Navigation Styling with SwiftUI (original) (raw)

Hi all,

I was aiming to create a similar navigation bar experience like the ones in Apple Music and Books.

Some characteristics they all have:

• Single line navigation title w/ a button (avatar) on the same line
• Displays the system default navigationTitle(.inline) style when scrolled (into safe area?).
• From the scroll bar I deduce that this is some sort of system behavior because the scroll bar does not start from the top of the page but from where the inline navbar appears.

I'm trying to build this with SwiftUI, and I encountered some issues that I can't wrap my head around:

• .navigationTitle combined with .toolbar does not work as they present in a VStack-like view.
• Even with .toolbarTitleDisplayMode(.inlineLarge) and .toolbar these two aren't perfectly horizontal
  
• Build a custom header with HStack and a custom geometry reader reading the global TopInsets and tries to programatically display the inlined version of the navbar causes the scroll bar to behave weird and I don't seem to be able to find a good value for the intersection.

Does anyone know if it's possible to achieve the same result with purely swiftUI? If not, can the same be achieved with UIKit?

Thanks!
