Handle animations in SwiftUI with @Default

[Vincz]

Hi! First of all, I'm sorry if it's a stupid question or if it has nothing to do with these package.

I'm trying to animate a List where the order of elements depends on a variable in Defaults.
If I'm using a @State, it's working as expected.
If I'm using a @Default, animation doesn't work.

These works:

enum OrderBy: String, Codable, Defaults.Serializable {
    case index, name
}

struct Element: Identifiable {
    let id: String
    let index: Int
    let name: String
}

let allElements: [Element] = [
    .init(id: "1", index: 5, name: "Element 1"),
    .init(id: "2", index: 4, name: "Element 2"),
    .init(id: "3", index: 1, name: "Element 3"),
    .init(id: "4", index: 3, name: "Element 4"),
    .init(id: "5", index: 2, name: "Element 5"),
]

struct MyView: View {
        @State var order: OrderBy = .index
        func toggleOrder() {
            withAnimation {
                order = order == .index ? .name : .index
            }
        }
        
        var elements: [Element] {
            allElements.sorted(by: { order == .index ? $0.index < $1.index : $0.name < $1.name })
        }

        var body: some View {
            Picker("Order by", selection: $order) {
                Text("index").tag(OrderBy.index)
                Text("name").tag(OrderBy.name)
            }
        
            List {
                ForEach(elements, id: \.id) { element in 
                    Text("Element \(element.name)")
                }
         }
     }
}

These doesn't work:

extension Defaults.Keys {
    static let order = Key<OrderBy>("orderBy", default: OrderBy.index)
}

struct MyView: View {
        @Default(.order) var order
        func toggleOrder() {
            withAnimation {
                listSortOption = listSortOption == .index ? .name : .index
            }
        }
        ...
}

Is these a limitation of the package or is it completely something else?
Thanks

Most likely a SwiftUI bug. The issue was introduced by 2dad0e4, but that was done to work around another SwiftUI bug, so we cannot just revert that.

Is there any way we can bypass the issue without an intermediate variables somewhere?
Will it be fixed in the package or when the SwiftUI bug will be fixed?
Thanks!
