Overview I have the following view hierarchy that mixes SwiftUI and UIKit: AccordionView └─ VStack ├─ Text ├─ Button └─ UIViewRepresentable └─ UIStackView ├─ UILabel └─ UILabel When tapping the button, the UIViewRepresentable hides and shows its content. This all works as expected. However, in certain circumstances the view's sizing is rendered with the correct size, but the text can often render incorrectly, despite the frame seemingly looking as though it has enough room to render the text. More info Below you can see the UILabel has the correct frame height (the light grey background and coloured borders) but the text is rendered as though it has infinite width along one line. There's a few configurations of my view hierarchy that seem to have this effect. I've added a playground to the bottom of this post of various configurations to show what does and doesn't work, just copy and paste to see for yourself... It seems of the ones that don't work, there's a couple of reasons why that may be: HostedView and TextViewContainer do not do the following (I think we only need to do one of these things for auto layout/stack views to work effectively): a) implement an intrinsic content size b) return a 'good' size for systemLayoutSizeFitting(). UIHostingController shouldn't use intrinsic size (although I'm sure it should) Something related to setting setContentCompressionResistancePriority() or setContentHuggingPriority() but having played about with this it doesn't seem relevant here... I've played around with everything I can think of here but can't find a solution that works for all, although I'm 99% sure it's one or all of the points above. If there are any UIKit gurus out there that can help that would be great! Ive already spent so much time on this 🫨 Playground Swift Playground

[Submitted as FB21958289] A minimal SwiftUI app logs framework warnings when a bottom bar Menu is used with the system search toolbar item. The most severe issue is logged as a console Fault (full logs below): Adding 'UIKitToolbar' as a subview of UIHostingController.view is not supported and may result in a broken view hierarchy. Add your view above UIHostingController.view in a common superview or insert it into your SwiftUI content in a UIViewRepresentable instead. This appears to be a framework-level SwiftUI/UIKit integration issue, not custom UIKit embedding in app code. The UI may still render, but the warnings indicate an internal hierarchy/layout conflict. This occurs in simulator and physical device. REPRO STEPS Create a new project then replace ContentView with the code below. Run the app. The view uses NavigationStack + .searchable + .toolbar with: ToolbarItem(placement: .bottomBar) containing a Menu DefaultToolbarItem(kind: .search, placement: .bottomBar) EXPECTED RESULT No view hierarchy or Auto Layout warnings in the console. ACTUAL RESULT Console logs warnings such as: "Adding 'UIKitToolbar' as a subview of UIHostingController.view is not supported..."

MacOS: Tahoe 26.3 Xcode: 26.3 RC1 Feedback: FB21937309 I have an app that is using nested NavigationSplitViews that was looking correct under Sequoia/Xcode 26.1 When I navigate down to the child element, the NavigationStack view has some odd leading space on it. Collapsing via the menu button properly sets the spacing to "0" as expected. My searches came up empty. Fixes were either partially correct, or just plain didn't work.

In an NSTableView (Appkit), I need to colour a cell background when it is selected. That works OK, except that the colour does not span the full cell width, nor even the text itself: The tableView structure is very basic: I see there is a TextCell at the end that cannot be deleted. What is this ? And the colouring as well: func tableView(_ tableView: NSTableView, viewFor tableColumn: NSTableColumn?, row: Int) -> NSView? { let p = someDataSource[row] if let cellView = tableView.makeView(withIdentifier: NSUserInterfaceItemIdentifier(rawValue: "Cell"), owner: self) { (cellView as! NSTableCellView).textField?.stringValue = p if selected[row] { (cellView as! NSTableCellView).backgroundColor = theLightBlueColor } else { (cellView as! NSTableCellView).backgroundColor = .clear } return cellView } } I've tried to change size constraints in many ways, to no avail. For instance, I changed Layout to Autoresising : I tried to change TableCellView size to 170 vs 144: Or increase tableColum Width. I have looked at what other object in the NSTableView hierarchy should be coloured without success. Nothing works. What am I missing ?

Hello, I would like to report a potential Dynamic Type rendering issue observed in Control Center. After increasing the system text size to 100%, the label “My Card” appears visually constrained and partially clipped instead of scaling proportionally according to Dynamic Type guidelines. Steps to reproduce: Open Settings Increase Text Size to 100% Open Control Center Observe the “My Card” label Expected behavior: The label should scale proportionally using preferred text styles and remain fully visible without truncation. Observed behavior: The label appears constrained, suggesting possible fixed height constraints or insufficient layout flexibility. Technical hypothesis: This may be caused by: Fixed height constraints on the text container Non-preferred font usage instead of dynamic text styles Missing adjustsFontForContentSizeCategory configuration Incomplete layout testing across content size categories Given Apple’s emphasis on accessibility and Dynamic Type compliance, I believe this may be worth reviewing in a future update. Has anyone else observed similar behavior?

Since iOS 26, navigationController?.toolbar no longer appears in the view hierarchy, and UIToolbar itself is not visible in the view tree. Is there currently any supported way to access the toolbar’s container view or its underlying view hierarchy? However, the API itself is not deprecated. https://aninterestingwebsite.com/documentation/uikit/uinavigationcontroller/toolbar

Memory leak in CarPlay when using CPListImageRowItem. The following behavior was observed in the CPListTemplate class when using CPListImageRowItem: If a CPListImageRowItem cell is inserted into the screen, the screen starts to leak, even if it contains no elements (CPListImageRowItem(titleList: nil, imagesRow: [], titlesRow: []). Replacing CPListImageRowItem with CPListItem stops the leak. Using the new initializer for iOS 26 does not correct the issue; the screen still leaks.

I am observing inconsistent pointer hover behavior for a SwiftUI Menu placed inside a ToolbarItem on iPadOS 26.2 (real device). Scenario: • Screen A is pushed inside a NavigationStack. • Screen B is presented as a sheet (with its own NavigationStack). • Both screens contain the same toolbar Menu item using an SF Symbol (arrow.up.arrow.down). Observed behavior: In the pushed view, hover is mostly stable. In the sheet-presented view, the SF Symbol visibly shifts/jumps when pointer hover activates. The hover highlight shape differs from the native navigation back button. Label-level hoverEffect modifiers do not stabilize the behavior. Minimal example: import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { @State private var showSheet = false var body: some View { NavigationStack { VStack { Button("Open Sheet") { showSheet = true } } .navigationTitle("Home") .toolbar { ToolbarItem(placement: .topBarTrailing) { Menu { Button("Option A") { } Button("Option B") { } } label: { Image(systemName: "arrow.up.arrow.down") } } } .sheet(isPresented: $showSheet) { SheetView() } } } } struct SheetView: View { var body: some View { NavigationStack { Text("Sheet View") .navigationTitle("Sheet") .toolbar { ToolbarItem(placement: .topBarTrailing) { Menu { Button("Option A") { } Button("Option B") { } } label: { Image(systemName: "arrow.up.arrow.down") } } } } } } This behavior is reproducible 100% on device. Is this expected behavior for Menu inside ToolbarItem when presented as a sheet, or a regression in pointer interaction rendering?

I am reporting a regression/behavioral change in the SwiftUI layout engine when building with Xcode 26 (iOS 26 SDK). In previous versions (Xcode 15/16 and iOS 17/18 SDKs), a TabView using .tabViewStyle(.page(indexDisplayMode: .never)) correctly respected the coordinate space when combined with .edgesIgnoringSafeArea(.vertical). However, when compiling with the iOS 26 SDK, the internal views of the TabView render "out of bounds," pushing content vertically beyond the intended safe area boundaries and causing UI overlapping/clipping - an abnormal behavior. TabView(selection: $selectedIndex) { ForEach(0..<data.count, id: \.self) { index in nextPreviousHandlerView(id: data[index]) .tag(index) } } .tabViewStyle(.page(indexDisplayMode: .never)) .edgesIgnoringSafeArea(.vertical) // Causes vertical "jump" out of bounds in Xcode 26

TabView inside NavigationStack is abnormal when using Xcode 26. The y deviation is about 14. But it is right when using Xcode 16.4. It is also right without NavigationStack. import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { private enum Tab: Hashable, CaseIterable { case a case b } @State private var currentTab: Tab = .a @State private var path: NavigationPath = NavigationPath() var body: some View { NavigationStack(path: $path) { TabView(selection: $currentTab) { ForEach(Tab.allCases, id: \.self) { tab in switch tab { case .a: Color.blue // .offset(y: -14) case .b: Color.yellow } } } .tabViewStyle(.page(indexDisplayMode: .never)) .ignoresSafeArea(.all) } } }

I get warnings like this on each project I build while debugging.. Internal inconsistency in menus - menu <NSMenu: 0x8b4b49ec0> Title: Help Supermenu: 0x8b4b49f80 (Main Menu), autoenable: YES Previous menu: 0x0 (None) Next menu: 0x0 (None) Items: ( "<NSMenuItem: 0x8b5771720 Metal4C Help, ke='Command-?'>" ) believes it has <NSMenu: 0x8b4b49f80> Title: Main Menu Supermenu: 0x0 (None), autoenable: YES Previous menu: 0x0 (None) Next menu: 0x0 (None) Items: ( ) as a supermenu, but the supermenu does not seem to have any item with that submenu What am I doing wrong? I get these errors even if I create a default app with no code?

Hello every developers. I need your help. Do you know how to attach animation to appearance, like a smooth transition from dark to light and vise versa. My code here: @main struct The_Library_of_BabelonApp: App { @AppStorage("selectedAppearance") private var selectedAppearance = 0 @StateObject private var router = AppRouter() var scheme: ColorScheme? { if selectedAppearance == 1 { return .light } if selectedAppearance == 2 { return .dark } return nil } var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { RootView() .preferredColorScheme(scheme) .environmentObject(router) // this is doesn't work correctly .animation(.smooth(duration: 2), value: selectedAppearance) } } } And my appearance switching looks: struct SettingsView: View { @AppStorage("selectedAppearance") private var selectedAppearance = 0 var body: some View { List { Section(header: Text("Appearance")) { HStack(spacing: 20) { ThemePreview(title: "Light", imageName: "lightTheme", tag: 1, selection: $selectedAppearance) ThemePreview(title: "Dark", imageName: "darkTheme", tag: 2, selection: $selectedAppearance) ThemePreview(title: "System", imageName: "systemMode", tag: 0, selection: $selectedAppearance) } .padding(.vertical, 10) .frame(maxWidth: .infinity) } } } } struct ThemePreview: View { let title: String let imageName: String let tag: Int @Binding var selection: Int var body: some View { Button { selection = tag } label: { VStack { Image(imageName) .resizable() .aspectRatio(contentMode: .fill) .frame(width: 120, height: 80) .clipShape(RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 12)) .overlay( RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 12) .stroke(selection == tag ? Color.blue : Color.clear, lineWidth: 3) ) Text(title) .font(.caption) .foregroundColor(selection == tag ? .blue : .primary) } } .buttonStyle(.plain) } } I guess my code works but animation working another way, its turn my Section, I don't know.... Thank you in advance

I need help designing the image of a ControlWidgetToggle. do I understand correctly that I can only use an SFSymbol as image and not my custom image (unless setup via a custom SFSymbol)? is there any way I can influence the size of the image? I tried multiple SwiftUI modifiers (.imageScale, .font, .resizable, .controlSize) none of them seem to work. My image remains too tiny the image size of the on and off state is different. Seems to be enforced by the system. Is there any way to make both images use the same size? the on-state tints the image. Is there a way to set the tint color? .tint and .foregroundstyle seem to be ignored. Thank you for your help

I've worked through Apple's dice demo for SwiftUI, so far so good. I've got a single Die view with a button to "roll" the die. This works perfectly using the code below: struct DieView: View { init(dieType: DieType) { self.dieValue = Int.random(in: 1...dieType.rawValue) self.dieType = dieType } @State private var dieValue: Int @State private var dieType: DieType var body: some View { VStack { if self.dieType == DieType.D6 { Image(systemName: "die.face.\(dieValue)") .resizable() .frame(width: 100, height: 100) .padding() } else {//self.dieType == DieType.D12{ Text("\(self.dieValue)") .font(.largeTitle) } Button("Roll"){ withAnimation{ dieValue = Int.random(in: 1...dieType.rawValue) } } .buttonStyle(.bordered) } Spacer() } } Now I want to do a DiceSetView with an arbitrary number of dice. I've got the UI working with the following; struct DiceSetView: View { @State private var totalScore: Int = 0 var body: some View { ScrollView(.horizontal) { HStack{ DieView(dieType: DieType.D6) DieView(dieType: DieType.D6) DieView(dieType: DieType.D6) } } HStack{ Button("Roll All"){} .buttonStyle(.bordered) Text("Score \(totalScore)") .font(.callout) } Spacer() } } Where I'm struggling is how to get the total of all the dice in a set and to roll all the dice in a set on a button click. I can't iterate through the dice, and just "click" the buttons in the child views from their parents, and I can't think how it should be structured to achieve this (I'm new to this style of programming!) - can anyone point me in the right direction for how to achieve what I want? I realise that I'm probably missing something fundamentally conceptual here....

I'm sure this is a basic question, but I'm new to this style of development, so thought Id ask... I've worked through Apple's dice roller demo, so far so good - I'm using the code below to render and roll a single die; struct DieView: View { init(dieType: DieType) { self.dieValue = Int.random(in: 1...dieType.rawValue) self.dieType = dieType } @State private var dieValue: Int @State private var dieType: DieType var body: some View { VStack { if self.dieType == DieType.D6 { Image(systemName: "die.face.\(dieValue)") .resizable() .frame(width: 100, height: 100) .padding() } else { Text("\(self.dieValue)") .font(.largeTitle) } } Button("Roll"){ withAnimation{ dieValue = Int.random(in: 1...dieType.rawValue) } } .buttonStyle(.bordered) Spacer() } } Again, so far so good - works as I'd expect. I can now also add multiple DieViews to a DiceSetView and they display as I'd expect. Where I'm stuck is in the DiceSetView, I want to both determine the total score across the dice, and also offer the ability to Roll All the dice in a set. (Ultimately I want another level above the set, so I'll be looking to roll all dice in all sets) I can't simply call a func / method on the child view (i.e. iterate through them and sum their values, and roll each), I suspect I need to change how it's all structured, but not sure where to go from here... Can anyone point me in the right direction?

I have an icon button in toolbar but only the icon is triggering tap events while outside icon button gives tap feedback but event is not firing. Code: ToolbarItem(placement: .navigationBarTrailing) { Button(action: toggleBookmark) { Image(systemName: isBookmarked ? "bookmark.fill" : "bookmark") .resizable() .aspectRatio(0.8, contentMode: .fit) .frame(width: 20, height: 20) } } Here toggleBookmark function is only called if I click on Image but not if I click outside image but on the circular button that appears on iOS 26. See this screen recording.

Hi! I am developing a game for iOS using Objective-C and C++. I am trying to migrate an app to scene-based life cycle, but having a problem while mirroring screen from iPhone to MacBook using AirPlay. At this moment I don't want to implement multi-window (or multi-scene) support. The only thing I want is to have ability of screen mirroring. From the documentation from here and here I can't understand which UISceneConfiguration should I return. If I define a UIWindowSceneDelegate for the configuration, how should I handle scene:willConnectToSession:options: if the window has been already created for main device screen? Returning nil is not documented. Is there any examples? Also, I would expect that defining UIApplicationSupportsMultipleScenes to NO in Info.plist will automatically disable second scene creating. This is mentioned in documentation here, but this is not true, because I still see second scene creation (its pointer differs from one that was already created) in UIWindowSceneDelegate. What am I doing wrong? Any hints are highly appreciated!

I have a Menu in a Toolbar (specifically, the .bottomBar). If I open the menu quickly after it appears (within a few seconds), it flies to the top of the screen. I've created a minimum woking example below. This appears to be a pretty glaring iOS 26 bug that has been present since the early betas, but I can't seem to find much discussion about it (apart from this post from 8 months ago), so I'm wondering if I might be doing something wrong. Or maybe someone managed to figure out a workaround. If the Menu is very simple (just Text items), it seems to be okay. But if the Menu is even slightly complex (e.g. includes icons), then it exhibits the flying behavior. I've also been able to reproduce this bug under different types of navigation component (e.g. NavigationSplitView). I'm seeing this behavior in the current version of iOS (26.2.1), both on device and in the simulator. MWE struct ContentView: View { var body: some View { NavigationStack { VStack { NavigationLink("Go to Detail") { DetailView() } } .navigationTitle("Root") } } } struct DetailView: View { var body: some View { VStack { Text("Detail View") } .navigationTitle("Detail") .navigationBarTitleDisplayMode(.inline) .toolbar { ToolbarItem(placement: .bottomBar) { Menu { Button { } label: { Label("Delete", systemImage: "trash") } } label: { Image(systemName: "ellipsis.circle") } } } } }

Hi. In my project, I use the following property to access the safe area via UIApplication: UIApplication .shared .connectedScenes .flatMap { ($0 as? UIWindowScene)?.windows ?? [] } .first { $0.isKeyWindow }?.safeAreaInsets However, in Xcode 26 and iOS 26, this no longer works, and in some cases the app crashes. Views that rely on this property stop behaving as expected. For example, if it’s a sheet, it does not appear. The same app built with Xcode 16 and distributed via TestFlight runs on iOS 26 without any issues. What is the correct and safe way to obtain safeAreaInsets outside of a View now?
