Discussion

Use this modifier to add a 3D glass background material that includes thickness, specularity, glass blur, shadows, and other effects. Because of its physical depth, the glass background influences z-axis layout.

To ensure that the effect renders properly when you add it to a collection of views in a ZStack, add the modifier to the stack rather to one of the views in the stack. This includes when you create an implicit stack with view modifiers like overlay(alignment:content:) or background(alignment:content:). In those cases, you might need to create an explicit ZStack inside the content closure to have a place to add the glass background modifier.
