Transition modifier options

There are various options available to us within the basic transition modifier. Let's start by taking a look at them one at a time. I've included direct quotes from the Apple API documentation too (where available):

• .opacity:

A transition from transparent to opaque on insertion and opaque to transparent on removal

.transition(.opacity)

• .scale:

No overview available (but basically transitions the view into another view by scaling to size)

.transition(.scale)

• .identity:

A transition that returns the input view, unmodified, as the output view

.transition(.identity)

• .slide:

A transition that inserts by moving in from the leading edge, and removes by moving out toward the trailing edge

.transition(.slide)
