Here is my code:
import SwiftUI
struct ContentView: View {
var link: some View {
NavigationLink(destination: OtherView()) {
Text("NLTitle")
}
.foregroundColor(.blue)
}
var body: some View {
NavigationView {
List {
ZStack {
HStack {
Text("1")
Spacer()
}.padding([.leading, .trailing], 20)
HStack {
Spacer()
Text("2")
.multilineTextAlignment(.center)
.frame(
alignment: .center
)
Spacer()
}
.padding([.leading, .trailing], 20)
HStack {
Spacer()
link
}.padding([.leading, .trailing], 20)
}
}
}
}
}
I have a NavigationLink (named 'link') in a list cell. I would like for the Text within 'link' to be to the rightmost side of the view. To try to accomplish this, I inserted 'link' in an HStack and put a Spacer() before it to try and push it to the rightmost part of the view. When I run the app though, the Text ends up in between Text("1") and Text("2") and I can't figure out why. I want Text("1") to be in the leftmost part of the view, Text("2") to be in the center of the view, and 'link' to be in the rightmost part of the view. I have provided visuals (the colors aren't important, I just wanted to make the different Texts clear):
Desired layout:
What I get instead:
I found that if I take everything out of the List view I get my desired layout. Also, if I keep everything in the List view and replace the NavigationLink with a Button I get my desired layout. The goal is to get the desired layout without having to change either of these aspects.
For the sake of clarity, I didn't include the code for OtherView() as I don't think it's necessary for this question.
The "quick" fix is to add fixedSize() to the NavigationLink
var link: some View {
NavigationLink(destination: Text("OtherView()")) {
Text("NLTitle")
}
.foregroundColor(.blue)
.fixedSize()
}
That will allow the link to shrink.

Picture of what I want
I included a picture of what I want kind of, so basically "Status" on the left side of the Text and "Online" on the total other side. I also would preferably want "Online" to be green, so I think I need to use two different Text views, but how exactly would I do this in a list? Is there any good way to do this?
The way I did what is in the picture is just adding many spaces to Text like this, but obviously that is not very smart and also not exactly what I want.
Text("First Second")
Use HStack{} plus Spacer(). (Code is below the image)
var body: some View {
VStack {
HStack {
Text("First")
Spacer() //this one
Text("Second")
}
.padding()
.background(.blue)
.cornerRadius(15)
}
}
Use a spacer "Spacer()". This is an adaptive view that expands as much as it can.
NavigationView{
List{
VStack{
Text("EdwardCullen")
.padding(.vertical, -20)
AsyncImage(url)) { image in
image
.center()
} placeholder: {
ProgressView()
}
}
# new code here
HStack {
Text("Status")
Spacer()
Text("Online")
.foregroundColor(.green)
}
}
.navigationTitle("EdwardCullen's Profile")
.navigationBarTitleDisplayMode(.inline)
}
Just Use a HStack and put a spacer between two text .
sample code :
HStack{
Text("Status")
Spacer()
Text("Online")
}.cornerRadius(8)
you may use this anywhere you want .
Sample Output:
Sorry for the newbie question, but I'm stuck on why Navigationlink produces no links at all. Xcode compiles, but there's a blank for where the links to the new views are. This particular view is View 3 from ContentView, so the structure is ContentView -> View 2 -> View 3 (trying to link to View 4).
struct MidnightView: View {
var hourItem: HoursItems
#State var showPreferencesView = false
#State var chosenVersion: Int = 0
#State var isPsalmsExpanded: Bool = false
#State var showLXX: Bool = false
var body: some View {
ScrollView (.vertical) {
VStack (alignment: .center) {
Group {
Text (hourItem.hourDescription)
.font(.headline)
Text ("Introduction to the \(hourItem.hourName)")
.font(.headline)
.bold()
.frame(maxWidth: .infinity, alignment: .center)
ForEach (tenthenou, id: \.self) {
Text ("\($0)")
Text ("\(doxasi)")
.italic()
}
}
.padding()
NavigationView {
List {
ForEach (midnightHours, id:\.id) {watch in
NavigationLink ("The \(watch.watchName)", destination: MidnightWatchView (midnightItem: watch, chosenVersion: self.chosenVersion, isPsalmsExpanded: self.isPsalmsExpanded, showLXX: self.showLXX))
}
}
}
Group {
Text ("Absolution of the \(hourItem.hourName)")
.font(.headline)
Text (absolutionTexts[(hourItem.hourName)] ?? " ")
Divider()
Text ("Conclusion of Every Hour")
.font(.headline)
Text (hourConclusion)
Divider()
Text (ourFather)
}
.padding()
}
}
.navigationBarTitle ("The Midnight Hour", displayMode: .automatic)
.navigationBarItems (trailing: Button (action: {self.showPreferencesView.toggle()}) {Text (psalmVersions[chosenVersion])}
.sheet(isPresented: $showPreferencesView) {PreferencesView(showPreferencesView: self.$showPreferencesView, chosenVersion: self.$chosenVersion, isPsalmsExpanded: self.$isPsalmsExpanded, showLXX: self.$showLXX)})
}
}
The cause of the NavigationLink not appearing is probably due to the fact that you're including a List within a ScrollView. Because List is a scrolling component as well, the sizing gets messed up and the List ends up with a height of 0. Remove the List { and corresponding } and your links should appear.
There are a number of other potential issues in your code (as I alluded to in my comment), including a NavigationView in the middle of a ScrollView. I'd remove that as well, as you probably have a NavigationView higher up in your view hierarchy already.
If a List is placed along with other views within a VStack which defines one page within a TabView with PageTabViewStyle, interacting (tap, long pressing) with the other views causes all (visible) rows of the List to get highlighted.
The following View demonstrates this behaviour: tapping or long pressing the Button or the purple area (Color View) will cause the rows in the List to get highlighted (Xcode 12.1 & iOS 14.1).
struct ContentView: View {
var body: some View {
TabView {
VStack {
List {
Text("Row 0")
Text("Row 1")
Text("Row 2")
}
.listStyle(InsetGroupedListStyle())
Spacer()
Button(action: { print("tapped")}, label: { Text("Button") } )
.padding(.vertical, 80)
Spacer()
Color.purple
}
Text("Second Page")
}
.tabViewStyle(PageTabViewStyle())
}
}
I assume this is a bug and have already submitted feedback, but was wondering if there is a workaround while it's not fixed.
wondering if there is a workaround while it's not fixed.
After some investigation & testing the only workaround I see is to use scroll view instead
TabView {
VStack {
ScrollView { // << here
Text("Row 0")
Text("Row 1")
Text("Row 2")
}
Note: of course it might require some manual formatting & layout inside scroll view, but there is no such bug.
What is an effective & effecient way to get the Dismiss button (X) into the top right corner?
I'm struggling with container alignment... can't say I GROK it.
Needless to say ... this ain't it!
var body: some View {
ZStack {
Image("Biz-card_2020")
.resizable()
.edgesIgnoringSafeArea(.all)
HStack(alignment: .top) {
VStack() {
Spacer(minLength: 5) // vertical space
HStack() {
Spacer()
// close Welcome page (X) button
Button(action: {
//print(" - Button to dismiss page \(self.isPresented)")
self.isPresented = false // dismiss the Welcome view
//print(" - after action Button to dismiss Welcome page \(self.isPresented)")
}, label: {
Image(systemName: "xmark.circle" )
.scaledFont(name: "Georgia", size: Const.titleText)
.minimumScaleFactor(0.3)
.accentColor(.white)
.padding(10)
})
}
Spacer()
}
}
}
}
You need to remove Spacer(minLength: 5) and replace it with padding for HStack.
Spacer(minLength: 5) doesn't mean its length will be exactly 5 (only that the minimum length will be 5).
You may also want to extract close button to another function for clarity.
Try the following:
struct ContentView: View {
...
var body: some View {
ZStack {
Image("Biz-card_2020")
.resizable()
.edgesIgnoringSafeArea(.all)
closeButton
}
}
var closeButton: some View {
VStack {
HStack {
Spacer()
Button(action: {
...
}) {
Image(systemName: "xmark.circle")
.padding(10)
}
}
.padding(.top, 5)
Spacer()
}
}
}
ZStack can be configured using .topTrailing etc. You should use those alignments to configure your view. Using something like Spacer() is going to cause the rest of your views to get pushed down.
ZStack(alignment: .topTrailing) {
// your code here
}
If you need to move your code a bit more, use either padding, or offset modifiers.
I'm trying to center a bunch of views in a VStack within a ScrollView in SwiftUI. To simplify things, I'm just trying to get it to work with a single Text view. Here's what I've come up with so far:
var body: some View {
ScrollView(alwaysBounceVertical: true){
HStack(alignment: .center) {
Spacer()
Text("This Is a Test")
Spacer()
} //HStack
.background(Color.green)
} //ScrollView
.background(Color.gray)
}
This results in this:
I want the text to be in the middle like this:
So the HStack should be full-width and the Text should be centered within it. It seems like this should be easy, but I don't get what I'm doing wrong. :)
Using GeometryReader, you can get information about the size of the containing view and use that to size your view.
var body: some View {
GeometryReader { geometry in <--- Added
ScrollView(alwaysBounceVertical: true){
HStack(alignment: .center) {
Spacer()
Text("This Is a Test")
Spacer()
} //HStack
.frame(width: geometry.size.width) <--- Added
.background(Color.green)
} //ScrollView
.background(Color.gray)
}
}
edit: after looking into this more, it seems that part of the problem is that you are using a ScrollView. If you remove that parent, the spacers in the HStack will automatically cause stretching to fill the view. I'm guessing the automatic stretching doesn't happen in ScrollViews because there's no finite limit to how big it can be, how much would it stretch? (because a ScrollView can scroll in any direction)
This seems to be a bug in Xcode 11.0 beta, ScrollView content wouldn't fill the scroll view. If you replace the ScrollView with a List it will work as expected. But if you have to use a scroll view, one workaround is to fix the scroll view's content width.
So your code will look something like this:
ScrollView(alwaysBounceVertical: true) {
HStack(alignment: .center) {
Spacer()
Text("This Is a Test")
Spacer()
} // HStack
.frame(width: UIScreen.main.bounds.width) // set a fixed width
.background(Color.green)
} // ScrollView
.background(Color.gray)
Result:
You should use the modifier frame and set its maxWidth: .infinity.
So it tells its parent: "the wider, the better" :)
var body: some View {
ScrollView(.vertical, showsIndicators: true){
HStack(alignment: .center) {
Spacer()
Text("This Is a Test")
.frame(maxWidth: .infinity) // <- this
Spacer()
} //HStack
.background(Color.green)
} //ScrollView
.background(Color.gray)
}
And this works regardless its parent.
Scrollview or whatever View it's set in.
