I never thought about that. Thought regardless of what other encoding was set, it should be compatible with utf-8 since i didnt see any out of the ordinary character in there.

Any insights will help why it works if i set .ascii instead of .utf8?

Thanks for the tip!

Thank you for helping out. More or less what you provided is what i had tried The only remaining part to correct is the if let someClass. It worked when i did if let someClass = someClass Thanks

It has only been like 5 minute and I wanted to delete my post because I found the answer but couldn't. So no, it is not possible to do so regardless how early the post was.

Since NavigationLink does not work in a menu, some say to use binding state variables. I did manage to get it to work. But i wonder, is this the only way? It looks ugly having to have 6 state variable just for 6 menu items in the menu.
