iOS 14's bizarre text casing behaviour in List headings
05 Aug 2020
Here’s a SwiftUI list with a section header:
List {
Section(header: Text("Hello world")) {
...
}
}
In iOS 13, this appeared like you’d expect:
Rebuild this with the iOS 14 SDK, and everything is forced to uppercase:
This is… kind of annoying. I think it’s intentional, as it’s still present up to beta 4. If only it were documented somewhere so we’d know for sure if it’s intentional or a bug to be fixed later.
Anyway, the workaround is easy:
List {
Section(header: Text("Hello world").textCase(nil)) {
...
}
}
BRB, I’m off to add .textCase(nil)
to about 100 different places in my codebase.
