Also interesting fact you won't be able to unsee, different Apple visionOS apps use different search bar corner radii:

Apple TV, Mail: Rounded rectangle
Music, Safari: Capsule/circle

@christianselig seems like Apple devs are well rounded

@christianselig I don’t even have a Vision Pro and this makes me twitch a bit

@christianselig Is one of these a ToolbarItem ?

@christianselig this should be at the tippy top of the DOJ’s case file

@christianselig I've looked into this. I was only able to archive this using UISearchBar (wrapped with UIViewRepresentable) and a ToolbarItem with .principal placement.

@christianselig Something like this https://gist.github.com/petergam/31ffd76ce52df69376fdbed7bf81527d

@petergam Ooo, okay we arrived at a similar solution, I ended up just overlaying it though since I could not seem to get it to work nicely with principal (it kept just shoving it left) https://christianselig.com/2024/03/recreating-visionos-search-bar/

@christianselig Cool, thanks for sharing. I might snap your solution for getting the corner radius right.
I think you can get around the problem of it being shoved to the left when you principal by wrapping it in a HStack with Spacers, but your overlay solution also works.

@christianselig does putting it in the toolbar with principal location work?

christianselig, 2 months ago

@kylebshr No, principal location on visionOS is on the left :(

kylebshr, 2 months ago

@christianselig my guess is UIKit

christianselig, 2 months ago

@kylebshr I'm not even sure how it'd be done in UIKit short of manually placing views in a UIToolbar or something, since there doesn't seem to be an easy way to center things there

@brandon Hmm I don't think anything there pertains to positioning unfortunately
