Answer 1

Here's a concise example of my question...

Code Block swiftimport SwiftUI
@main
struct DocumentApp: App {
    var body: some Scene {
        DocumentGroup(newDocument: DocumentDocument()) { file in
            ContentView(document: file.$document)
        }
    }
}
struct ContentView: View {
    @Binding var document: DocumentDocument
    var body: some View {
        VStack {
            Button(action: {
                // TODO: Dismiss ContentView and show DocumentGroup browser
            }) {
                Text("Close")
            }
            TextEditor(text: $document.text)
        }
    }
}

Also of note here is that the following code doesn't dismiss the view and the isPresented property is false in the ContentView presented by the DocumentGroup.

Code Block swift	@Environment(\.presentationMode) var presentationMode
	struct ContentView: View {
	    var body: some View {
				Button(action: {
					self.presentationMode.wrappedValue.dismiss()
				}) {
					Text("Dismiss")
				}
			}
	}

This seems to work, but I'm not sure how brittle it is:

Code Block swiftfor window in UIApplication.shared.windows where window.isKeyWindow {
    window.rootViewController?.dismiss(animated: true, completion: nil)
    break
}
