Hi all,

I am working on replacing the "number of cups" stepper with a picker showing the range of values 1..20. I personall prefer the stepper approach as you stay on the same page as all the other information and don't have to navigate back and forth, but i digress. anyway, i wrote the following code so that 1 is for singular cup, and then 2-20 are plural (cups):

''' Picker("Coffee Amount", selection: $coffeeAmount) { ForEach(1..<2) { Text("($0) cup") }

ForEach(2..<20) { Text("($0) cups") } }

'''

In writing it this way, the picker does indeed correctly show 1 cup, and then 2 cups, 3 cups etc. However, i see a checkmark at both 1 cup and 2 cups, and whenever i try to select 2 cups it just defaults the daily coffee intake to 1 cup. it works fine for selecting cups 3-20. Just wondering where my logic is going wrong. Separately, I tried incorporating if clauses in the same way we wrote the stepper, but it won't accept that approach for the picker, even if I just write:

''' Picker("Coffee Amount", selection: $coffeeAmount) { ForEach(1..<20) { if coffeeAmount == 1 { Text(" 1 cup") } else { Text("(coffeeAmount) cups") } } } '''

Appreciate any thoughts/suggestions

You should go with a Localizable.stringsdict.

You don't need necessarily more than one language for this.

Thanks for the link.

Apologies, but after reading through it, I am as lost as before as have little to no idea as to how to incorporate it in the code I wrote.

I am having great dificulty in relating it to the Picker code that I wrote, and am sensing that I need to write a completely new code, rather than amending the code I wrote.

thanks for the guidance.

will work on trying to implement stringsdict.

at the end of the day, as someone faily new to SwiftUI, and not grasping stringsdict, I find Stepper far easier as I can use if/else clauses much in the same way as when I wrote python programs.
