Reply to Stage Manager on iPadOS Xcode Simulator
I was able to force this on the simulator by modifying the .GlobalPreferences.plist file If you navigate to your simulator directory ~/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices/<SIMULATORID>/data/Library/Preferences/ There is a hidden file named .GlobalPreferences.plist Make a backup of this file and convert it to XML $ cd ~/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices/<SIMULATORID>/data/Library/Preferences/ $ cp ./.GlobalPreferences.plist ./.GlobalPreferences.plist.orig $ plutil -convert xml1 ./.GlobalPreferences.plist The file should look something like this <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>AppleLanguages</key> <array> <string>en</string> </array> <key>AppleLocale</key> <string>en_US</string> </dict> </plist> Add the following inside the <dict></dict> section <key>SBChamoisWindowingEnabled</key> <true/> Then convert back to binary $ plutil -convert binary1 ./.GlobalPreferences.plist Now start your simulator and Stage Manager should be enabled Worked for me on Beta 3 iPad 11 3rd gen sim Credit goes to https://twitter.com/KhaosT/status/1533928828753481729 https://itnext.io/you-dont-need-gui-or-how-to-control-ios-simulator-from-command-line-bf5cfa60aed2

Reply to UISplitViewController embedded in UITabBarController behaves strange in iOS 14
I submitted a bug report for this and have the same issue on Beta 3 but not Beta 2. It appears to be inappropriately setting the horizontal trait collection to compact if a UISplitViewController is inside a UITabBarController. In fact if you override the getter for the traitCollection (which you're not technically supposed to do) on the splitviewcontroller and pass the parent traitCollection from the tabbarcontroller most of the problems go away aside from a few visual glitches with navigation bar title positioning.

Reply to Implementing a Calendar-style sidebar
I was able to get something working using UISplitViewControllerDelegate and including the function below. You'll also need to set splitViewController?.presentsWithGesture = false to disable the automatic button assignment     func splitViewController(_ svc: UISplitViewController, willChangeTo displayMode: UISplitViewController.DisplayMode) {         let pvc = (svc.viewController(for: .secondary) as? UINavigationController)?.topViewController         if let addButton = self.addButton, let backtimeButton = self.backtimeButton, let sidebarButton = self.sidebarButton, let sidebarButtonOn = self.sidebarButtonOn {             switch displayMode {             case .oneBesideSecondary, .oneOverSecondary:                 pvc?.navigationItem.setLeftBarButtonItems([], animated: true)                 navigationItem.setLeftBarButtonItems([addButton, backtimeButton, sidebarButtonOn], animated: true)             default:                 pvc?.navigationItem.setLeftBarButtonItems([addButton, backtimeButton, sidebarButton], animated: true)                 navigationItem.setLeftBarButtonItems([], animated: true)             }         }     } This does not animate as nicely as the Calendar app, I too would be curious how the official solution is implemented. The toggle button they use to show/hide the sidebar is also somewhat challenging to reproduce as the UIBarButtonItem doesn't have the option to set as selected like a standard UIButton. This solution does at least seem to transfer the buttons to the sidebar when appropriate like the calendar app.
