I'm trying to understand the new SwiftUI picker style, especially with data from a source other than an array. I have built a picker with an enum. I first made a simple app with only the picker and associated enum. This works as expected.
Strangely, when I copy and paste that code into another app with other controls in the form, the picker seems to be inactive. I see it, but cannot click it.
Here's the first app (the picker works):
struct ContentView: View {
@State private var selectedVegetable = VegetableList.asparagus
var body: some View {
NavigationView {
Form {
Section {
Picker(selection: $selectedVegetable, label: Text("My Vegetables")) {
ForEach(VegetableList.allCases) { v in
Text(v.name).tag(v)
//use of tag makes no difference
}
}
}
}
.navigationBarTitle("Picker with Enum")
}
}
}
enum VegetableList: CaseIterable, Hashable, Identifiable {
case asparagus
case celery
case shallots
case cucumbers
var name: String {
return "\(self)".map {
$0.isUppercase ? " \($0)" : "\($0)" }.joined().capitalized
}
var id: VegetableList {self}
}
Here's the app with other controls (picker does not work).
struct Order {
var includeMustard = false
var includeMayo = false
var quantity: Int = 1
var avocadoStyle = PepperoniStyle.sliced
var vegetableType = VegetableType.none
var breadType = BreadType.wheat
}
struct OrderForm: View {
@State private var order = Order()
@State private var comment = "No Comment"
@State private var selectedVegetable = VegetableType.asparagus
@State private var selectedBread = BreadType.rye
func submitOrder() {}
var body: some View {
Form {
Text("Vegetable Ideas")
.font(.title)
.foregroundColor(.green)
Section {
Picker(selection: $selectedVegetable, label: Text("Vegetables")) {
ForEach(VegetableType.allCases) { v in
Text(v.name).tag(v)
}
}
Picker(selection: $selectedBread, label: Text("Bread")) {
ForEach(BreadType.allCases) { b in
Text(b.name).tag(b)
}
}
}
Toggle(isOn: $order.includeMustard) {
Text("Include Mustard")
}
Toggle(isOn: $order.includeMayo) {
Text("Include Mayonaisse")
}
Stepper(value: $order.quantity, in: 1...10) {
Text("Quantity: \(order.quantity)")
}
TextField("Say What?", text: $comment)
Button(action: submitOrder) {
Text("Order")
}
}
.navigationBarTitle("Picker in Form")
.padding()
}
}
enum PepperoniStyle {
case sliced
case crushed
}
enum BreadType: CaseIterable, Hashable, Identifiable {
case wheat, white, rye, sourdough, seedfeast
var name: String { return "\(self)".capitalized }
var id: BreadType {self}
}
enum VegetableType: CaseIterable, Hashable, Identifiable {
case none
case asparagus
case celery
case shallots
case cucumbers
var name: String {
return "\(self)".map {
$0.isUppercase ? " \($0)" : "\($0)" }.joined().capitalized
}
var id: VegetableType {self}
}
Xcode 11 Beta 7, Catalina Beta 7 There is no behavior difference between Preview and Simulator .I must be missing something simple here. Any guidance would be appreciated.
I wrapped the Form in a NavigationView and the pickers now operate as expected. I need to research that once the documentation is more complete but perhaps this can help someone else.
