Hi,

with the previous beta all navigation links place within a toolbar like

Code Block swiftview.toolbar {
	ToolbarItem(placement: .navigationBarTrailing) {
		NavigationLink(destination: SearchView()) {
			Label("Search", systemImage: "magnifyingglass").font(.title2)
		}
	}
}

stopped working. Buttons still worked though. As a temporary solution I placed on my toolbar items into a Menu like

Code Block swiftview.toolbar {
	ToolbarItem(placement: .navigationBarTrailing) {
		Menu {
			NavigationLink(destination: SearchView()) {
				Label("Search", systemImage: "magnifyingglass").font(.title2)
			}
		} label: {
			Image(systemName: "ellipsis.circle").imageScale(.large)
		}
	}

Now, in beta 5 this has stopped working as well. Again buttons still work and placing navigation links outside of the navigation bar works as well.

Does anyone else have this issue?

This appears to work

Code Block struct ContentView: View {
    var body: some View {
        NavigationView {
            Text("Hello, world!")
                .padding()
                .toolbar {
                    ToolbarItem(placement: .navigationBarTrailing) {
                        NavigationLink(
                            destination: Text("Destination"),
                            label: {
                                Label("Search", systemImage: "magnifyingglass")
                            })
                    }
                }
        }
    }
}

Yes, I have the same problem.

No solution other than placing every single item in the navigation bar instead of a Menu.
