How to use a swipe gesture on Apple TV with a Siri remote? SwiftUI Xcode 13

Hello I'm brand new here.  (brand new to code as well for that matter) so I apologize in advance if I'm doing this incorectly or asking a dumb question.

I've created a custom view which I would like to modify based on a swipe gesture on the siri remote.

I've searched for hours to find a solution and cant find anything.

It's incredible to me that there dosen't seem to be a simple default solution for this.

eg:

@State var text: String = "some text"

some view {

Text(text)

  .focusable

  .onSwipe(swipe: .left) {

    text = "new text"

 }

}

// a swipe left on the siri remote results in the text changing from "some text" to "new text"

this is a simplified version of what I would like to accomplish and obviously it doesn’t work.  i'ts ok if the answer is more complicated and less elegant.  I just want some way to achieve the same result

Many thanks in advance for any answers or pointers!
