In Xcode, you can enable multi-line cursor editing, which allows you to type or edit text at multiple locations simultaneously. This can be incredibly useful for making the same edit on several lines at once. Here’s how you can do it:
Looping through an array of structs in Swift is straightforward and can be done in several ways depending on what you need to achieve. Here’s how to do it:
In Swift, to get the string value of an enum, you typically have a couple of approaches depending on the enum’s definition. Let’s go through them:
Comparing two strings in Swift is straightforward and can be done using the equality operator ==. This operator checks if two strings are exactly the same in terms of their characters and the order in which these characters appear.
In Swift, there are several ways to check for nil and assign a value to a variable, depending on the context and what you want to achieve. Here are some common approaches:
The below should work both on macOS and iOS with one minor change. That is, use UIColor instead of NSColor if you’re planning to use it for iOS.
For various reasons you may want to convert the Color type to a String. And, below is a relatively cleaner way to do it.
In Swift, the switch statement doesn’t automatically fall through to the next case. Each case block is designed to execute only the code within that case, and it doesn’t continue to the next case unless you use the fallthrough keyword.
I was looking for the SF Symbol for the latest Twitter icon, yes the X icon, but I couldn’t find any online. So, I created one here: https://github.com/rampatra/assets/blob/main/SFSymbols/X%20Social%20Network.svg. This works with the latest SF Symbol 5 so you can either import it to your SF Symbols app or use it directly in your Xcode by creating a new Symbol Image Set like shown below.
To display both the app version and build number in a SwiftUI macOS/iOS app, you can use the Bundle class to access information from the app’s Info.plist file. The Info.plist file contains various details about your application, including its version and build number. Here’s how you can do it:
```swiftimport SwiftUI
In Swift, if you encounter a “Result of call to ‘function’ is unused” warning, it means that you’re calling a function that returns a value (typically a result type, such as Result or any other type), but you’re not doing anything with the result. To get rid of this warning, you have a few options depending on the specific situation:
In macOS 14.0 (Sonoma), Apple removed support for NSApp.sendAction to open the Settings view in your SwiftUI app. You now have to use SettingsLink like below:
Setting your app’s icon on the menu bar as a template makes it to adapt to light and dark modes automatically without you doing anything. To do this, you have to use this constructor of MenuBarExtra class.
