Apple today seeded the seventh beta of the upcoming macOS 14 Sonoma update to developers for testing purposes. The beta comes a week after the launch of the sixth beta.
Registered developers can download the beta through the Apple Developer Center and after the appropriate profile is installed, with the betas available through the Software Update mechanism in System Settings.
macOS Sonoma introduces new Apple TV-like screen savers that also serve as wallpapers after you log in, plus it moves widgets to the desktop. You can use the new widget gallery to choose from a range of widgets, and then drag them to your Mac's desktop.
Widgets can be arranged in any way that's useful, and when you're using an app, they are designed to fade into the background so they're less distracting. Widgets are more interactive than before, so you can use them to do things like play music, turn off the lights in your home, and more. Through Continuity, your iPhone's widgets can also show up on your Mac's desktop.
Video conferencing has improved with a new Presenter Overlay view that shows your desktop or project in new ways, plus Safari now supports web apps for the Dock and the option to create Profiles so you can separate personal browsing from work browsing.
Other new features include improved search that's faster and more responsive, password and passkey sharing, a revamped stickers interface for the Messages app, PDF integration in notes that makes it easier than ever to manage PDFs, and more.
macOS Sonoma will be in beta testing for several months, with a public release coming this fall.

[HEADING=3]Resolved Issues ('https://developer.apple.com/documentation/macos-release-notes/macos-14-release-notes#Resolved-Issues')[/HEADING]
* Fixed: *Catalyst Optimized for Mac:
* SwiftUI ToolbarContent in Catalyst apps Optimized for Mac was previously bridged into the Mac toolbar (NSToolbar) dependent on whether the view containing the toolbar content filled the entire scene (width and height matched within a small floating point margin). In macOS 14.0 and later, toolbar content is now bridged into the Mac toolbar if the heights approximately match and only the leading edge aligns with the scene’s leading edge. In practice this might change a Catalyst app that had two NavigationStacks side by side with toolbar content. Prior to macOS 14.0, neither stack would have its toolbar content bridged into the Mac toolbar and all toolbar content would be in the toolbar of the NavigationStacks themselves. On and after macOS 14.0, the leading stack will have its toolbar content bridged, while the trailing stack’s content will stay in the stack’s toolbar. (108519092)

Exceptions can be made using NSExceptionDomains ('https://developer.apple.com/documentation/bundleresources/information_property_list/nsapptransportsecurity/nsexceptiondomains'), which now supports exceptions for individual IP addresses and ranges specified in classless inter-domain routing (CIDR) notation. (101967030)
* Fixed: For apps linked on or after iOS 17 beta, macOS 14 beta, watchOS 10 beta, and tvOS 17 beta, the Transfer-Encoding header field of a streamed HTTP/1 request is set to chunked instead of Chunked. (107390029)

[HEADING=3]New Features ('https://developer.apple.com/documentation/macos-release-notes/macos-14-release-notes#New-Features')[/HEADING]
* Users have access to the new Product.SubscriptionInfo.Status.all sequence to get the status for each of your app’s subscription groups. One can use the new subscriptionStatusproperty on the latest Transaction ('https://developer.apple.com/documentation/macos-release-notes/%EF%BB%BFhttps://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/transaction') value for a subscription to access the full status information. (102064614)
* StoreKit 2 now provides a collection of UI components to help merchandise in-app purchases. Use ProductView, StoreView and SubscriptionStoreView to add in-app purchases to an app with just a few lines of code. (102066107)
* Users can access in-app purchase product metadata and entitlement information from a SwiftUI view using new view modifier APIs in StoreKit. Declare a view as dependent on a single product or collection of products using storeProductTask(for:priority:action:) or storeProductsTask(for:priority:action:) respectively. Declare a view as dependent on the current entitlement for a product using currentEntitlementTask(for:priority:action:). Declare a view as dependent on the status of a subscription group with subscriptionStatusTask(for:priority:action:). All of the modifiers will start a task to load the data before the view appears, and provide your action with the state of the task as it progresses and whenever the data changes. (102397222)
* User have access to the new groupLevel property of Product.SubscriptionInfo ('https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/product/subscriptioninfo') to understand the level of service of a subscription plan. (103885148)
* Users have access to the new reason, and storefront properties on Transaction ('https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/transaction') to understand the reason why the transaction was created, and which storefront it is for. The new renewalDateproperty on RenewalInfo ('https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/product/subscriptioninfo/renewalinfo') to understand if and when a subscription will renew next. (104246730)
* Users have access to new groupDisplayName property of Product.SubscriptionInfo ('https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/product/subscriptioninfo') to get the localized display name of a subscription plan’s group. (105689964)
* The subscriptionStoreControlBackground(_:) ('https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/subscriptionstorecontrolbackground') view modifier is available when using StoreKit and SwiftUI. Use this modifier to set the background behind controls in SubscriptionStoreView ('https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/subscriptionstoreview')instances within a view to a gradient material effect, or any shape style. (105690554)
* The productViewIconBorder() ('https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/automaticproductplaceholdericon/4278999-producticonborder') view modifier is available when using StoreKit and SwiftUI. Use this modifier on the icons to provide ProductView ('https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/productview') and StoreView ('https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/storeview') to add a standard border around the icon. (106649532)
* You can now customize the button style used for purchase and subscribe buttons in ProductView ('https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/productview'), StoreView ('https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/storeview') and SubscriptionStoreView ('https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/subscriptionstoreview') instances. Use the buttonStyle(_:) ('https://developer.apple.com/documentation/swiftui/view/buttonstyle(_:)-7qx1') view modifier to choose any standard button style, or a custom button style. (107713282)
* StoreKit ViewsProductView and StoreView have initializers have initializers that give you access to the promotional icon as a SwiftUI view and the various phases of the loading operation. Use initializers such as init(id:icon:placeholderIcon:) ('https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/productview/4202217-init'), [init(_:icon:)](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/productview/4202214-init), init(ids:icon:placeholderIcon:)](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/storeview/4203378-init), and [init(products:icon:)` ('https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/storeview/4203382-init') to provide an icon view for each phase. (110470147)
* The following StoreKit types are renamed:
• DefaultProductViewStyle is renamed to AutomaticProductViewStyle ('https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/automaticproductviewstyle')
• DefaultSubscriptionStoreMarketingContent is renamed to AutomaticSubscriptionStoreMarketingContent ('https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/automaticsubscriptionstoremarketingcontent')

* Fixed: When testing in the sandbox environment, the groupDisplayName property on Product.SubscriptionInfo ('https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/product/subscriptioninfo') might return an empty string if the localization in the current storefront is not in an approved state. When using the SubscriptionStoreView without providing a marketing content view, the automatic view might show the name of the app instead of the subscription group’s display name. (107206601)
* Fixed the loading animation for StoreView ('https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/storeview') instances displaying a single product. (110414023)

* Enable scrolling in a chart using view modifier chartScrollableAxes(_:). (70444254)
* Use chartXSelection, chartYSelection and chartAngleSelection to enable selection on a chart. If needed, use chartGesture to override the default gesture for selection. (79083764)
* Swift Charts now supports creating pie charts and donut charts using the new SectorMark API. (102309263)
* Pass an AnnotationOverflowResolution to the annotation modifier to specify how to align an annotation when it would otherwise overflow the bounds of the chart or the plot. (106009062)
* Use ChartProxy.plotContainerFrame to obtain the visible portion of the plot in a scrollable chart.

* Fixed a crash with certain combinations of chart content. (105197081)
* Fixed an issue where frequent updates to a chart caused unexpected growth in memory footprint. (107611114)
* Fixed: If major alignment is specified for scroll behavior, scrolling charts always align to the major unit and skip minor units. (107644532)
* Fixed: When a selection gesture goes out of bounds, the selection binding will now be clamped to the nearest data value rather than set to nil. (108398019)
* Fixed: Improved performance and CPU usage for charts with selection bindings. (108954531)
* Fixed: Scrolling charts might behave unexpectedly on right-to-left languages. (109129343)

[HEADING=3]New Features ('https://developer.apple.com/documentation/macos-release-notes/macos-14-release-notes#New-Features')[/HEADING]
* Existing @Query property declarations might not always correctly infer the model type for predicate and sort descriptor parameters. (Note: the @Query attribute is now resolved as a macro, instead of as a property wrapper.)
For example, specifying a filter predicate as a parameter to the @Query attribute will now require explicitly providing the model type used in the predicate, i.e. #Predicate<ModelType> { … }instead of #Predicate { … }:
@Query(filter: #Predicate<Person> { ... }) var people: [Person]
Another example: passing a sort descriptor or key path will now require explicitly providing the model type used for the root type of the key path, i.e. \ModelType.property instead of \.property:
@Query(sort: [SortDescriptor(\Person.name)]) var people: [Person]
@Query(sort: \Person.name) var people: [Person]
In all cases, the model type used in the filter: and sort: parameters is still required to be the same type used as the element in the query’s wrapped array type, and will emit a build error if not. (109433172)

[HEADING=3]New Features ('https://developer.apple.com/documentation/macos-release-notes/macos-14-release-notes#New-Features')[/HEADING]
* Adds .accessoryBar and .accessoryBarAction button styles on macOS for buttons used in the context of an accessory toolbar (sometimes referred to as a “scope bar”).
Buttons of the .accessoryBar style typically narrow the focus of a search or other operation.
Buttons of the .accessoryBarAction style perform extra actions releative to the accessory toolbar’s main functions, like adding or editing filters.
Both styles affect other view types that you can apply a button style to, like Toggle, Picker, and Menu, in addition to Button. (44351471)
* Bordered buttons on macOS now support flexibly large heights for larger label sizes. If the label has no preferred size or a small size, the button will be the standard macOS button height. However, if the button label has a larger minimum size, the button will also now grow larger instead of clipping the label. (56652012)
* Adds new view modifiers to customize alerts and other dialogs within a view.
* Use dialogIcon(_:) to customize the icon. In macOS, this icon replaces the default icon of the app. This modifier has no effect in other platforms.
* Use dialogSeverity(_:) to set the severity of confirmation dialogs and alerts, which can help indicate that extra care should be taken when choosing a particular action in the dialog.
* Use dialogSuppressionToggle to enable user supression of dialogs and alerts in macOS. (62920817)
* RoundedRectangle now defaults to the continuous corner style. (63246947)
* .onChange has new overloads where the closure takes 0 or 2 arguments, these new versions will call the new version of the closure (i.e. after the specified value has changed), so any captured properties will have up to date values. The previous overload (which calls the old version of the closure) has been deprecated. (67344857)
* Spring animations will now default to being critically damped (i.e. a bounce of 0). (75149732)
* Scenes in Catalyst now support the windowResizability modifier. (84203422)
* Added support for dialogSeverity in Catalyst applications. (95918809)
* Use the springLoadingBehavior(_:) view modifier to control spring loading behavior of views.
Some views, like TabView, default to allowing spring loading, while others, like Button, do not.
Spring loading refers to a view being activated during a drag and drop interaction. On iOS this can occur when pausing briefly on top of a view with dragged content. On macOS this can occur with similar brief pauses or on pressure-sensitive systems by “force clicking” during the drag. (96569875)
* Lists using the SidebarListStyle hosted in primary column of a UIKit UISplitNavigationController were previously rendering with an insetGrouped appearance. With this change they will render as the expected sidebar appearance similar to if the List were hosted in a SwiftUI NavigationSplitView. (96909195)
* The toolbar and navigationTitle modifiers now work outside of the SwiftUI App Lifecycle on macOS. Use NSHostingView.sceneBridgingOptions to enable or disable this functionality. (101092365)
* The SceneStorage dynamic property now works when using an NSHostingView, provided the view and its window have been configured for state restoration via AppKit. See NSUserInterfaceItemIdentification and NSWindowRestoration for more information regarding state restoration in AppKit. (101097013)
* DismissAction can now be used to programmatically close an NSWindow when its contentView is an NSHostingView. (101097410)
* ProgressView labels can be hidden with the labelsHidden view modifier. (101517619)
* The badge view modifier now works on views within a menu in macOS. Use a badge to convey optional, supplementary information about a menu item. (102025014)
* Use the buttonRepeatBehavior(_:) view modifier to make buttons repeatedly trigger their actions on prolonged interactions. Apply this to buttons that increment or decrement a value or perform some other inherently iterative operation. Interactions such as pressing-and-holding on the button, holding the button’s keyboard shortcut, and holding down the space key while the button is focused trigger this repeat behavior. (102156410)
* Animation.default now uses a spring animation equivalent to Animation.spring. In addition, Animation.default is now only equal to itself when using ==, allowing users to differentiate between animations that were intentionally chosen and those that use the default animation. (103169056)
* During gesture change callbacks, velocity will automatically be tracked so that it can be applied to animations that finish when the gesture finishes. (103371523)
* View.focusable() now opts in to keyboard focus whether or not keyboard navigation is enabled in System Settings. For the previous behavior, pass .activate for the modifier’s interactionsargument. (104616966)
* When two Text are vertically adjacent (for example in a VStack with no spacer in between) SwiftUI will automatically calculate appropriate spacing. To opt-out if this behavior either place a Spacer or specify spacing parameter to the container view. (104782785)
* For apps built using the macOS 14 SDK, using DismissAction to close a window will default to using DismissBehavior.interactive. (105406945)
* When an NSHostingView is the contentView of an NSWindow, its sceneBridgingOptionsproperty will default to .all, unless otherwise specified. (106216343)
* When using @Environment(\.self) to capture an entire EnvironmentValues, SwiftUI will now track which properties are accessed to only invalidate the property when those properties change. (106310433)
* Use the new navigationDestination(item:destination:) overload to present a navigation destination when a bound item is non-nil, or to dismiss the destination when the bound item becomes nil again. (106319528)
* The sidebar toggle toolbar item in NavigationSplitView was moved from over the detail column to over the sidebar column for apps linked on Ventura or later. If the new position is amenable, ensure that items previously in the sidebar column are not inadvertently hidden due to limited space. Either move these items into the detail/content column view builder, or set a minimum width on the sidebar column that allows these items to show with navigationSplitViewColumnWidth(min:ideal:). If the prior behavior is desired, remove the toggle button with toolbar(removing: .sidebarToggle)and place your own sidebar toggle toolbar item. Note that SidebarCommands() is orthogonal to the button.
struct ContentView: View {
@State private var visibility = NavigationSplitViewVisibility.all

(107148514)
* Shapes now default to mirroring when in a right to left layout direction. (107405880)
* Changing from one Gradient value to another will now animate, but only once apps are rebuilt against the new SDK. (107408691)
* All Sections inside List and Table can be configured to be collapsible using new initializers on Section. Previously all Sections inside Lists using the SidebarListStyle received outline disclosure indicators in every header. Section headers will no longer render this control by default. An outline disclosure will only be provided in the header if the Section is initialized with an isExpandedbinding to a bool. This bool represents the isExpanded state of the Section. Sections created with an isExpanded binding inside a Table on macOS will now provide a default outline disclosure indicator to collapse or expand the Section. (107592493)
* The listSectionSpacing modifier can now be used within Lists. (109271050)
* View.onKeyPress(_:action:) can’t filter key presses when bridged controls have focus. (109799056)
* Scenes in Catalyst now support the defaultSize modifier. (110038374)

* Fixed:Menu could not be used with hoverEffect. (67879883)
* Fixed an issue where dynamically enabled buttons (e.g. with a TextField) were not updated in alerts. (95917673)
* Fixed: menuStyle(.button) is compatible with custom button style implementations. Applying a custom buttonStyle on a Menu is supported. (96156722)
* Fixed: DatePicker on macOS now maintains a fixed ideal size instead of filling the width of its container. (98798881)
* Fixed: Scroll environment properties like isScrollEnabled and scrollDismissesKeyboardMode are no longer propagated past nested scroll views. (99195890)
* Fixed: Previously it was possible for views animating their removal via a transition to be drawn above a view with the same zIndex that has not yet been removed. This was unintentional and has now been updated: views transitioning out of the view hierarchy are always drawn below non-removed views with the same zIndex. (101085960)
* Fixed: Table row identifiers in ForEach are now derived from their ForEach identifier rather than the TableRow identifier within the ForEach. In this example, from within a Table:
ForEach(myData) { data in
TableRow(data.someFieldAlsoOfTypeData)
}
the resulting identifiers used by SwiftUI are now data.id rather than data.someFieldAlsoOfTypeData.id. If user needs to restore prior behavior, specify the ID explicitly using the id of the ForEach. (101174261)
* Fixed: Table supports triggering primaryAction of contextMenu with return key. (101194950)
* Fixed: LazyVGrid or LazyHGrid has an improved layout when used with fixedSize(). (103075945)
* Fixed: List and Table on macOS now have visible separators by default, unless unspecified or unless alternating row backgrounds are enabled. Separators can be explicitly hidden using the existing listRowSeparator(.hidden) modifier on the rows views. (103687472)
* Fixed: fileImporter and fileMover view modifiers now require calling URL.startAccessingSecurityScopedResource() before accessing the provided URL, and URL.stopAccessingSecurityScopedResource() when user no longer needs access to a file or directory pointed to by a security-scoped URL. (104448864)
* Fixed: The new .navigationDestination(item:content:) modifier now works correctly both inside a NavigationStack and outside a stack but inside a column of a NavigationSplitView.
Inside a stack, setting the bound item to a non-nil value will push a view onto the stack immediate above the view containing the modifier. Setting the bound item to a nil value will pop the view.
Outside a stack but inside a column of a NavigationSplitView, setting the bound item to a non-nil value will replace the root view of the subsequent column. Setting the bound item to a nil value will restore the original root view. (106106406)
* Fixed: When a flexible frame modifier (e.g. frame(minHeight: 100, maxHeight: 200)) is used inside a scroll view the modified view could end up truncating content. This would most often be visible with the content view being a VStack with multiline text. (107014454)
* Fixed: When scrolling to the end of a scroll view using ScrollViewReader, the final offset will be clamped to the scroll view’s total content size and no longer overscroll. (107558652)
* Fixed: Removed a spurious warning, “NavigationLink presenting a value must appear inside a NavigationContent-based NavigationView. Link will be disabled.” (107877668)
* Fixed: Views in Lists and Lazy Stacks might be improperly displayed after scrolling. (108021411)
* Fixed: Suggested search tokens will be hidden by default when the search text is not empty (108381393)
* Fixed: ScrollView when used with the searchable modifier has an improved transition when presenting or dismissing search on iOS and iPadOS. (109265624)
* Fixed an issue where NSHostingView would not appear when printed using NSPrintOperation. (109412691)
* Fixed: Two NavigationSplitView initializers taking columnVisibility as a value rather than a Binding. (109426553)
* Fixed: macOS under-toolbar/full-height inspectors now behave as presented in the WWDC23 inspector session. Notably the full-height appearance was previously used incorrectly sometimes. (109532401)
* Fixed: Clicking on a button can errantly warn about updating state during a view update. (109610945)
* Fixed: Inspector presentations no longer have an animation glitch. Inspector presentations no longer increase window size on first presentation unless the window is forced to grow larger by navigationSplitColumnWidth modifiers (FB12488754). (111577034)
[HEADING=3]Known Issues ('https://developer.apple.com/documentation/macos-release-notes/macos-14-release-notes#Known-Issues')[/HEADING]
* View.defaultFocus(_:_:) isn’t reliable with text controls. (109750983)
Workaround: Manually update focus state bindings from an action passed to View.onAppear(perform:).
* On iOS, using an Observable object’s property as a selection value of a List inside NavigationSplitView may cause a “Simultaneous accesses to …” error when a list selection is made via tap gesture. (113978783)
Workaround: There is no current workaround for Observable properties. Alternatives include factoring out the selection value into separate state stored outside the object, or using ObservableObjectinstead.

[HEADING=2]SwiftUI Outline ('https://developer.apple.com/documentation/macos-release-notes/macos-14-release-notes#SwiftUI-Outline')[/HEADING]
[HEADING=3]Resolved Issues ('https://developer.apple.com/documentation/macos-release-notes/macos-14-release-notes#Resolved-Issues')[/HEADING]
* Fixed: Leaf views in OutlineGroups (those views where the children keyPath argument has a value of nil) are no longer wrapped in implicit HStacks. If relying on an implicit HStack before, users will now see multiple rows when linking against the new SDK.
In this example:
private struct Node: Identifiable {
let id = UUID()
let name: String
let children: [Node]?
}
fileprivate let data = [
Node(name: "One", children: [.init(name: "Two", children: nil)]),
Node(name: "A", children: [
.init(name: "B", children: nil),
.init(name: "C", children: nil),
.init(name: "D", children: nil),
])
]
struct OutlineExample: View {
var body: some View {
List(data) { node in
DisclosureGroup("Node \(node.name)", isExpanded: .constant(true)) {
OutlineGroup(node, children: \.children) { child in
Label("Row:", systemImage: "circle.hexagonpath.fill")
Text("Node \(child.name)")
}
}
}
}
}

* The query rects passed in to -layoutAttributesForElementsInRect: will be more specific to the collection view’s frame, and the rect might intersect with previously queried frames. If subclassing a UIKit vended layout and modifying the frames of elements by applying offsets, make sure that the same offset is applied to the rect passed in to -layoutAttributesForElementsInRect: as well, or the user might see items disappearing when they shouldn’t be.
