Below is the code I wrote for dragging a rectangle. I would like to restrict its dragging to be within the border of the view given. ie if the user tries to move the rectangle outside the border of the view, it should stay within the border edges. I tried using GeometryReader to get the rect of both the rectangle and the outer view, but I am unable to restrict the drag. Please help.
import SwiftUI
struct DragView: View {
@State private var currentPosition: CGSize = .zero
@State private var newPosition: CGSize = .zero
@State private var parentRect: CGRect = .zero
@State private var childRect: CGRect = .zero
var body: some View {
VStack {
Rectangle().frame(width: 100, height: 100, alignment: .top)
.foregroundColor(.blue)
.offset(x: self.currentPosition.width, y: self.currentPosition.height)
.background(GeometryGetter(rect: $childRect))
.gesture(
DragGesture(minimumDistance: 0, coordinateSpace: .global)
.onChanged { value in
self.currentPosition = CGSize(width: value.translation.width + self.newPosition.width, height: value.translation.height + self.newPosition.height)
}
.onEnded { value in
self.currentPosition = CGSize(width: value.translation.width + self.newPosition.width, height: value.translation.height + self.newPosition.height)
self.newPosition = self.currentPosition
}
)
}
.frame(width: 300, height: 500, alignment: .center)
.border(Color.black, width: 1)
.background(GeometryGetter(rect: $parentRect))
}
}
struct GeometryGetter: View {
@Binding var rect: CGRect
var body: some View {
GeometryReader { geometry in
Group { () -> AnyView in
DispatchQueue.main.async {
self.rect = geometry.frame(in: .global)
}
return AnyView(Color.clear)
}
}
}
}
