@samhenrigold there was a time when every icon on your desktop was its own window instance

@Jeehut oh wow, RealityKit, OK. I hadn't come across that one in my travels!

Leaving this open until documentation is added, or the leftover state leak is plugged, as I don't think it is behaving 'correctly' (but it may be as designed)

FB19280994 answered: you have to implement -sizeThatFits on your tab accessory view to have it automatically 'grow' back to a max of 64pt high in a tablet layout. This is not documented.

"This is behaving correctly.

We only have a size constraint when in compact, and the default implementation for sizeThatFits: will return the current size if it fits already. Clients are expected to implement sizeThatFits: to return an expected size."

@forzagaribaldi I know Overcast has a custom audio engine with bespoke AirPlay 2 support, so it could be that apps that use the system audio player trigger the wake behavior. What happens if you AirPlay audio from a stream directly in Safari?

@forzagaribaldi a bit of Googling suggests this behavior should be the same for all third party apps; what apps are you using that don't wake the TV when they AirPlay?

@forzagaribaldi I'm not familiar with the situation, but there's certainly no code I've added that should affect it; AirPlay just happens automatically at the system level

@nemecek_f it isn't the new Tinted mode/setting for Liquid Glass?

Honestly Squid Game: The Challenge, the reality game show, might actually be a better watch than Squid Game itself. Season 2 is just as good as the first season

@nemecek_f helps narrow it down at least; one of the view containers down the tree must have some kind of semi-opaque background, so might as well check them all. Xcode's 3D view debugger mode should help

@nemecek_f if you swap the UIHostingController for a blank UIViewController, what color is the sheet?

Power On: After the iOS 26 overhaul, Apple’s plan for iOS 27 is a Snow Leopard-like year with a major focus on quality versus new features. But there’s one big exception: a lot more AI. Details here — bloomberg.com/news/newsletters

@Dreamwieber so I see! That makes this easier…
