Picker without NavigationView

I don't understand your point (may be because you did not show code).

• Here is a working example of Picker:

struct ContentView: View {
    
    var colors = ["Red", "Green", "Blue", "Tartan"]
    @State private var selectedColor = "Red"
    var body: some View {
        //            VStack {  // I remove VStack voluntarily
        HStack {
            Text("Please choose a color")
            Picker("", selection: $selectedColor) {
                ForEach(colors, id: \.self) {
                    Text($0)
                }
            }
            //                }
            Text("You selected: \(selectedColor)")
        }
    }
}

• If I use a VStack, it works as well:

struct ContentView: View {
    
    var colors = ["Red", "Green", "Blue", "Tartan"]
    @State private var selectedColor = "Red"
    var body: some View {
        VStack {
            HStack {
                Text("Please choose a color")
                Picker("", selection: $selectedColor) {
                    ForEach(colors, id: \.self) {
                        Text($0)
                    }
                }
            }
            Text("You selected: \(selectedColor)")
        }
    }
}

Note : text does not show in Picker

Here what I've figured out:

1. If a picker is inside a Form, it's going to be frozen and not selectable

Form {				
   Picker("Choose a number", selection: $selection) {					
            ForEach(0 ..< data.count, id: \.self) { index in						                  
                 Text(data[index])					
            }				
    }			
}

1. If I wrap this form in a NavigationView, it's going to work perfectly.

NavigationView {			
    Form {				
        Picker("Choose a number", selection: $selection) {					
                 ForEach(0 ..< data.count, id: \.self) { index in						
                      Text(data[index])					
                 }				
         }			
}

However for my current design, I can't have a NavigationView on this View. Is there a solution for that ? Thx

Do you need a Form or not ? You didn't say in your OP.

If you search you will find it is a known bug in SwiftUI.

So, all you can do:

• add a NavigationView
• or file a bug report and wait

Found a solution. Replace the form with ScrollView instead of NavigationView and the picker will work :)
