Issue #908 When we add another UIWindow, then its rootViewController will decide the style of the status bar, not the rootViewController of the keyWindow anymore childForStatusBarStyle The usual way to fix this is to defer the decision to the correct rootViewController, like in our HUDViewController class HUDViewController: UIViewController { override var childForStatusBarStyle: UIViewController? { let windows = view.window?.windowScene?.windows ?? [] for window in windows where window != self.view.window { return window....

Issue #905 Protect mutable state with Swift actors Actor reentrancy Imagine we have two different concurrent tasks trying to fetch the same image at the same time. The first sees that there is no cache entry, proceeds to start downloading the image from the server, and then gets suspended because the download will take a while. While the first task is downloading the image, a new image might be deployed to the server under the same URL....

Issue #904 Consider this code where we have an ObservableObject with fetch1 and async fetch2, and a fetch inside ContentView Here the observation in Xcode 14 ViewModel.fetch1: run on main thread ViewModel.fetch2: run on cooperative thread pool ContentView.fetch: run on main thread import SwiftUI import CoreData import Combine class ViewModel: ObservableObject { @Published var string = "" func fetch1() { let url = URL(string: "https://google.com")! let data = try!...

Issue #899 Use NSTitlebarAccessoryViewController var titleBarAccessoryVC: NSTitlebarAccessoryViewController { let vc = NSTitlebarAccessoryViewController() let view = HStack { Spacer() Button { } label: { Text("Save") } .buttonStyle(.borderedProminent) .controlSize(.large) } .padding(.horizontal) vc.view = NSHostingView(rootView: view) return vc } let window: NSWindow = ... window.addTitlebarAccessoryViewController(titleBarAccessoryVC)

Issue #898 Change element position using either offset or position, and use DragGesture Use GestureState to store the updating startDragLocation to keep the start location when drag begins, so we can add translation struct MoveModifier: ViewModifier { @Binding var position: CGPoint @GestureState private var startLocation: CGPoint? func body(content: Content) -> some View { content .gesture(gesture) } private var gesture: some Gesture { DragGesture() .onChanged { value in var position = startLocation ?...

Issue #896 Use underscore _focus we get access to underlying FocusState object, but underscore _ is private to a View hence can’t be used in extension If we want to pass FocusState to another View or in extension, we can pass its Binding enum FocusElement: Hashable { case name case email } struct ParentView: View { @FocusState var focus: FocusElement? var body: some View { ChildView1(focus: _focus) ChildView2(focus: $focus) } } struct ChildView1: View { @FocusState var focus: FocusElement?...

Issue #890 In WWDC21, WWDC22 Apple provide a Slack channel https://wwdc22.slack.com/ for people to interact with Apple engineers in digital lounges. Here I note down some interesting Q&As WWDC22 What’s the difference between a custom ViewModifier vs View extension Q: What’s the difference between a custom ViewModifier (without DynamicProperty) that uses some built-in modifiers in body(content:), and a custom View extension func that just use those built-in modifiers? Similarly, what’s the difference between a custom ViewModifier with some DynamicProperty and a custom View with some DynamicProperty (also has a @ViewBuilder content property to receive content to modify) ?...

Issue #888 Embrace Swift generics This generic pattern is really common, so there’s a simpler way to express it. Instead of writing a type parameter explicitly, we can express this abstract type in terms of the protocol conformance by writing “some Animal”. The “some” in “some Animal” indicates that there is a specific type that you’re working with. func feed<A>(animal: A) where A: Animal {} func feed(animal: some Animal) An abstract type that represents a placeholder for a specific concrete type is called an opaque type....

Issue #885 Create NSBitmapImageRep with preferred size and draw NSImage onto that. Need to construct NSBitmapImageRep specifically instead of using convenient initializers like NSBitmapImageRep(data:), NSBitmapImageRep(cgImage:) to avoid device dependant resolution issue. extension NSImage { func pngData( size: CGSize, imageInterpolation: NSImageInterpolation = .high ) -> Data? { guard let bitmap = NSBitmapImageRep( bitmapDataPlanes: nil, pixelsWide: Int(size.width), pixelsHigh: Int(size.height), bitsPerSample: 8, samplesPerPixel: 4, hasAlpha: true, isPlanar: false, colorSpaceName: .deviceRGB, bitmapFormat: [], bytesPerRow: 0, bitsPerPixel: 0 ) else { return nil } bitmap....
