[QUESTION] Mac Catalyst Support #2

Closed willm132 closed 5 months ago

willm132 commented 7 months ago

Does this support Mac Catalyst?

toastersocks commented 7 months ago

@willm132 I haven't explicitly tested it with macCatalyst, but I don't see why it wouldn't work. Very likely to work in designed for iPad mode, but I feel less sure about the mode that tries to bridge closer to macOS design. I'll test it when I get some time.

Native non-Catalyst SwiftUI for macOS is also ideal

@aehlke if you're looking for this functionality on macOS, you can use the native SwiftUI.Picker which supports optional and multiple selections on that platform. However on iOS, this is not supported. MultiPicker exists to fill this gap on iOS.

aehlke commented 5 months ago

Thanks but I don't believe it can be styled with checkmarks like yours, or otherwise styled as selection components, which don't require holding a modifier key while clicking to multi-select

toastersocks commented 5 months ago

@aehlke Oh, I see what you mean. Yes, you're right, it's not quite the same. It would be useful. Lots of different design options (radio buttons, checkboxes, highlighting the whole cell, menu style) for mac. Menu style is something I'd personally be interested in for both iOS and macOS. Is there any particular style of multi-picker that you're especially keen on having for macOS?

aehlke commented 5 months ago

I'll think more about it and get back to you with more specific use case. I suppose checkbox style is most native feeling.

toastersocks commented 5 months ago

@aehlke Ok, sounds good. I imagine we'd want multiple styles supported, but I feel like things usually turn out better when I base my work/designs around real-world use-cases. I'll go ahead and close this for now, but feel free to open another issue if you come up with a concrete use-case of a multi-picker style you'd want to use 🙂

@willm132 I just tested it, and it looks like it works just fine in both macCatalyst modes 👍

aehlke commented 5 months ago

I realized I can do a lot with Form too already. But it's another scroll view.

toastersocks commented 5 months ago

@aehlke Oh, can you elaborate? Maybe it's an approach I can take on mac.

https://www.fline.dev/multi-selector-in-swiftui/ has some examples. don't have macos screens on hand to compare.
