How to disable the overlay color for images inside Button and NavigationLink
Updated for Xcode 12.0
By default, an image drawn inside a NavigationLink or a Button will almost certainly not behave as you expect: the whole image will be be covered with an opaque blue color, or whatever accent color you have in your view.
There are two ways you can fix this; which you choose depends on the behavior you want.
First, you can use the buttonStyle() modifier with PlainButtonStyle(), like this:
NavigationView {
NavigationLink(destination: Text("Detail view here")) {
Image("YourImage")
}
.buttonStyle(PlainButtonStyle())
}Or like this for plain buttons:
Button(action: {
// your action here
}) {
Image("YourImage")
}
.buttonStyle(PlainButtonStyle())With that modifier in place, your original image will be visible as you expected.
As an alternative, you can also use the renderingMode() mode modifier to achieve a slightly different result:
NavigationView {
NavigationLink(destination: Text("Detail view here")) {
Image("YourImage")
.renderingMode(.original)
}
}The difference is subtle, but important: if you are using a Button inside a List, using .buttonStyle(PlainButtonStyle()) will mean that only the space directly around the button’s content can be tapped, whereas if you use .renderingMode(.original) then the whole cell remains tappable.
