In my application, I am creating a simple NSMenu with NSMenuItems. The title of the NSMenuItems are adapted to the system language. So, when the system language is an RTL language (right to left), I want my NSMenuItem to be aligned at the right. I can't see anyone talking about this, or any option that could make me achieve that easily. NSMenuItem* item1; NSMenuItem* item2; item1 = [[NSMenuItem alloc] init]; item2 = [[NSMenuItem alloc] init]; item1.title = "foo"; item2.title = "bar"; item1.action = @selector(fooAction); item2.action = @selector(barAction); NSMenu *menu = [[NSMenu alloc] init]; [menu addItem:item1]; [menu addItem:item2];

Hello, I want to make an app that displays the current event(s) (The ones that are ongoing at any given moment) on my Google calendar and shows how far through the event(s) I am with a progress bar, and updates live. I want it to be as simple as possible and don't want it to take up too much space. I have a little window with some text elements and a progress bar that works if you manually put in values. But I still think the window is too big and clunky and I wonder if it's possible to change it's style? I'm a bit inexperienced with coding and am completely new to xcode and swift. What approach would you recommend I take with this project? Or what resources would you refer me to?

This has been an issue since installing the first beta and I haven't seen anyone else say anything about it so I feel like I'm going kind of bonkers. While using Dark Mode, double-tapping to select a word while using the Liquid Glass keyboard, like in Messages or Safari, produces a flashlight-like effect over the text with each tap. While this is a fine animation and pretty helpful when moving the cursor, the brightness of the flashlight effect on white text in Dark Mode makes it impossible to see what you're actually tapping to select. The brightness seems to intensify 100x when rapidly tapping. This is not an issue in Light Mode when the text itself is black. To recreate this, just turn your phone to Dark Mode, go into Messages and type a few words into a thread. Try to double-tap to select a word in the text box. The brightness of the selected word should intensify to the point of being unable to see the word itself. Has anyone been bothered by this? Is there a way to fix or adjust it? I've tried reducing transparency and a bunch of other settings but nothing has worked.

On iOS 26 beta 3, my app and some other apps got greyed out app icon. It only happens in Default (Light) appearance. Apple automatically converts third-party app icons to support Liquid Glass, but is there any specific requirement with third-party icons to avoid above greyed out app icon issue?

While build now I receive this error help me to resolve it Showing Recent Errors Only Prepare build error: Multiple commands produce '/Users/mayankjain/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/PCS_EmpApp-chsylqbxjptobeawzzckymqzagvr/Build/Products/Debug-iphonesimulator/PCS_EmpApp.app/Info.plist' note: Target 'PCS_EmpApp' (project 'PCS_EmpApp') has copy command from '/Users/mayankjain/Documents/05-NOV-2025-SWETA_IOS/PCS_EmpApp/PCS_EmpApp/xcode-out/Platforms/iOS/Info.plist' to '/Users/mayankjain/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/PCS_EmpApp-chsylqbxjptobeawzzckymqzagvr/Build/Products/Debug-iphonesimulator/PCS_EmpApp.app/Info.plist' note: Target 'PCS_EmpApp' (project 'PCS_EmpApp') has process command with output '/Users/mayankjain/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/PCS_EmpApp-chsylqbxjptobeawzzckymqzagvr/Build/Products/Debug-iphonesimulator/PCS_EmpApp.app/Info.plist' Multiple commands produce '/Users/mayankjain/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/PCS_EmpApp-chsylqbxjptobeawzzckymqzagvr/Build/Products/Debug-iphonesimulator/PCS_EmpApp.app/Info.plist'

With the new ios 26 beta 3 helps some stabillty and performance issues but most of the liquid glass has been removed or made very frosty look; and it defeats the whole purpose of a big redesign, and even thought the changes are because of readability and contrast complaints it should not take away liquid glass design. I think apple should consider adding a toggle or choice to choose if they would want a more frosted look or a more liquid glass look the the original plan.

Our application was first published on December 16, 2012, at 11:42 PM, and has been available on the market for 13 years. Over the years, we have implemented hundreds of updates to enhance and refine the app. Our recent updates are rejected for the reason "Guideline 4.3(a) - Design - Spam" warning. How can it be for a 13 years old app. Please advice me what to do. Thanks in advance

Liquid Glass was introduced as a universal design language for all platforms, but isn't supported by visionOS 26 beta. For a small team creating a visionOS app targeted for release in fall 2026, should we focus our design work on Liquid Glass, or for the existing visionOS design language?

https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appstoreconnectapi/devicecreaterequest/data-data.dictionary/attributes-data.dictionary According to the API documentation above, the parameter values for platform can be three: IOS, MAC-OS, and UNIVERSAL. After debugging, it was found that IOS and MAC-OS can be used normally, but UNIVERSAL encountered an error UNIVERSAL' is not a valid value for the attribute 'platform'. Expected one of: 'IOS', 'MAC_OS'， I would like to know if this value has been deprecated or if the API interface requires new version support, and how to use this value! Please help me solve it! thank you!

I would like to propose a design enhancement for future iPhone models: using the existing bottom-right antenna line (next to the power button area) as a capacitive “volume control zone” that supports swipe gestures. Today this line is a structural antenna break, but it is also located exactly where the thumb naturally rests when holding the phone in one hand. With a small embedded capacitive/force sensor, the user could slide their finger along this zone to control volume without reaching for the physical buttons. Why this makes sense: • Perfect ergonomic thumb position in both portrait and landscape • One-handed volume adjustment becomes easier for large-screen devices • Silent and frictionless vs. clicking buttons (useful in meetings / night mode) • Consistent with Apple’s recent move toward contextual hardware input (Action Button, Capture Button, Vision Pro gestures) The interaction model would be: • Swipe up → increase volume • Swipe down → decrease volume • (Optional) long-press haptic = mute toggle This could also enhance accessibility, especially for users with reduced hand mobility who struggle to press mechanical buttons on tall devices. Technically, this would be similar to the Capture Button (capacitive + pressure layers), but linear instead of pressure-based. It does not replace physical buttons, it complements them as a silent gesture-based alternative. Thank you for considering this as a future interaction refinement for iPhone hardware design.

I would like to modify the content of a published LocationNode upon been clicked by the user. But unfortunately: func hitTest(_ point: CGPoint, options: [SCNHitTestOption : Any]? = nil) -> [SCNHitTestResult] returns an SCNNode array from which it is impossible to retrieve the original LocationNode being inserted in order to be able to modify it. Of course the solution would be to either insert the SCNNode corresponding to the inserted LocationNode in a custom class or conversely insert the identifier of the custom object as a tag of the LocationNode, in order to solve the issue. But both options seem impossible to implement. May anyone help me?

I created a data structure based on a dictionary of words. The purpose is to link each word to all other words made up of the same letters plus one. Example: table -> ablate, cablet, tabled, gablet, albeit, albite, etc. For this I built a data model made of three entities: Word, Draw, Link. A Draw is a set of letters corresponding to a Word and sorted in alphabetic order, like : HOUSE -> EHOSU. A Link is a letter that you add to a Draw to get another Draw. So my data model looks like this: And here is how I implemented it in Xcode: Entity Word (let's forget the attribute optComp that plays no role here) Entity Draw Entity Link I am populating the data in two steps: first I read a list of words from a .txt source and I populate the Word entity and at the same time the Draw entity with the corresponding relationship (function loadDic()) This first step apparently works fine. I can easily find all anagrams of any word with something like word.sort.word.spelling I read through the Draw entity. For each draw I seek all existing +1 draws considering each letter of the alphabet. If there are, I create a Link and add the relationships (function createLinks()) Here is where something goes wrong. If the Link's and the relationship Draw.plus seem to be correctly created, the other relationship Link.gives is only partially populated, say 50%. Moreover, I tried to apply an additional routine (updateLinks()) , focusing only on Link's with an empty Link.gives relationship and updating them. But again, only 50% of the nil relationships appear to be populated. I could not find out why those relationships are not properly populated. If someone can help me out I would be grateful. Here is the code: LoadDic() function (OK) : func loadDic() { print("Loading dictionary...") dataAlreadyLoaded.toggle() guard let url = Bundle.main.url(forResource: INPUT_FILE, withExtension: "txt") else { fatalError("\(INPUT_FILE).txt not found") } if let dico = try? String(contentsOf: url, encoding: String.Encoding.utf8 ) { let lines = dico.split(separator: "\r\n") for line in lines { let lineArray = line.split(separator: " ") print("\(lineArray[0])") // word let wordSorted = String(lineArray[0].sorted()) let draw = getDraw(drawLetters: wordSorted) ?? addDraw(drawLetters: wordSorted) // look if draw already exists, otherwise create new one. let wordItem = Word(context: viewContext) // create word entry with to-one-relationship to draw wordItem.spelling = String(lineArray[0]) wordItem.optComp = (Int(String(lineArray[1])) == 1) wordItem.sort = draw do { try viewContext.save() } catch { print("Errort saving ods9: \(error)") } } } print("Ods Chargé") } func addDraw(drawLetters: String) -> Draw { let newDraw = Draw(context: viewContext) newDraw.draw = drawLetters return(newDraw) } func getDraw(drawLetters: String) -> Draw? { let request: NSFetchRequest<Draw> = Draw.fetchRequest() request.entity = Draw.entity() request.predicate = NSPredicate(format: "draw == %@", drawLetters) do { let drw = try viewContext.fetch(request) return drw.isEmpty ? nil : drw[0] } catch { print("Erreur recherche Tirage") return nil } } createLinks() function (NOK): func createLinks() { var erreur = " fetch request <Draw>" let request: NSFetchRequest<Draw> = Draw.fetchRequest() request.entity = Draw.entity() request.predicate = NSPredicate(value: true) print("Building relationships...") do { let draws = try viewContext.fetch(request) count = draws.count for draw in draws { print("\(count) - \(draw.draw!)") linkTable.removeAll() for letter in ALPHABET { print(letter) let drawLettersPlus = String((draw.draw! + String(letter)).sorted()) // draw with one more letter if let drawPlus = draws.first(where: { $0.draw == drawLettersPlus }) { // look for Draw entity that matches augmented draw let linkItem = Link(context: viewContext) // if found, create new link based on letter with relationship to augmented draw linkItem.letter = String(letter) linkItem.gives = drawPlus erreur = " saving \(draw.draw!) + \(letter)" try viewContext.save() linkTable.append(linkItem) // saves link to populate the one-to-many relationship of the initial draw, once the alphabet is through } } let drawUpdate = draw as NSManagedObject // populate the one-to-many relationship of the initial draw let linkSet = Set(linkTable) as NSSet drawUpdate.setValue(linkSet, forKey: "plus") erreur = " saving \(draw.draw!) links plus" try viewContext.save() count -= 1 // next draw } } catch { print("Error " + erreur) } print("Graph completed") } updateLinks function (NOK): func updateLinks() { var erreur = "fetch request <Link>" let request: NSFetchRequest<Link> = Link.fetchRequest() request.entity = Link.entity() print("Running patch...") do { request.predicate = NSPredicate(format: "gives == nil") let links = try viewContext.fetch(request) for link in links { let baseDraw = link.back!.draw! print("\(baseDraw) \(link.letter!)") let augmDrawLetters = String((baseDraw + link.letter!).sorted()) if let augmDraw = getDraw(drawLetters: augmDrawLetters) { viewContext.perform { let updateLink = link as NSManagedObject updateLink.setValue(augmDraw, forKey: "gives") erreur = " saving \(augmDraw.draw!) \(link.letter!)" do { try viewContext.save() } catch { print("Erreur mise à jour lien") } } } } } catch { print("Error " + erreur) } } RESULT And this is the output showing the content of the Draw entity with relationships after createLinks() is applied: And here after updateLinks() is applied :

Hello Apple Engineering Team and Fellow Developers, I’ve been using iOS 26 beta from day one and closely following all its improvements. One feature that significantly enhances the user experience is the automatic hiding of the Home Bar (the bottom navigation indicator) after a few seconds of inactivity in menus and apps. This subtle but powerful UI behavior not only increases immersion but also reduces distractions, making navigation smoother and visually cleaner. I strongly urge the Apple team to integrate this feature into the upcoming iOS 18.6 update. Bringing this polished interaction to iOS 18 users would greatly improve usability and keep the interface modern and elegant. Thank you for your continuous efforts in refining iOS. Looking forward to seeing this improvement officially adopted soon! Best regards, [ERFANEX]

Hi community my name is Adam Robles. I have a question. I recently downloaded the beta on my iPad Pro 13 inch and I noticed where are the iPad wallpapers I only get one wallpaper, but where what happened to the wallpaper that was released with iPad last year

When we are going to have a real analog clock option on the lock screen. If an apple watch can do it surely its not that difficult. For someone who uses a clock to tell what time it isn't as opposed to what time it is, i’m constantly having to convert a digital image where the image of hands on a dial is so much easier. Surely this isnt because someone has forgotten how to read a clock

Hello, You are developing iOS 26. I hope you will fix the issue where the AṀ/PM is missing from the Time Display. Thanks

Prior to iOS 26, this successfully gave me a modal view with a transparent background: let settingsVC = MySettingsViewController() settingsVC.modalPresentationStyle = .automatic //settingsVC.modalPresentationStyle = .overCurrentContext self.present(settingsVC, animated: true, completion: { } MySettingsViewController: self.view.backgroundColor = UIColor(white: 0, alpha: 0.5) Now in iOS 26, modal view is presented in a opaque grey background.

The bane of my existence has been designing interfaces where the whole view needs to scroll, but a portion is a List and the other portion is static. I run into this problem time and again so I was hoping someone has a good solution because we all know that embedding a List view inside ScrollView is a no-go within SwiftUI. It simply doesn't work. So what is a best practice when you need the whole screen to scroll, but a portion is a List? Use a navigation stack instead of a ScrollView? What if it's a child view of a navigation stack already?

Hello everyone! The Swift Student Challenge officially starts tomorrow (February 3rd), and I have a question. Am I allowed to use tools like Photoshop to create artwork for my project? I’d appreciate any clarification. Thanks in advance!

I downloaded iOS 26 beta 3. I was very happy with how it turned out, but when I activated Siri, I noticed the rainbow pulsing glow that bordered the phone was missing, and all that was left was the original Siri bubble. I was very disappointed, does anyone know how to get this back? I loved that design feature.
