented.toggle() })
Text("Some content")
.navigationBarTitle("Demo")
Button("Toggle") { self.isPresented.toggle() }
}
}
.modifier(ShowViewModifier(show: isPresented) {
Rectangle().fill(Color.red)
.frame(height: 200)
})
}
}

How to show App Logo in All Navigation Bar in SwiftUI App

I have an app, which displays logo in the center of the NavigationBar in SwiftUI. The app is using NavigationStack in iOS 16. Here is the implementation.
struct DetailView: View {
var body: some View {
Text("Detail View")
}
}
struct ContentView: View {
var body: some View {
NavigationStack {
VStack {
NavigationLink("Detail", value: "Detail")
.toolbar {
ToolbarItem(placement: .principal) {
Image(systemName: "heart.fill")
.foregroundColor(.red)
}
}
}.navigationDestination(for: String.self) { stringValue in
DetailView()
}
}
}
}
This displays the heart logo in the center of the NavigationBar but as soon as I go to DetailView, the heart logo is gone. How can I make sure that the heart logo is available on app the navigation bars in the app.
UPDATE: I can solve this problem by creating a custom NavigationContainerView as shown below:
struct CustomNavigationView<Header: View, Content: View>: View {
let header: Header
let content: () -> Content
init(header: Header, content: #escaping () -> Content) {
self.header = header
self.content = content
}
var body: some View {
VStack {
Image(systemName: "heart.fill")
.foregroundColor(.red)
NavigationStack {
content()
.navigationDestination(for: String.self) { stringValue in
Text("Detail")
}
}
.toolbar {
ToolbarItem(placement: .principal) {
header
}
}
}
}
}
But this creates a small gap between the NavigationBar and the back button as shown below:
UPDATE: ZStack approach does not show the image at all.
struct CustomNavigationView<Content: View>: View {
let content: () -> Content
init(content: #escaping () -> Content) {
self.content = content
}
var body: some View {
ZStack(alignment: .top) {
Image(systemName: "heart.fill")
.foregroundColor(.red)
NavigationStack {
content()
.navigationDestination(for: String.self) { stringValue in
Text("Detail")
}
}
}
}
}
struct CustomNavigationView_Previews: PreviewProvider {
static var previews: some View {
NavigationView {
CustomNavigationView {
Text("DETAIL")
}
}
}
}
A possible approach is to use instead ZStack with top alignment, like
var body: some View {
ZStack(alignment: .top) { // << here !!
Image(systemName: "heart.fill")
.foregroundColor(.red).zIndex(1)
NavigationStack {
content()
.navigationDestination(for: String.self) { stringValue in
Text("Detail")
}
}

Overlay in front of SwiftUI tab view

I'm using SwiftUI's TabView and I want to add a custom bottomSheet() modifier which accepts a view and displays it like the standard sheet() modifier, but without occupying the entire screen.
Current Behaviour: I managed to create the custom modifier and show a sheet, but the sheet comes up behind the bottom tab bar (since it is displayed from within the NavigationView).
Expected Behavior: I'm looking for a way to cover the tab bar with the sheet in front.
Minimal Reproducible Example
Here's the custom modifier that I've created.
struct BottomSheet<SheetContent: View>: ViewModifier {
let sheetContent: SheetContent
#Binding var isPresented: Bool
init(isPresented: Binding<Bool>, #ViewBuilder content: () -> SheetContent) {
self.sheetContent = content()
_isPresented = isPresented
}
func body(content: Content) -> some View {
ZStack {
content
if isPresented {
ZStack {
Color.black.opacity(0.1)
VStack {
Spacer()
sheetContent
.padding()
.frame(maxWidth: .infinity)
.background(
Rectangle()
.foregroundColor(.white)
)
}
}
}
}
}
}
extension View {
func bottomSheet<SheetContent: View>(isPresented: Binding<Bool>, #ViewBuilder content: #escaping () -> SheetContent) -> some View {
self.modifier(BottomSheet(isPresented: isPresented, content: content))
}
}
Here's how I'm using it.
struct ScheduleTab: View {
#State private var showSheet = false
var body: some View {
NavigationView {
Button("Open Sheet") {
showSheet.toggle()
}
}
.navigationTitle("Today")
.navigationBarTitleDisplayMode(.inline)
.bottomSheet(isPresented: $showSheet) {
Text("Hello, World")
}
}
}

Presenting a modal view sheet from a Sub view

I am trying to present a sheet from a sub view selected from the menu item on the navigation bar but the modal Sheet does does not display. I spent a few days trying to debug but could not pin point the problem.
I am sorry, this is a little confusing and will show a simplified version of the code to reproduce. But in a nutshell, the problem seems to be a sheet view that I have as part of the main view. Removing the sheet code from the main view displays the sheet from the sub view. Unfortunately, I don't have the freedom to change the Mainview.swift
Let me show some code to make it easy to understand....
First, before showing the code, the steps to repeat the problem:
click on the circle with 3 dots in the navigation bar
select the second item (Subview)
click on the "Edit Parameters" button and the EditParameters() view will not display
ContentView.swift (just calls the Mainview()). Included code to copy for reproducing issue :-)
struct ContentView: View {
var body: some View {
NavigationView {
VStack {
Mainview()
}
}
}
}
Mainview.swift. This is a simplified version of the actual App which is quite complex and I don't have leeway to change much here unfortunately!
fileprivate enum CurrentView {
case summary, sub
}
enum OptionSheet: Identifiable {
var id: Self {self}
case add
}
struct Mainview: View {
#State private var currentView: CurrentView? = .summary
#State private var showSheet: OptionSheet? = nil
var body: some View {
GeometryReader { g in
content.frame(width: g.size.width, height: g.size.height)
.navigationBarTitle("Main", displayMode: .inline)
}
//Removing the below sheet view will display the sheet from the subview but with this sheet here, it the sheet from subview does not work. This is required as these action items are accessed from the second menu item (circle and arrow) navigation baritem
.sheet(item: $showSheet, content: { mode in
sheetContent(for: mode)
})
.toolbar {
HStack {
trailingBarItems
actionItems
}
}
}
var actionItems: some View {
Menu {
Button(action: {
showSheet = .add
}) {
Label("Add Elements", systemImage: "plus")
}
} label: {
Image(systemName: "cursorarrow.click").resizable()
}
}
var trailingBarItems: some View {
Menu {
Button(action: {currentView = .summary}) {
Label("Summary", systemImage: "list.bullet.rectangle")
}
Button(action: {currentView = .sub}) {
Label("Subview", systemImage: "circle")
}
} label: {
Image(systemName: "ellipsis.circle").resizable()
}
}
#ViewBuilder
func sheetContent(for mode: OptionSheet) -> some View {
switch mode {
case .add:
AddElements()
}
}
#ViewBuilder
var content: some View {
if let currentView = currentView {
switch currentView {
case .summary:
SummaryView()
case .sub:
SubView()
}
}
}
}
Subview.swift. This is the file that contains the button "Edit Parameters" which does not display the sheet. I am trying to display the sheet from this view.
struct SubView: View {
#State private var editParameters: Bool = false
var body: some View {
VStack {
Button(action: {
editParameters.toggle()
}, label: {
HStack {
Image(systemName: "square.and.pencil")
.font(.headline)
Text("Edit Parameters")
.fontWeight(.semibold)
.font(.headline)
}
})
.padding(10)
.foregroundColor(Color.white)
.background(Color(.systemBlue))
.cornerRadius(20)
.sheet(isPresented: $editParameters, content: {
EditParameterView()
})
.padding()
Text("Subview....")
}
.padding()
}
}
EditParameters.swift. This is the view it should display when the Edit Parameters button is pressed
struct EditParameterView: View {
var body: some View {
Text("Edit Parameters...")
}
}
Summaryview.swift. Nothing special here. just including for completeness
struct SummaryView: View {
var body: some View {
Text("Summary View")
}
}
In SwiftUI, you can't have 2 .sheet() modifiers on the same hierarchy. Here, the first .sheet() modifier is on one of the parent views to the second .sheet(). The easy solution is to move one of the .sheets() so it's own hierarchy.
You could either use ZStacks:
var body: some View {
ZStack {
GeometryReader { g in
content.frame(width: g.size.width, height: g.size.height)
.navigationBarTitle("Main", displayMode: .inline)
}
ZStack{ }
.sheet(item: $showSheet, content: { mode in
sheetContent(for: mode)
})
}
.toolbar {
HStack {
trailingBarItems
actionItems
}
}
}
or more elegantly:
var body: some View {
GeometryReader { g in
content.frame(width: g.size.width, height: g.size.height)
.navigationBarTitle("Main", displayMode: .inline)
}
.background(
ZStack{ }
.sheet(item: $showSheet, content: { mode in
sheetContent(for: mode)
})
)
.toolbar {
HStack {
trailingBarItems
actionItems
}
}
}

Why onAppear called again after onDisappear while switching tab in TabView in SwiftUI?

I am calling API when tab item is appeared if there is any changes. Why onAppear called after called onDisappear?
Here is the simple example :
struct ContentView: View {
var body: some View {
TabView {
NavigationView {
Text("Home")
.navigationTitle("Home")
.onAppear {
print("Home appeared")
}
.onDisappear {
print("Home disappeared")
}
}
.tabItem {
Image(systemName: "house")
Text("Home")
}.tag(0)
NavigationView {
Text("Account")
.navigationTitle("Account")
.onAppear {
print("Account appeared")
}
.onDisappear {
print("Account disappeared")
}
}
.tabItem {
Image(systemName: "gear")
Text("Account")
}.tag(1)
}
}
}
Just run above code and we will see onAppear after onDisappear.
Home appeared
---After switch tab to Account---
Home disappeared
Account appeared
Home appeared
Is there any solution to avoid this?
It's very annoying bug, imagine this scenario:
Home view onAppear method contains a timer which is fetching data repeatedly.
Timer is triggered invisibly by switching to the Account view.
Workaround:
Create a standalone view for every embedded NavigationView content
Pass the current selection value on to standalone view as #Binding parameter
E.g.:
struct ContentView: View {
#State var selected: MenuItem = .HOME
var body: some View {
return TabView(selection: $selected) {
HomeView(selectedMenuItem: $selected)
.navigationViewStyle(StackNavigationViewStyle())
.tabItem {
VStack {
Image(systemName: "house")
Text("Home")
}
}
.tag(MenuItem.HOME)
AccountView(selectedMenuItem: $selected)
.navigationViewStyle(StackNavigationViewStyle())
.tabItem {
VStack {
Image(systemName: "gear")
Text("Account")
}
}
.tag(MenuItem.ACCOUNT)
}
}
}
enum MenuItem: Int, Codable {
case HOME
case ACCOUNT
}
HomeView:
struct HomeView: View {
#Binding var selectedMenuItem: MenuItem
var body: some View {
return Text("Home")
.onAppear(perform: {
if MenuItem.HOME == selectedMenuItem {
print("-> HomeView")
}
})
}
}
AccountView:
struct AccountView: View {
#Binding var selectedMenuItem: MenuItem
var body: some View {
return Text("Account")
.onAppear(perform: {
if MenuItem.ACCOUNT == selectedMenuItem {
print("-> AccountView")
}
})
}
}
To whom it may help.
Because this behaviour I only could reproduce on iOS 14+, I end up using https://github.com/NicholasBellucci/StatefulTabView (which properly only get called when showed; but don't know if it's a bug or not, but it works with version 0.1.8) and TabView on iOS 13+.
I'm not sure why you are seeing that behaviour in your App. But I can explain why I was seeing it in my App.
I had a very similar setup to you and was seeing the same behaviour running an iOS13 App on iOS14 beta. In my Home screen I had a custom Tab Bar that would animate in and out when a detail screen was displayed. The code for triggering the hiding of the Tab Bar was done in the .onAppear of the Detail screen. This was triggering the Home screen to be redrawn and the .onAppear to be called. I removed the animation and found a much better set up due to this bug and the Home screen .onAppear stopped being called.
So if you have something in your Account Screen .onAppear that has a visual effect on the Home Screen then try commenting it out and seeing if it fixes the issue.
Good Luck.
I have been trying to understand this behavior for a number of days now. If you are working with a TabView, all of your onAppears() / onDisapear() will fire immediately on app init and never again. Which actually makes since I guess?
This was my solution to fix this:
import SwiftUI
enum TabItems {
case one, two
}
struct ContentView: View {
#State private var selection: TabItems = .one
var body: some View {
TabView(selection: $selection) {
ViewOne(isSelected: $selection)
.tabBarItem(tab: .one, selection: $selection)
ViewTwo(isSelected: $selection)
.tabBarItem(tab: .two, selection: $selection)
}
}
}
struct ViewOne: View {
#Binding var isSelected: TabItems
var body: some View {
Text("View One")
.onChange(of: isSelected) { _ in
if isSelected == .one {
// Do something
}
}
}
}
struct ViewTwo: View {
#Binding var isSelected: TabItems
var body: some View {
Text("View Two")
.onChange(of: isSelected) { _ in
if isSelected == .two {
// Do something
}
}
}
}
View Modifier for custom TabView
struct TabBarItemsPreferenceKey: PreferenceKey {
static var defaultValue: [TabBarItem] = []
static func reduce(value: inout [TabBarItem], nextValue: () -> [TabBarItem]) {
value += nextValue()
}
}
struct TabBarItemViewModifer: ViewModifier {
let tab: TabBarItem
#Binding var selection: TabBarItem
func body(content: Content) -> some View {
content
.opacity(selection == tab ? 1.0 : 0.0)
.preference(key: TabBarItemsPreferenceKey.self, value: [tab])
}
}
extension View {
func tabBarItem(tab: TabBarItem, selection: Binding<TabBarItem>) -> some View {
modifier(TabBarItemViewModifer(tab: tab, selection: selection))
}
}

iOS SwiftUI: pop or dismiss view programmatically

I couldn't find any reference about any ways to make a pop or a dismiss programmatically of my presented view with SwiftUI.
Seems to me that the only way is to use the already integrated slide dow action for the modal(and what/how if I want to disable this feature?), and the back button for the navigation stack.
Does anyone know a solution?
Do you know if this is a bug or it will stays like this?
This example uses the new environment var documented in the Beta 5 Release Notes, which was using a value property. It was changed in a later beta to use a wrappedValue property. This example is now current for the GM version. This exact same concept works to dismiss Modal views presented with the .sheet modifier.
import SwiftUI
struct DetailView: View {
#Environment(\.presentationMode) var presentationMode: Binding<PresentationMode>
var body: some View {
Button(
"Here is Detail View. Tap to go back.",
action: { self.presentationMode.wrappedValue.dismiss() }
)
}
}
struct RootView: View {
var body: some View {
VStack {
NavigationLink(destination: DetailView())
{ Text("I am Root. Tap for Detail View.") }
}
}
}
struct ContentView: View {
var body: some View {
NavigationView {
RootView()
}
}
}
SwiftUI Xcode Beta 5
First, declare the #Environment which has a dismiss method which you can use anywhere to dismiss the view.
import SwiftUI
struct GameView: View {
#Environment(\.presentationMode) var presentation
var body: some View {
Button("Done") {
self.presentation.wrappedValue.dismiss()
}
}
}
iOS 15+
Starting from iOS 15 we can use a new #Environment(\.dismiss):
struct SheetView: View {
#Environment(\.dismiss) var dismiss
var body: some View {
NavigationView {
Text("Sheet")
.toolbar {
Button("Done") {
dismiss()
}
}
}
}
}
(There's no more need to use presentationMode.wrappedValue.dismiss().)

DismissAction
There is now a way to programmatically pop in a NavigationView, if you would like. This is in beta 5. Notice that you don't need the back button. You could programmatically trigger the showSelf property in the DetailView any way you like. And you don't have to display the "Push" text in the master. That could be an EmptyView(), thereby creating an invisible segue.
import SwiftUI
struct ContentView: View {
var body: some View {
NavigationView {
MasterView()
}
}
}
struct MasterView: View {
#State private var showDetail = false
var body: some View {
VStack {
NavigationLink(destination: DetailView(showSelf: $showDetail), isActive: $showDetail) {
Text("Push")
}
}
}
}
struct DetailView: View {
#Binding var showSelf: Bool
var body: some View {
Button(action: {
self.showSelf = false
}) {
Text("Pop")
}
}
}
#if DEBUG
struct ContentView_Previews: PreviewProvider {
static var previews: some View {
ContentView()
}
}
#endif
I recently created an open source project called swiftui-navigation-stack (https://github.com/biobeats/swiftui-navigation-stack) that contains the NavigationStackView, an alternative navigation stack for SwiftUI. It offers several features described in the readme of the repo. For example, you can easily push and pop views programmatically. I'll show you how to do that with a simple example:
First of all embed your hierarchy in a NavigationStackVew:
struct RootView: View {
var body: some View {
NavigationStackView {
View1()
}
}
}
NavigationStackView gives your hierarchy access to a useful environment object called NavigationStack. You can use it to, for instance, pop views programmatically as asked in the question above:
struct View1: View {
var body: some View {
ZStack {
Color.yellow.edgesIgnoringSafeArea(.all)
VStack {
Text("VIEW 1")
Spacer()
PushView(destination: View2()) {
Text("PUSH TO VIEW 2")
}
}
}
}
}
struct View2: View {
#EnvironmentObject var navStack: NavigationStack
var body: some View {
ZStack {
Color.green.edgesIgnoringSafeArea(.all)
VStack {
Text("VIEW 2")
Spacer()
Button(action: {
self.navStack.pop()
}, label: {
Text("PROGRAMMATICALLY POP TO VIEW 1")
})
}
}
}
}
In this example I use the PushView to trigger the push navigation with a tap. Then, in the View2 I use the environment object to programmatically come back.
Here is the complete example:
import SwiftUI
import NavigationStack
struct RootView: View {
var body: some View {
NavigationStackView {
View1()
}
}
}
struct View1: View {
var body: some View {
ZStack {
Color.yellow.edgesIgnoringSafeArea(.all)
VStack {
Text("VIEW 1")
Spacer()
PushView(destination: View2()) {
Text("PUSH TO VIEW 2")
}
}
}
}
}
struct View2: View {
#EnvironmentObject var navStack: NavigationStack
var body: some View {
ZStack {
Color.green.edgesIgnoringSafeArea(.all)
VStack {
Text("VIEW 2")
Spacer()
Button(action: {
self.navStack.pop()
}, label: {
Text("PROGRAMMATICALLY POP TO VIEW 1")
})
}
}
}
}
struct ContentView_Previews: PreviewProvider {
static var previews: some View {
RootView()
}
}
the result is:
Alternatively, if you don't want to do it programatically from a button, you can emit from the view model whenever you need to pop.
Subscribe to a #Published that changes the value whenever the saving is done.
struct ContentView: View {
#ObservedObject var viewModel: ContentViewModel
#Environment(\.presentationMode) var presentationMode
init(viewModel: ContentViewModel) {
self.viewModel = viewModel
}
var body: some View {
Form {
TextField("Name", text: $viewModel.name)
.textContentType(.name)
}
.onAppear {
self.viewModel.cancellable = self.viewModel
.$saved
.sink(receiveValue: { saved in
guard saved else { return }
self.presentationMode.wrappedValue.dismiss()
}
)
}
}
}
class ContentViewModel: ObservableObject {
#Published var saved = false // This can store any value.
#Published var name = ""
var cancellable: AnyCancellable? // You can use a cancellable set if you have multiple observers.
func onSave() {
// Do the save.
// Emit the new value.
saved = true
}
}
Please check Following Code it's so simple.
FirstView
struct StartUpVC: View {
#State var selection: Int? = nil
var body: some View {
NavigationView{
NavigationLink(destination: LoginView().hiddenNavigationBarStyle(), tag: 1, selection: $selection) {
Button(action: {
print("Signup tapped")
self.selection = 1
}) {
HStack {
Spacer()
Text("Sign up")
Spacer()
}
}
}
}
}
SecondView
struct LoginView: View {
#Environment(\.presentationMode) var presentationMode
var body: some View {
NavigationView{
Button(action: {
print("Login tapped")
self.presentationMode.wrappedValue.dismiss()
}) {
HStack {
Image("Back")
.resizable()
.frame(width: 20, height: 20)
.padding(.leading, 20)
}
}
}
}
}
You can try using a custom view and a Transition.
Here's a custom modal.
struct ModalView<Content>: View where Content: View {
#Binding var isShowing: Bool
var content: () -> Content
var body: some View {
GeometryReader { geometry in
ZStack(alignment: .center) {
if (!self.isShowing) {
self.content()
}
if (self.isShowing) {
self.content()
.disabled(true)
.blur(radius: 3)
VStack {
Text("Modal")
}
.frame(width: geometry.size.width / 2,
height: geometry.size.height / 5)
.background(Color.secondary.colorInvert())
.foregroundColor(Color.primary)
.cornerRadius(20)
.transition(.moveAndFade) // associated transition to the modal view
}
}
}
}
}
I reused the Transition.moveAndFade from the Animation Views and Transition tutorial.
It is defined like this:
extension AnyTransition {
static var moveAndFade: AnyTransition {
let insertion = AnyTransition.move(edge: .trailing)
.combined(with: .opacity)
let removal = AnyTransition.scale()
.combined(with: .opacity)
return .asymmetric(insertion: insertion, removal: removal)
}
}
You can test it - in the simulator, not in the preview - like this:
struct ContentView: View {
#State var isShowingModal: Bool = false
func toggleModal() {
DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + 3) {
withAnimation {
self.isShowingModal = true
}
DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + 3) {
withAnimation {
self.isShowingModal = false
}
}
}
}
var body: some View {
ModalView(isShowing: $isShowingModal) {
NavigationView {
List(["1", "2", "3", "4", "5"].identified(by: \.self)) { row in
Text(row)
}.navigationBarTitle(Text("A List"), displayMode: .large)
}.onAppear { self.toggleModal() }
}
}
}
Thanks to that transition, you will see the modal sliding in from the trailing edge, and the it will zoom and fade out when it is dismissed.
The core concept of SwiftUI is to watch over the data flow.
You have to use a #State variable and mutate the value of this variable to control popping and dismissal.
struct MyView: View {
#State
var showsUp = false
var body: some View {
Button(action: { self.showsUp.toggle() }) {
Text("Pop")
}
.presentation(
showsUp ? Modal(
Button(action: { self.showsUp.toggle() }) {
Text("Dismiss")
}
) : nil
)
}
}
I experienced a compiler issue trying to call value on the presentationMode binding. Changing the property to wrappedValue fixed the issue for me. I'm assuming value -> wrappedValue is a language update. I think this note would be more appropriate as a comment on Chuck H's answer but don't have enough rep points to comment, I also suggested this change as and edit but my edit was rejected as being more appropriate as a comment or answer.
This will also dismiss the view
let scenes = UIApplication.shared.connectedScenes
let windowScene = scenes.first as? UIWindowScene
let window = windowScene?.windows.first
window?.rootViewController?.dismiss(animated: true, completion: {
print("dismissed")
})
