How do you prevent SwiftUI from autoresizing view when keyboard appears

Question

I have a TextField in my iOS app, and it is positioned such that I don't want it to move when the keyboard appears. However, the view is autoresizing when the keyboard appears. Is there a way to prevent this?

import SwiftUI

struct test: View {
    @State var text: String = ""
    var body: some View {
        TextField("Type", text: self.$text)
    }
}

You can use a modifier to tell a certain view to ignore specific or all iOS safe areas. Apply the following .ignoresSafeArea(.keyboard) to the parent view, and it will not resize when the keyboard is open.

Thanks for this! I had a modal on a modal (I presented a share sheet and the share sheet presented Messages) and my underlying view was getting squished. Putting this on there fixed it! – Nate Lowry Sep 27 '22 at 18:16
