To make a view full width, you can use the following methods depending on the context of your application:
-
Ignoring Safe Area in SwiftUI: In SwiftUI, you can make a view extend to the edges of the screen by ignoring the safe area. This can be done using the
.edgesIgnoringSafeArea(.all)
modifier. Here's an example from the session "Migrate your TVML app to SwiftUI":ScrollView { Image("background") .resizable() .edgesIgnoringSafeArea(.all) }
This ensures that the image extends to the very edges of the screen. For more details, you can refer to the session Migrate your TVML app to SwiftUI (09:15).
-
Using Fullscreen API for Web Content: If you are working with web content and want to make an element fullscreen, you can use the Fullscreen API. This is particularly useful for spatial photos and videos. You can trigger fullscreen mode using the
requestFullscreen
method on the element. Here's an example from the session "Optimize for the spatial web":element.requestFullscreen().catch(err => { console.log(`Error attempting to enable full-screen mode: ${err.message} (${err.name})`); });
This method needs to be invoked by a user event, like a tap or a click. For more details, you can refer to the session Optimize for the spatial web (10:52).
-
AVPlayer View Controller for Fullscreen Video: For video content, you can use the
AVPlayerViewController
and size it to match the frame of the window scene to make it fullscreen. Here's an example from the session "Build compelling spatial photo and video experiences":let playerViewController = AVPlayerViewController() playerViewController.player = AVPlayer(url: videoURL) playerViewController.view.frame = self.view.bounds self.view.addSubview(playerViewController.view)
This ensures that the video content takes up the entire screen. For more details, you can refer to the session Build compelling spatial photo and video experiences (12:22).
These methods should help you make your view full width depending on the specific context of your application.
