How to make a fixed size Spacer
Fully updated for Xcode 11.2
SwiftUI’s Spacer views automatically fill up all available space on their axis of expansion, which is a fancy way of saying they take up as much space as they can either horizontally or vertically, depending on what you put them in.
If you want to make a spacer of an exact size, just do the same thing you would do for any other kind of view: use a frame() modifier with the exact sizes you want.
For example, this shows two text views, with a 50-point spacer in between them:
VStack {
Text("First Label")
Spacer()
.frame(height: 50)
Text("Second Label")
}If you give the spacer a range of values, for example using .frame(minHeight: 50, maxHeight: 500), then it will automatically take up as much space as it can, up to the maximum you set. Adding some flexibility in this way is usually a good idea, so that your user interfaces scale across devices more easily.
