Is the Cancel button intentionally removed from UISearchBar (right side)? Even when using searchController with navigationItem also. showsCancelButton = true doesn’t display the cancel button. Also: When tapping the clear ("x") button inside the search field, the search is getting canceled, and searchBarCancelButtonClicked(_:) is triggered (Generally it should only clear text, not cancel search). If the search text is empty and I tap outside the search bar, the search is canceled. Also when I have tableview in my controller(like recent searches) below search bar and if I try to tap when editing started, action is not triggered(verified in sample too). Just cancellation is happening. In a split view controller, if the search is on the right side and I try to open the side panel, the search also gets canceled. Are these behaviors intentional changes, beta issues, or are we missing something in implementation?

I have added a UICollectionViewCell to my storyboard, and I added a UILabel to my UICollectionViewCell in storyboard. I have created a cell registration using UICollectionView.CellRegistration and have implemented the cellProvider closure for the datasource which dequeue a collection view cell of type TapLabelCollectionViewCell(I have subclassed the cell in my storyboard to this class). In my TapLabelCollectionViewCell, I am trying to set the tap gesture recogniser on the label, but the label appears nil, which I've connected using an @IBOutlet. Why is this and how can I fix it? My code : // UI View Controller: class TapGridViewController: UIViewController { override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() // Do any additional setup after loading the view. tapGridCollectionView.collectionViewLayout = createLayout() configureDataSource() applySnapshot() } func configureDataSource() { let cellRegistration = UICollectionView.CellRegistration<TapLabelCollectionViewCell, CellItem>(handler: { (cell: TapLabelCollectionViewCell, indexPath: IndexPath, item: CellItem) in cell.taplabel.text = String(item.labelCount) }) dataSource = UICollectionViewDiffableDataSource(collectionView: tapGridCollectionView, cellProvider: { (collectionView: UICollectionView, indexPath: IndexPath, item: CellItem) in let cell = collectionView.dequeueConfiguredReusableCell(using: cellRegistration, for: indexPath, item: item) cell.delegate = self cell.index = indexPath.row return cell }) } } // UI Collection View Cell: protocol TapLabelCollectionViewCellDelegate: AnyObject { func incrementNumberOfTaps(index: Int) } class TapLabelCollectionViewCell: UICollectionViewCell { @IBOutlet var taplabel: UILabel! var delegate: TapLabelCollectionViewCellDelegate? var index: Int! static let identifier = "tapLabelCellIdentifier" override init(frame: CGRect) { super.init(frame: frame) setUpTapGestureRecognizer() } required init?(coder: NSCoder) { super.init(coder: coder) } func setUpTapGestureRecognizer() { let tapGestureRecognizer = UITapGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: #selector(incrementNumberOfTaps)) print("tap Label,", taplabel) taplabel.addGestureRecognizer(tapGestureRecognizer) } @objc func incrementNumberOfTaps() { delegate?.incrementNumberOfTaps(index: index) } }

We're seeing sporadic crashes on devices running iOS 18.1 - both beta and release builds (22B83). The stack trace is always identical, a snippet of it below. As you can tell from the trace, it's happening in places we embed SwiftUI into UIKit via UIHostingController.

I'm using UIDocumentPickerViewController to open a url. Works fine in debug mode but version on the App Store is failing. Code to create the document picker is like: NSArray *theTypes = [UTType typesWithTag:@"docxtensionhere" tagClass:UTTagClassFilenameExtension conformingToType:nil]; UIDocumentPickerViewController *documentPicker = [[UIDocumentPickerViewController alloc]initForOpeningContentTypes:theTypes]; documentPicker.delegate = self;   [self presentViewController:documentPicker animated:YES completion:nil]; So in debug mode this is all gravy. -documentPicker:didPickDocumentsAtURLs: passes back a URL and I can read the file. In release mode I get a URL but my app is denied access to read the file. After inspecting some logging it appears the sandbox is not granting my app permission. error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=257 "The file “Filename.fileextensionhere” couldn’t be opened because you don’t have permission to view it." UserInfo={NSFilePath=/private/var/mobile/Library/Mobile Documents/comappleCloudDocs/Filename.fileextensionhere, NSUnderlyingError=0x2834c9da0 {Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=1 "Operation not permitted"}} -- If I'm doing something wrong with UIDocumentPickerViewController it is a real shame that permission is not being denied in Debug mode, as devs are more likely to catch in prior to release. Anyone know where I'm going wrong and if not have a workaround? Thanks in advance.

Following on from this thread: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/805037 my list of items is now correctly maintaining state (no more disappearing rows), but I'm now hitting a really annoying issue: Every time something changes - even just changing the dark mode of the device - the entire list of items is refreshed, and the list jumps back to the top. A simple representation: // modelData.filteredItems is either all items or some items, depending on whether the user is searching List { ForEach(modelData.filteredItems) { item in ItemRow(item: item) } } When the user isn't searching, filteredItems has everything in it. When they turn on search, I filter and sort the data in place: // Called when the user turns on search, or when the searchString or searchType changes func sortAndFilterItemsInModelData() { modelData.filteredItems.removeAll() // Remove all items from the filtered array modelData.filteredItems.append(contentsOf: modelData.allItems) // Add all items back in let searchString: String = modelData.searchString.lowercased() switch(modelData.searchType) { case 1: // Remove all items from the filtered array that don't match the search string modelData.filteredItems.removeAll(where: { !$0.name.lowercased().contains(searchString) }) ... } // Sorting switch(modelData.sortKey) { case sortKeyDate: modelData.sortAscending ? modelData.filteredItems.sort { $0.date < $1.date } : modelData.filteredItems.sort { $0.date > $1.date } // Sorts in place ... } } The method doesn't return anything because all the actions are done in place on the data, and the view should display the contents of modelData.filteredItems. If you're searching and there are, say 10 items in the list and you're at the bottom of the list, then you change the search so there are now 11 items, it jumps back to the top rather than just adding the extra ItemRow to the bottom. Yes, the data is different, but it hasn't been replaced; it has been altered in place. The biggest issue here is that you can simply change the device to/from Dark Mode - which can happen automatically at a certain time of day - and you're thrown back to the top of the list. The array of data hasn't changed, but SwiftUI treats it as though it has. There's also a section in the List that can be expanded and contracted. It shows or hides items of a certain type. When I expand it, I expect the list to stay in the same place and just show the extra rows, but again, it jumps to the top. It's a really poor user experience. Am I doing something wrong (probably, yes), or is there some other way to retain the scroll position in a List? The internet suggests switching to a LazyVStack, but I lose left/right swipe buttons and the platform-specific styling. Thanks.

We're trying to implement a backup/restore data feature in our business productivity iPad app using UIDocumentPickerViewController and AppleArchive, but discovered odd behavior of [UIDocumentPickerViewController initForOpeningContentTypes: asCopy:YES] when reading large archive files from a USB drive. We've duplicated this behavior with iPadOS 16.6.1 and 17.7 when building our app with Xcode 15.4 targeting minimum deployment of iPadOS 16. We haven't tested this with bleeding edge iPadOS 18. Here's our Objective-C code which presents the picker: NSArray* contentTypeArray = @[UTTypeAppleArchive]; UIDocumentPickerViewController* docPickerVC = [[UIDocumentPickerViewController alloc] initForOpeningContentTypes:contentTypeArray asCopy:YES]; docPickerVC.delegate = self; docPickerVC.allowsMultipleSelection = NO; docPickerVC.shouldShowFileExtensions = YES; docPickerVC.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationPopover; docPickerVC.popoverPresentationController.sourceView = self.view; [self presentViewController:docPickerVC animated:YES completion:nil]; The UIDocumentPickerViewController remains visible until the selected external archive file has been copied from the USB drive to the app's local tmp sandbox. This may take several seconds due to the slow access speed of the USB drive. During this time the UIDocumentPickerViewController does NOT disable its tableview rows displaying files found on the USB drive. Even the most patient user will tap the desired filename a second (or third or fourth) time since the user's initial tap appears to have been ignored by UIDocumentPickerViewController, which lacks sufficient UI feedback showing it's busy copying the selected file. When the user taps the file a second time, UIDocumentPickerViewController apparently begins to copy the archive file once again. The end result is a truncated copy of the selected file based on the time between taps. For instance, a 788 MB source archive may be copied as a 56 MB file. Here, the UIDocumentPickerDelegate receives a 56 MB file instead of the original 788 MB of data. Not surprisingly, AppleArchive fails to decrypt the local copy of the archive because it's missing data. Instead of failing gracefully, AppleArchive crashes in AAArchiveStreamClose() (see forums post 765102 for details). Does anyone know if there's a workaround for this strange behavior of UIDocumentPickerViewController?

I have noticed that in iOS 14 the UIPickerView has by default a light grey background on the selected Row like shown here. https://developer.apple.com/design/human-interface-guidelines/ios/controls/pickers/ I noticed also that pickerView.showsSelectionIndicator is deprecated on iOS 14. Is there a way to change the background color to white and add separators to achieve a pre iOS 14 UIPickerView style? Thank you

The following code only ever causes shouldDrawInsertionPoint to be printed (no drawInsertionPoint), but even if that method returns false, the blinking insertion point is still drawn. On the other hand, with TextKit 1 it works as expected. Is there a way to hide the default insertion point in TextKit 2? My app draws its own. I've filed FB13684251. class TextView: NSTextView { override var shouldDrawInsertionPoint: Bool { print("shouldDrawInsertionPoint") return false } override func drawInsertionPoint(in rect: NSRect, color: NSColor, turnedOn flag: Bool) { print("drawInsertionPoint", flag) } } ``

After two types of objects correctly inserted as nodes in an augmented reality setting, I replicated exactly the same procedure with a third kind of objects that unfortunately refuse to show up. I checked the flow and it is the same as the other objects as well the content of the LocationAnnotation, but there is surely something that escapes me. Could someone help with some ideas? This is the common code, apart of the class: func appendInAR(ghostElement: Ghost){ let ghostElementAnnotationLocation=GhostLocationAnnotationNode(ghost: ghostElement) ghostElementAnnotationLocation.scaleRelativeToDistance = true sceneLocationView.addLocationNodeWithConfirmedLocation(locationNode: ghostElementAnnotationLocation) shownGhostsAnnotations.append(ghostElementAnnotationLocation) }

I have a UIKit app with a custom navigation controller. I want my view title to go up into the navigation bar when the user scrolls down the screen. It looks like UIScrollEdgeElementContainerInteraction should do what I want, but I am having trouble using it. Below is a sample, where a header view represents a title. I added the interaction to the header view, but it seems to have no effect. Am I missing a step? Perhaps I misunderstand what this is supposed to do, or perhaps I do not understand the preconditions to make this work. I am hoping someone can tell me what I am doing wrong, or point me to some working sample code. Thank you.

Hello! My question is about 1) if we can use any and or all accessibility features within a sandboxed app and 2) what steps we need to take to do so. Using accessibility permissions, my app was working fine in Xcode. It used NSEvent.addGlobalMonitorForEvents and localMoniter, along with CGEvent.tapCreate. However, after downloading the same app from the App Store, the code was not working. I believe this was due to differences in how permissions for accessibility are managed in Xcode compared to production. Is it possible for my app to get access to all accessibility features, while being distributed on the App Store though? Do I need to add / request any special entitlements like com.apple.security.accessibility? Thanks so much for the help. I have done a lot of research on this online but found some conflicting information, so wanted to post here for a clear answer.

Hi, I have a NavigationSplitView with a view in the detail section: NavigationSplitView { ZStack { Color.black.ignoresSafeArea() gradientBlack2Blue.opacity(0.25) .ignoresSafeArea() GeometryReader { p in VStack { List { SidebarViewCell(id: "1", text: "Steuersätze" , type: .TAX_MASTERDATA , selectedMasterdataType: $selectedMasterdataType) }.listRowSpacing(size.height * 1.25 / 100 ) .scrollContentBackground(.hidden) .toolbar(.hidden, for: .navigationBar) .frame(width: p.size.width * 98 / 100 , height: p.size.height, alignment: .topLeading). }alignment: .topLeading) } } } detail: { MasterdataDetailView().ignoresSafeArea() } }.navigationSplitViewStyle(.balanced) When I place a Button-Control in the MasterdataDetailView it cannot be clicked because it is in the safe area. How can I make it clickable? Best Regards, Frank

Using desaturated mode on an image in a widget will break any links or buttons that use the image as their 'label'. Using the following will just open the app as if there was no link at all - therefore just using the fallback userActivity handler, or any .widgetURL() urls provided. Link(destination: URL(string: "bug://never-works")!) { Image("puppy") .widgetAccentedRenderingMode(.desaturated) } The same goes for buttons: Button(intent: MyDemoIntent()) { Image("puppy") .widgetAccentedRenderingMode(.desaturated) } I've tried hacky solutions like putting the link behind the image using a ZStack, and disabling hit testing on the image, but they don't work. Anything else to try? Logged as Feedback #15152620.

I am using a LayzVStack embedded into a ScrollView. The list items are fetched from a core data store by using a @FetchResult or I tested it also with the new @Query command coming with SwiftData. The list has one hundred items 1, 2, 3, ..., 100. The user scrolled the ScrollView so that items 50, 51, ... 60 are visible on screen. Now new data will be fetched from the server and updates the CoreData or SwiftData model. When I add new items to the end of the list (e.g 101, 102, 103, ...) then the ScrollView is keeping its position. Opposite to this when I add new items to the top (0, -1, -2, -3, ...) then the ScrollView scrolls down. Is there a way with the new SwiftData and SwiftUI ScrollView modifiers to update my list model without scrolling like with UIKit where you can query and set the scroll offset pixel wise?

I have SwiftData models containing arrays of Codable structs that worked fine before adding CloudKit capability. I believe they are the reason I started seeing errors after enabling CloudKit. Example model: @Model final class ProtocolMedication { var times: [SchedulingTime] = [] // SchedulingTime is Codable // other properties... } After enabling CloudKit, I get this error logged to the console: 'NSKeyedUnarchiveFromData' should not be used to for un-archiving and will be removed in a future release CloudKit Console shows this times data as "plain text" instead of "bplist" format. Other struct/enum properties display correctly (I think) as "bplist" in CloudKit Console. The local SwiftData storage handled these arrays fine - this issue only appeared with CloudKit integration. What's the recommended approach for storing arrays of Codable structs in SwiftData models that sync with CloudKit?

I have something that looks like: NavigationStack { List(self.items, id: \.self, selection: self.$selectedItems) { item in NavigationLink { ItemView(item: item) .environment(\.managedObjectContext, self.viewContext) } label: { LabelWithMenuView(object: item) { ptr in self.labelHandler(item: item, newName: ptr) } } } if self.editMode?.wrappedValue == .active { editButtons } else { TextField("Add Item", text: self.$newItem) .onSubmit { self.addItem() self.newItem = "" } .padding() } } #if os(iOS) .toolbar { EditButton() } .onChange(of: self.editMode?.wrappedValue) { old, new in print("editMode \(old) -> \(new)") } #endif With that layout, the edit button doesn't show up at all; if I put it as part of the List, it does show up, but the first click doesn't do anything; after that, it works, but the onChange handler doesn't show it getting changed, and the editButtons don't go away.

I have a custom document-based iOS app that also runs on macOS. After implementing -activityItemsConfiguration to enable sharing from the context menu, I found that the app crashes on macOS when selecting Share… from the context menu and then selecting Save (i.e. Save to Files under iOS). This problem does not occur on iOS, which behaves correctly. - (id<UIActivityItemsConfigurationReading>)activityItemsConfiguration { NSItemProvider * provider = [[NSItemProvider alloc] initWithContentsOfURL:self.document.presentedItemURL]; UIActivityItemsConfiguration * configuration = [UIActivityItemsConfiguration activityItemsConfigurationWithItemProviders:@[ provider ]]; // XXX crashes with com.apple.share.System.SaveToFiles return configuration; } Additionally, I found that to even reach this crash, the workaround implemented in the NSItemProvider (FBxxx) category of the sample project is needed. Without this, the app will crash much earlier, due to SHKItemIsPDF() erroneously invoking -pathExtension on an NSItemProvider. This appears to be a second bug in Apple’s private ShareKit framework. #import <UniformTypeIdentifiers/UniformTypeIdentifiers.h> @implementation NSItemProvider (FBxxx) // XXX SHKItemIsPDF() invokes -pathExtension on an NSItemProvider (when running under macOS, anyway) -> crash - (NSString *)pathExtension { return self.registeredContentTypes.firstObject.preferredFilenameExtension; } @end Again, this all works fine on iOS (17.5) but crashes when the exact same app build is running on macOS (14.5). I believe these bugs are Apple's. Any idea how to avoid the crash? Is there a way to disable the "Save to Files" option in the sharing popup? I filed FB13819800 with a sample project that demonstrates the crash on macOS. I was going to file a TSI to get this resolved, but I see that DTS is not responding to tech support incidents until after WWDC.
