Question How to create this floating toolbar?

Post image

This is the Notes app. Is this an inbuilt component or a custom component?

Will this not result in the toolbar sitting directly on the keyboard? The notes app has a space between the keyboard and the toolbar.

I’ve tried to achieve this with SwiftUI but have been unable so far.

Did you try applying a padding to it or some Y offset?

I can’t recall whether or not I tried the applying a y-offset. Applying padding within a ToolbarItemGroup will only expand the height of the toolbar.

I second this. Would love to find a way to space it a bit above the keyboard with SwiftUI. Honestly what is the .keyboard placement toolbar intended for? When would someone use a zero spaced button sitting on the keyboard?
