NavigationStack in combination with a TabView (SwiftUI, iOS16) - swiftui

What is the correct way to combine the mentioned views.
As of now, i have a NavigationStack at the bottom of my app. It displays a LaunchView as root. When a user is authenticated, the main view is added to the stack, if not, the login/ register views are added to the stack. This works fine.
NavigationStack(path: self.$vm.path) {
LaunchView()
.navigationDestination(for: Authentication.self) { value in
switch value {
case .login:
LoginView(vm: LoginViewModel() { type, action in
...
})
case .verify: // let .verify(email)
VerifyMailView(vm: VerifyMailViewModel() { type, action in
...
})
case .authenticated:
AuthenticatedView() { type, action in
self.vm.set(type: type) { value in
...
}
}
}
}
}
The AuthenticatedView consists of a TabView with three views. Here comes the issue. I assumed i could set the title and toolbars of the three views directly on them, which is not the case. However i don't want nor can set the titles or the toolbars within the tabview, as they require data from the views viewmodels (to which the TabView has, and should not have, no access).
TabView(selection: self.$vm.index) {
DiscoverView(vm: DiscoverViewModel(account: self.vm.$account, type: self.type))
.tabItem {
Image(self.vm.index == 0 ? "discover.selected" : "discover")
}
.tag(0)
MatchesView(vm: MatchesViewModel(type: self.type))
.tabItem {
Image(self.vm.index == 1 ? "matches.selected" : "matches")
}
.tag(1)
ProfileView(vm: ProfileViewModel(account: self.vm.$account, type: self.type))
.tabItem {
Image(self.vm.index == 2 ? "profile.selected" : "profile")
}
.tag(2)
}
.toolbar(.hidden, for: .navigationBar)
The only workaround i found is to hide the navigationbar in the TabView and to set new NavigationViews within the child views.
NavigationView {
VStack {
...
}
.navigationTitle(Text("discover"))
.toolbar {
...
}
}
This, however, feels not correct as it is a NavigationView inside a NavigationView and even is buggy (the title and toolbar are sometimes placed below their normal position, kind of like below the hidden, but still exisiting navigation bar of the TabView).
Thus, has anyone found a solution of how to properly combine a NavigationStack with a TabView ?

SwiftUI - NavigationLink and NavigationStack is not working with a button for iOS 16

I am making an app where I need to navigate to the home page when the user clicks on the Login button and when the Login button is clicked, the navigation link code is not working and shows a warning as Result of 'NavigationLink<Label, Destination>' initializer is unused. FYI, please refer to the attached screenshot and the below code:
import SwiftUI
struct LoginView: View {
var nextButton: some View {
HStack {
Button("Next") {
NavigationLink {
HomeView(user: user)
} label: {
Text("Test")
}
}
.buttonStyle(PlainButtonStyle())
.font(.system(size: 24))
}
}
var body: some View {
NavigationStack {
nextButton
}
}
}
There are two problems here:
A NavigationLink is an alternative to a Button and can be used on its own for navigation. You can use a button to navigate programatically, but for this simple case a link works. Like Buttons, you can change the appearance of NavigationLinks if needed.
NavigationStack is a more powerful replacement for NavigationView. You should not mix them both. As the HomeView is your root view, the single NavigationStack for your app should be there (not in the LoginView).
struct HomeView: View {
var body: some View {
NavigationStack {
VStack {
NavigationLink {
LoginView()
} label: {
Text("Login")
}
}
}
}
}
The warning is because you are creating a NavigationLink in the button action code block, and returned NavigationLink is not assigned or used.

How to fix double back button in SwiftUI

I got 2 views. On the second view I have list of exercises and when I choose one of them and go inside I see double back. It's driving me crazy.
First one:
import SwiftUI
struct ProgrammView: View {
var body: some View {
NavigationView{
ScrollView(.vertical, showsIndicators: false) {
VStack {
Text("blabla")
.multilineTextAlignment(.center)
.font(.custom("AvenirNext-Bold", size: 30))
NavigationLink{
InsultHandProgram()
} label: {
Image("35")
.resizable()
.scaledToFit()
.padding(.horizontal)
.padding(.bottom, 7)
.shadow(radius: 5)
}
}
}
}
}
}
Second one:
import SwiftUI
struct InsultHandProgram: View {
let numbers = InsultProgram.getInsultProgram()
var body: some View {
NavigationStack {
List(numbers) { InsultProgram in
NavigationLink( InsultProgram.name, value: InsultProgram)
}
.navigationTitle("blabla")
.navigationDestination(for: InsultProgram.self) {
InsultProgram in InsultProgrammDetail(InsultProgram: InsultProgram)
}
}
}
I tried to change navigation stack. It's crushed.
If you use NavigationView, then it provides the navigation bars for all its child views. NavigationStack in your child view also wants to provide a navigation bar, and so you end up with two.
To remedy the situation you have some choices:
Remove the NavigationStack from your child view and let NavigationView manage everything.
Remove NavigationStack from you child view and replace NavigationView in your parent with a NavigationStack. This will work fine on iPhones, but doesn't adapt well to iPads.
Keep your navigation stack in the child view but replace NavigationView with NavigationSplitView. This came in with iOS16, as did NavigationStack. The two work well together so they don't step on each other's toes when it comes to setting up navigation bars.
Given you're already using other iOS 16 idioms such as navigationDestination I'd recommend approach 3.

SwiftUI: Change navigation bar title in the more tab?

I am begining to get my haead around swiftUI. So I have a simple tabView inside a Navigation View as below.
import SwiftUI
struct BasicView: View {
var climbList: [ClimbDetail]
var body: some View {
NavigationView{
VStack{
Text("").navigationBarTitle("Climbers Log", displayMode:.inline)
TabView {
Text("Search").tabItem{
Image(systemName:"magnifyingglass")
Text("Search")
}
Text("Stats").tabItem{
Image(systemName:"list.dash")
Text("Stats")
}
ClimbList(climbs: climbList).tabItem{
Image(systemName: "square")
Text("Climbs")
}
Text("Log").tabItem{
Image(systemName:"square.and.pencil")
Text("Log")
}
Text("Profile").tabItem{
Image(systemName:"person.circle")
Text("Profile")
}
Text("Settings").tabItem{
Image(systemName:"gear")
Text("Settings")
}
Text("Add Climb").tabItem{
Image(systemName:"plus")
Text("Add Climb")
}
}
}
}
}
}
Genrally it works as expected, however as I have 7 tabs it defults to the 'More' tab for the 5th tab. This is fine and good for the user.
However my issue is when you click the 'More' tab you get the a title bar and edit button with 'More' as the title. Which appears below the title bar I have set above.
So my question is how can I hide my titleBar when the user is on the 'More' tab and only show it inside the other tabs?
First off all, thanks for the question. I didn't know Apple provides More page by default for too long TabBars. I always needed that.
Back to you question, you just need to rearrange things. First off all, make the TabBar top level. Then a NavigationView and here comes your content. Later on you might outsource every view, to an own file.
TabView {
NavigationView
{
VStack
{
Text("Search")
}
.navigationBarTitle("Climbers Log", displayMode:.inline)
}.tabItem {
Image(systemName:"magnifyingglass")
Text("Search")
}
Every view takes it own NavigationView.. and then it works.

Multiple NavigationLink in SwiftUI

Can you have multiple NavigationLinks in SwiftUI? The following only displays the first Link:
struct Test : View {
var body: some View {
NavigationView {
NavigationLink(destination: Text("First")) {
Text("Visible")
}
NavigationLink(destination: Text("Second")) {
Text("Invisible")
}
//EDIT: Also Invisible
Text("Not rendered")
}
}
}
EDIT: Turns out everything under the first NavigationLink is not displayed
Put your views inside a VStack:
struct Test : View {
var body: some View {
NavigationView {
VStack {
NavigationLink(destination: Text("First")) {
Text("Visible")
}
NavigationLink(destination: Text("Second")) {
Text("Invisible")
}
//EDIT: Also Invisible
Text("Not rendered")
}
}
}
}
Look you can definitely have multiple NavigationLinks but here you are doing one things wrong.
The body property returns a single View but here you are trying to return more than one views, which causes the error.
To Solve this issue we put them inside another View like a VStack or a HStack, like shown above in the answer given by kontiki.

SwiftUI Navigation Bar Title doesn't appear

I'm not sure if anything changed in Beta 3, however, when trying to add the NavigationBarTitle modifier to NavigationView, it does not show the text for the title? Any ideas?
NavigationView {
List(0 ..< 20) { item in
NavigationLink(destination: Text("1")) {
Text("Navigate 1")
}
}
}.navigationBarTitle(Text("Update")).navigationBarHidden(false)
}
The list shows but no title for the list in the NavigationView
You're setting .navigationBarTitle and .navigationBarHidden on NavigationView when they should be modifiers on List instead:
NavigationView {
List(0..<20) { item in
NavigationLink(destination: Text("1")) {
Text("Navigate 1")
}
}
.navigationBarTitle("Update")
.navigationBarHidden(false)
}
You can also just remove .navigationBarHidden(false) (unless you're setting it to true in a previous view or something).
Your code works fine and the navigationBarTitle is not outdated. It must be placed above (inside the Navigation View). Yes, it is sometimes confusing, it is necessary to remember this.
To the place where you currently have it .navigationBarTitle(Text ("Update")).navigationBarHidden(false) you need to set the modifier .navigationViewStyle(StackNavigationViewStyle ()), which means that you should always show the first screen regardless of the screen size.
var body: some View {
NavigationView {
List(0 ..< 20) { item in
NavigationLink(destination: Text("1")) {
Text("Navigate 1")
}
}
.navigationBarTitle(Text("Update"), displayMode: .automatic).navigationBarHidden(false)
}
// that means only show one view at a time no matter what device I'm working
.navigationViewStyle(StackNavigationViewStyle())
}
