How to create a toolbar and add buttons to it
Updated for Xcode 13.0
SwiftUI’s toolbar() modifier lets us place bar button items anywhere in the top or bottom space, but only when our view is embedded inside a NavigationView.
If you want to place buttons into a toolbar at the bottom of the screen, use toolbar() then create a ToolbarItem with the placement of .bottomBar, like this:
NavigationView {
Text("Hello, World!").padding()
.navigationTitle("SwiftUI")
.toolbar {
ToolbarItem(placement: .bottomBar) {
Button("Press Me") {
print("Pressed")
}
}
}
}To get more than one button, use ToolbarItemGroup instead of a simple ToolbarItem, then place multiple buttons inside there:
NavigationView {
Text("Hello, World!").padding()
.navigationTitle("SwiftUI")
.toolbar {
ToolbarItemGroup(placement: .bottomBar) {
Button("First") {
print("Pressed")
}
Button("Second") {
print("Pressed")
}
}
}
}If you want to separate buttons inside a ToolbarItemGroup, add a spacer view wherever you want it. For example, this will place one button on the left edge of the toolbar, and one on the right edge:
NavigationView {
Text("Hello, World!").padding()
.navigationTitle("SwiftUI")
.toolbar {
ToolbarItemGroup(placement: .bottomBar) {
Button("First") {
print("Pressed")
}
Spacer()
Button("Second") {
print("Pressed")
}
}
}
}
