# labelsVisibility(_:)

Controls the visibility of labels of any controls contained within this view.

## Declaration

```swift
nonisolated func labelsVisibility(_ visibility: Visibility) -> some View

```

## Discussion

Discussion Use this modifier when you want to omit a label from one or more labeled content in your user interface. For example, the first Toggle in the following example hides its label: VStack {     Toggle(isOn: $toggle1) {         Text("Toggle 1")     }     .labelsVisibility(.hidden)

Toggle(isOn: $toggle2) {         Text("Toggle 2")     } } The VStack in the example above centers the first toggle’s control element in the available space, while it centers the second toggle’s combined label and control element:

Always provide a label for controls, even when you hide the label, because SwiftUI uses labels for other purposes, including accessibility. On iOS, a Picker within a Menu hides its label by default. You can use this modifier to explicitly show the label in that context: Menu {     Picker("Flavor", selection: $selectedFlavor) {         Text("Chocolate").tag(Flavor.chocolate)         Text("Vanilla").tag(Flavor.vanilla)         Text("Strawberry").tag(Flavor.strawberry)     }     .labelsVisibility(.visible) } note: This modifier doesn’t work for all labels. It applies to LabeledContent elements, including controls like Picker and Toggle, but not to controls like a bordered button where the label is inside the button’s border.
