PresentationMode.dismiss weird behaviour when using multiple NavigationLinks inside ForEach - swiftui

Question

My app has 4 views (let's call them View_A[root] -> View_B -> View_C -> View_D). The navigation between them was made using NavigationView/NavigationLink.
When I call self.presentationMode.wrappedValue.dismiss() from the last view(View_D) I expect it to dismiss the current view (D) only, but for some reason it dismissed ALL the views and stops at view A (root view).
That's weird.
I spent a couple of hours trying to figure out what's going on there and I found that
- if I remove "ForEach" from "View_A" it works correctly and only the last view is dismissed. Even though ForEach gets just 1 static object in this example.
The second weird thing is that
- if I don't change "self.thisSession.stats" to false it also works correctly dismissing only the last view.
This is super weird as View_A (as far as I understand) is not dependent on thisSession environment variable.
Any ideas on how to prevent View_C and View_B from being dismissed in this case? I wanna end up at View_C after clicking the link, not at View_A.
Any help is appreciated, it took me a while to find out where it comes from but I'm not smart enough to proceed any further ;)
import SwiftUI
struct A_View: View {
#EnvironmentObject var thisSession: CurrentSession
var body: some View {
NavigationView {
VStack {
Text("View A")
ForEach([TestObject()], id: \.id) { _ in
NavigationLink(destination: View_B() ) {
Text("Move to View B")
}
}
}
}
}
}
struct View_B: View {
var body: some View {
NavigationView {
NavigationLink(destination: View_C()
) {
Text("GO TO VIEW C")
}
}
}
}
struct View_C: View {
var body: some View {
ZStack {
NavigationView {
NavigationLink(destination: View_D()) {
Text("GO TO VIEW D")
}
}
}
}
}
struct View_D: View {
#EnvironmentObject var thisSession: CurrentSession
#Environment(\.presentationMode) var presentationMode: Binding<PresentationMode>
var body: some View {
ZStack {
VStack {
Button(action: {
self.thisSession.stats = false
self.presentationMode.wrappedValue.dismiss()
}) {
Text("Return!")
}
}
}
}
}
class CurrentSession: ObservableObject {
#Published var stats: Bool = false
#Published var user: String = "user"
}
struct TestObject: Identifiable, Codable {
let id = UUID()
}

Your issue is with:
NavigationView
There is only supposed to be one NavigationView in an entire view stack. Try removing the NavigationView from views B and C
