I'm trying to make a custom SF Symbol. I've made some new custom symbols successfully, combining existing SF Symbols, so I understand the process. But as soon as I use vector files from my previous work, I get the error, "The provided variants are not interpolatable." - even though it has shapes made with vector path.
Template set up - Variable
I use sketch to work on the template
I have separate layers for Ultralight-S, Regular-S, Black-S
File saved as SVG
What is wrong with my template?
Thanks!
When I run SF Symbols, I get a "Fonts Mismatch" error. It claims that newer versions of all the SF-Pro-[Display/Rounded/etc.] family (save the italics ones) are available. The link it sends me to apparently still has the older versions. I've deleted the 'older' versions of the font files and then run the SF-Pro font installer off the downloaded disk image; error just continues to appear.

The weather data from Weather Kit REST API doesn't contain SF Symbol name.
Is there a way to get the SF Symbol name by "conditionCode"?

I'm confused about the SF Pro fonts. Can these be used in our apps?
I tried pasting characters from SF Pro into a label, but was unable to get them to display properly. "SF Pro" doesn't appear in the list of available fonts in Xcode.
If these are not intended to be used by app developers, then what is their purpose?
Are "SF Symbols" different that SF Pro? What about the list of icons that appears in the "Symbols Library" in Xcode? There are so many different sources of symbols and icons, it is very confusing.
If any of these sources is OK to use in an iOS app, is it also OK to export them for use in the event that business needs require me to create an alternate version of my app for some hypothentical non-iOS platform?
Thanks,
Frank

I can't download the symbols for watchOS 19u66 into this link:
https://download.developer.apple.com/Developer_Tools/watchOS_19U66/Watch4_3_19U66.dmg
In thread https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/730103 it was said that it was available, but it isn't.
Anyone can help me?
Thank you in advance!

Hey there!
We use a lot of custom SFSymbols in our app. We found a bug in iOS 17 that images has wrong appearance. Sometimes there are shown only parts of their outline, some symbols are totally filled by system (blue) tint color, so they ignore the default color of resource and also ignoring .tintColor parameter.
But when we use default Apple SF Symbols they work correctly.
Everything works correctly in versions earlier iOS 17 so we want to know is it a bug or we do something wrong?
Example of usage SF in our workspace:
let image = UIImage(named: "*****_critical",
in: Bundle.main,
compatibleWith: nil)?.applyingSymbolConfiguration(UIImage.SymbolConfiguration.preferringMulticolor())
let imageView = UIImageView(image: image)
imageView.contentMode = .scaleAspectFit
imageView.tintColor = myColor
Thanks.

When I try to import a custom SF Symbol exported for XCode 15 and try to import it in Xcode 15 beta (15A5160n), I got the error:
The SVG file provided for the symbol image set 'rings.heart' is not suitable: Template format 5.0 is newer than the version that this software supports (4.0)
Is Xcode 15 Beta not ready yet for Custom SF Symbols 5.0?

Hey guys, just wondering if animated sf symbols will be supported on the web, and if so, what the process for getting that set up looks like.
Thanks so much!

Hi! I was wondering if it is possible to use the replace effect from a custom symbol to a system symbol. I've tried a if/else to switch from an Image with a custom symbol to an Image with a system symbol to no avail. I assume it needs to be the same Image view when transitioning so I think that's my problem, is there something I'm missing?

Will symbol effects that we saw on wwdc sessions come on ios 17 native apps too?
On watchos 10 there are already there in new control center!

I'm currently experimenting with SFSymbol animations for iOS 17.0
I have a custom symbol that I like to animate with the Variable Color effect, and I want to set the colors in code. However, coloring the symbol in code doesn't work. What am I missing?
Image("my-fancy-custom-symbol")
.symbolRenderingMode(.multicolor)
.foregroundStyle(.white, .yellow)
.symbolEffect(.variableColor, options: .repeating)

Hi,
I'm creating a SF Symbols image like this:
var img = UIImage(systemName: "x.circle" ,withConfiguration: symbolConfig)!.withTintColor(.red)
In the debugger the image is really red.
and I'm using this image to create a SKTexture:
let shuffleTexture = SKTexture(image: img)
The texture image is ALWAYS black and I have no idea how to change it's color. Nothing I've tried so far works.
Any ideas how to solve this?
Thank you!
Best Regards,
Frank

Has anyone paid a graphics designer to produce custom SF Symbols for them? Would you care to share your experiences?
I paid for some custom graphics a decade ago; the results were OK but not amazing. I forget how I found that guy. No doubt everything has changed since then.

I have a strange issue with a custom SF Symbol in Xcode 15 beta 7. It works fine except if the font is body and the weight is regular:
The top symbol is body, regular. The bottom is body, medium. All combinations except body, regular work.
In the SF Symbols 5 app, the file validates and everything shows correctly.
I wanted to attach the svg file, but I can't figure out how 😅
Is anyone aware of this issue? Or am I the issue?

I can set color of the SF symbol image in the application window but cannot do the same in the menu bar. I wonder how I can change the color in the menu?
import SwiftUI
@main
struct ipmenuApp: App {
var body: some Scene {
MenuBarExtra {
Image(systemName: "bookmark.circle.fill")
.renderingMode(.original)
.foregroundStyle(.red)
} label: {
Image(systemName: "bookmark.circle.fill")
.renderingMode(.original)
.foregroundStyle(.red)
}
}
}
xcodebuild -version

Hi everyone,
If I’m using SF Symbols in my app, am I allowed to use those same symbols on my app’s website? So in other words, I've used SF Symbols in my app to indicate what certain things are. For example "person.fill" to indicate a contact of a person.
So now that I'm at a point where I'm developing a site for my app, I'm hoping to use those same symbols to indicate what they are for when the user uses the app.
Seems a little silly that I might not be able to use them on my app, but I can’t use them to indicate what they’re for on my site?
Thanks!

Hi
I'm using Xcode and I was using SF symbol 4 before. I couldn't use it this time tried to download #5. Apparently not working in Canada, App Store said.
Right now I have no symbols for my app.
thanks

The code that has the issue is this
ZStack {
Image(systemName: icon.isEmpty ? "book.pages.fill" : icon)
.resizable()
.scaledToFit()
.scaleEffect(2.5)
.foregroundStyle(.ultraThickMaterial)
}
the book.pages.fill is completely blurry and the lung is partly blurred.
If I remove the .forgroundStyle(.ultraThickMaterial) is is completely blurred.
Some icons, tho, are sharp no matter the forgroundStyle is omitted or not.
COULD NOT UPLOUD IMAGE
Here is the complete code
import SwiftUI
struct FolderOverviewItemView: View {
@Environment(\.colorScheme) var colorScheme
@Environment(\.horizontalSizeClass) private var horizontalSizeClass
@Environment(\.verticalSizeClass) private var verticalSizeClass
var title: String
var description: String
var icon: String
var image: Image? = Image("dummy")
var color: Color
var body: some View {
Grid {
GridRow() {
Color.clear
Color.clear
Color.clear
Color.clear
}
GridRow() {
Color.clear
ZStack {
Image(systemName: icon.isEmpty ? "book.pages.fill" : icon)
.resizable()
.scaledToFit()
.scaleEffect(2.5)
.foregroundStyle(.ultraThickMaterial)
}
.gridCellColumns(2)
Color.clear
}
GridRow() {

}
.frame(maxWidth: .infinity, maxHeight: .infinity, alignment: .topLeading)
GridRow() {

.font(.headline)
.lineLimit(1, reservesSpace: true)
if horizontalSizeClass == .regular {
Text(description.isEmpty ? " " : description)
.font(.caption)
.lineLimit(2, reservesSpace: true)
.truncationMode(.tail)
} else {
Text(description.isEmpty ? " " : description)
.font(.caption)
.lineLimit(2, reservesSpace: true)
.truncationMode(.middle)
}
}
}
.frame(maxWidth: .infinity, maxHeight: .infinity, alignment: .topLeading)

}
}
.background(

)
}
}

Hello,
I've discovered symbols and it gave me idea that if use them in FCPX or Keynote, it would be lot easier to tell story to people. It is minimalistic and huge library. For example, in a camera review, I would use symbols to describe buttons of it, so in a long run, all cameras have same buttons as working but in different shapes and locations, in a language of symbols, it would a lot easier to understand especially in classic film cameras. 📸
This is my first post in Developer Forums, so Hello World!
Thanks.
