In SwiftUI, you can enable text selection by using the textSelection
modifier on a Text
view.
Here's an example code snippet that demonstrates how to let users select text:
import SwiftUI
struct ContentView: View {
@State private var isTextSelectable = false
var body: some View {
VStack {
Text("Hello, World!")
.textSelection($isTextSelectable)
.padding()
Button(action: {
isTextSelectable.toggle()
}) {
Text(isTextSelectable ? "Disable Text Selection" : "Enable Text Selection")
.padding()
}
}
}
}
struct ContentView_Previews: PreviewProvider {
static var previews: some View {
ContentView()
}
}
In this example, we create a Text
view with the initial value of "Hello, World!". We use the textSelection
modifier on the Text
view and bind it to the isTextSelectable
state variable.
To control the text selection, we add a Button
below the Text
view. When the button is tapped, it toggles the isTextSelectable
state variable, which in turn enables or disables the text selection.
By default, text selection is disabled in SwiftUI, so you need to explicitly enable it using the textSelection
modifier.
