SwiftUI: Open a full screen View (i.e. hide SideBar) from a NagivationLink

I've been digging through the apple docs for a way to open a View from a NavigationLink where the SideBar is collapsed by default.

Everything I've tried leaves the side bar visible (but collapsible by pressing the sidebar button). I would like the default behaviour to be that the SideBar is not visible.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to achieve this?

Thanks,

Andrew

Solution

  • So it appears that the only way to come close to this (closing the sidebar when an NavLink is clicked in the sidebar) is to attach this to the NavigationView:

    NavigationView {
   ...
}
 .navigationViewStyle(StackNavigationViewStyle())

    While this isn't quite what I was after, using this style I can use an Stack to establish a "Home" view to the right of the NavigationLinks to serve close the the purpose I had in mind.

    I hope that helps someone out there.
