If you want to display an outline in SwiftUI you may use the framework supplied OutlineGroup construct. That’s based on a nested tree of DisclosureGroup and is quite nice. But on appearance of the OutlineGroup all outlines are collapsed. Well, in one of my projects I wanted to display the outline all expanded on show up. No way to do that with OutlineGroup as far as I know. But then I found this nice variant (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/62832809/list-or-outlinegroup-expanded-by-default-in-swiftui) with a control of expansion:

Text Fields in Lists on macOS SwiftUI
Today’s post is a bug report. I’ve sent a developer feed back to Apple already but got no response yet. I don’t know exactly when Apple introduced this bug. But it may well be with the first release of macOS Ventura (13.0) and it’s still not fixed as of macOS 13.4.1.
At that time I’ve noticed that the text fields of one of my macOS Apps got an unintended left padding when included in a List. Here is a very simple test code to demonstrate the problem:
Missing Tiles in MKTileOverlayRenderer
Well, there is a bug in Apple’s MapKit since iOS 13.2, as the folks in developer community say: If you want to use non-Apple maps (e.g. OpenStreetMap®) occasionally tiles are not rendered although you supply the correct data in your sub-class of MKTileOverlayRenderer. There seems to be no obvious systematic but if you scroll around the map you’ll soon find missing tiles. There seems to be no real fix for that problem and your app will not be notified if that happens; the delegate method mapViewDidFinishRenderingMap(mapView:fullyRendered:) will always signal „fullyRendered“ although tiles may be missing.

.fileExporter and .fileImporter Won’t Work inside a Menu in SwiftUI
Recently, I noticed that the newly introduced fileImporter and fileExporter view modifiers in SwiftUI won’t work inside a Menu view. It’s not a big deal to put the file modifiers outside of the menu, but it took quite a while for me to pin down the problem.
Migrating my Website from the Synology WordPress version to the Public One
Well, that was harder than I thought. I was tired of waiting for Synology to update the WordPress version to the current one and started this little project to install the public version of WordPress on my Synology NAS and to migrate my website to that. Couldn’t be too difficult I thought. But it turned out that there were quite some obstacles to overcome; but finally, I succeeded, and I want to share my experiences with you.
