WKWebView: Select Text and scroll beyond what's visible
Prime Objective I am trying to have a scroll view with a fixed header, a fixed footer, and a WKWebView in between. Using JavaScript, the height of the webView is determined and set to be large enough to hold the entire content. The Problem When selecting text on the webView, the view does not scroll when the edges are reached (this works if the webView is shown without being embedded in a Scroll view, or if it is the last element) What did I try? I tried reading the scroll view, or adding a gesture recognizer, but all of that does not work because the selection is essentially a system task Sourcecode Sourcecode to demonstrate the issue can be found on GitHub

Recording WKWebView
I am trying to record the requests and responses in a WKWebView, but instruments does not seem to record them. Is this to be expected? The webView is set to inspectable, and I am using the HTTP Traffic instrument. All the requests the app is doing are recorded, but neither the original request for the webView, nor subsequent traffic is recorded. When I use Safari to inspect the webView, all I see is the last page (even when I start the inspector before the first request is made). How can I see these requests?

Weird DateFormatter behavior
I am seeing a weird behavior of the date formatter (Full code is below). When run, this will give the following output: 57: 1 month, 3 weeks, 5 days 58: 1 month, 3 weeks, 6 days 59: 2 months 60: 2 months, 1 day 61: 2 months 62: 2 months, 1 day 63: 2 months, 2 days So both 59 days and 61 days are 2 months, and both 60 and 62 days are 2 months and 1 day. This of course is especially weird because this means, 2 months also comes after 2 months and a day. Can someone explain to me what is going on here? import Foundation let formatter = DateComponentsFormatter() formatter.unitsStyle = .full let calendar = Calendar(identifier: .gregorian) let today = calendar.date(from: DateComponents(year: 2025, month: 7, day: 26))! for day in 57...63 { let startDate = calendar.date(byAdding: .day, value: -day, to: today)! let components = calendar.dateComponents([.day, .weekOfMonth, .month,. year], from: startDate, to: today) let result = formatter.string(from: components)! print ("\(String(format: "%3d", day)): \(result)") }
