SwiftUI HStack with wrap and dynamic height
I have this view to show text tags on multiple lines which I got from SwiftUI HStack with Wrap, but when I add it in a VStack the tags overlap any other view that I put below. The tags are shown properly but the height of the view itself is not calculated inside the VStack. How can I make this view use the height of is content?
import SwiftUI
struct TestWrappedLayout: View {
@State var platforms = ["Ninetendo", "XBox", "PlayStation", "PlayStation 2", "PlayStation 3", "PlayStation 4"]
var body: some View {
GeometryReader { geometry in
self.generateContent(in: geometry)
}
}
private func generateContent(in g: GeometryProxy) -> some View {
var width = CGFloat.zero
var height = CGFloat.zero
return ZStack(alignment: .topLeading) {
ForEach(self.platforms, id: \.self) { platform in
self.item(for: platform)
.padding([.horizontal, .vertical], 4)
.alignmentGuide(.leading, computeValue: { d in
if (abs(width - d.width) > g.size.width)
{
width = 0
height -= d.height
}
let result = width
if platform == self.platforms.last! {
width = 0 //last item
} else {
width -= d.width
}
return result
})
.alignmentGuide(.top, computeValue: {d in
let result = height
if platform == self.platforms.last! {
height = 0 // last item
}
return result
})
}
}
}
func item(for text: String) -> some View {
Text(text)
.padding(.all, 5)
.font(.body)
.background(Color.blue)
.foregroundColor(Color.white)
.cornerRadius(5)
}
}
struct TestWrappedLayout_Previews: PreviewProvider {
static var previews: some View {
TestWrappedLayout()
}
}
Example code:
struct ExampleTagsView: View {
var body: some View {
ScrollView {
VStack(alignment: .leading) {
Text("Platforms:")
TestWrappedLayout()
Text("Other Platforms:")
TestWrappedLayout()
}
}
}
}
struct ExampleTagsView_Previews: PreviewProvider {
static var previews: some View {
ExampleTagsView()
}
}
