this is really late but I got here because my previews are crashing (for some other reason) The reason this one is crashing is because the second call to padding is missing the period before it. So padding() is simply a call to the padding() function on ContentView, which causes infinite recursion. The .padding() modifier should be applied to the second HStack.

what values are you comparing? The var decibels returned by audioRecorder.peakPower, or your own self.decibels? The value returned by AVAudioRecorder is already in units of dB. It is a relative power, not amplitude measurement. So if you expect your noise to be at 80dB below full scale, its power is at 40dB below full scale. So you might expect decibels to have a value of around -40. I don't think you should be converting twice. Also, you're using the a dB conversion formula appropriate for amplitude, not power. pow(10, (-40/20)) is equal to 0.01, which is of the order of magnitude you are seeing. Your other measurements (20dB "silence", 50dB "noise") appear to be amplitude measurements relative to some stable (low) level.

Have you looked into XPC, NSTask, NSRunningApplication and searched for "SwiftUI app lifecycle"? If things are getting complicated, have you reconsidered using a command line app (i.e. what are you trying to do?)

AVCaptureDeviceDiscoverySession from AVCaptureDevice.h is your friend here.

You haven't shown the errors messages. Show what you've tried, what you expected to happen, what actually happened. Please post code as text (formatted as a code block), it makes it easier for us to quote later - screenshots are only useful for graphics. From the screenshot "makePieChart" creates an instance of a PieChartView named pieChartView". Which suggests there is some code somewhere which calls makePieChart and names the resulting view, like this: let pieChartView = makePieChart() "PieChartView has one property named wedges, an array of PieWedgeInstances. Assign an array pieChartView.wedges = [ PieWedge(proportion: 3, color: .black, scale: 0.5, offset: 0.5), PieWedge(proportion: 3, color: .black, scale: 0.5, offset: 0.5), PieWedge(proportion: 3, color: .red) ] or use the append method of Array to add them one at a time pieChartView.wedges.append(PieWedge(proportion: 3, color: .black, scale: 0.5, offset: 0.5)) pieChartView.wedges.append(PieWedge(proportion: 3, color: .black, scale: 0.5, offset: 0.5)) pieChartView.wedges.append(PieWedge(proportion: 3, color: .red) I hope this helps. Stick at it!

nullmc - yes, I've encountered this situation. Only numbers, data and strings are supported. Arrays and dictionaries are not.

please re-post your code inside a code block (use the formatting tools at the bottom of the text entry field). It is too difficult for anyone to read it formatted this way. Also, tag your post with the platform you are developing for (macOS, iOS, watchOS, iPadOS, tvOS)

I think that before you point the finger at your software, you should user your iPhone 13 with a third-party photo app to see how that phone deals with overexposed images borrow another iPhone 13 and see what it does (with a third-party app, and with your own)

I experimented a bit with this. It looks like the domains listed by defaults domains never go away, even after a restart. defaults delete <domain> and defaults write <domain> { } have the same effect. After execution, defaults read <domain> returns "domain does not exist", and in both cases, is still listed by defaults domains

your view model is publishing an array (a random access collection of artworks), but your ArtworkGridView declares a single var artwork: Artwork . You're asking ForEach to iterate over something that isn't a collection.

what is the question here? You can file bugs using Feedback Assistant.

maybe the domain isn't quite what you expect it to be. Have you tried grepping the output of "defaults domains" to see if this is the case?

You might get more help asking where people are using VSCode. Most of the folks on this Apple forum are using tools provided by Apple, while you're asking about a problem with a Microsoft tool. Have you set up your VSCode correctly for C++? See https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/cpp/config-clang-mac.

If Xcode itself is crashing, file a bug, this will tell you how. https://developer.apple.com/bug-reporting/ If your program is crashing, and you want help on this forum, you'll want to post relevant code samples, after you've gone some way to investigate the problem yourself.

change your text in the CardView from Text(content) .font(.largeTitle) to Text(content) .font(.largeTitle).frame(maxHeight: .infinity) embarrassingly, I can't remember why that does the trick.
