I need some suggestions on presenting a segmented picker in Swift UI.
It is to display distinct time ranges (<15min, <30min, <45min) all the way to 120min.
It ends up being 8 segments. I am really not a fan of the scrolling picker as it not in theme what what I am looking for in presentation.
The problem with how it stands now is that the time unit is cut off with each segment showing "15.." and doesn't look clean.
I have put the segmented picker in a horizontal scroll view which looks okay but the user may not know to scroll.
One option I used but can't get to work out is splitting the one long segment into 2 separate views.
The problem is the user can select a segment from either pickers which is not what I want.
What I want is if the user selects one picker, the other one is not selectable or vice versa.
I have been messing with some formatting options, so please ignore that.
Is this possible?
Thanks is advance!
struct ContentView: View {
var body: some View {
VStack{
To60min()
To120min()
.foregroundColor(Color.red)
}
}}
struct ContentView_Previews: PreviewProvider {
static var previews: some View {
ContentView()
}}
struct To60min: View {
@State private var selectedTimeRangeto60 = ""
@State private var timeRangesTo60 = ["15min", "30min", "45min", "60min"]
var body: some View {
Picker("", selection: $selectedTimeRangeto60) {
ForEach(timeRangesTo60, id: \.self) {
Text($0)
}
}
.frame(width: .infinity, height: 75)
.background(.gray)
.padding()
.pickerStyle(.segmented)
.contrast(22.0)
}
}
struct To120min: View {
@State private var selectedTimeRangeto120 = ""
@State private var timeRangesTo120 = ["75min", "90min", "105min", "120min"]
var body: some View {
Picker("", selection: $selectedTimeRangeto120) {
ForEach(timeRangesTo120, id: \.self) {
Text($0)
}
}
.padding()
.pickerStyle(.segmented)
.contrast(22)
}
}

For anything more than 3-4 items (depending on label length), I would switch from a .segmented
to .menu
picker style. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/swiftui/pickerstyle
