# searchToolbarBehavior(_:)

Configures the behavior for search in the toolbar.

## Declaration

```swift
nonisolated func searchToolbarBehavior(_ behavior: SearchToolbarBehavior) -> some View

```

## Discussion

Discussion This modifier can be used to change the default behavior of a search field that appears in the toolbar. Place this modifier after the searchable(text:isPresented:placement:prompt:) modifier that renders search in the toolbar. On iPhone, the search field in the bottom toolbar can be configured to appear as a button-like control when inactive: @State private var searchText = ""

NavigationStack {     RecipeList()         .searchable($searchText)         .searchToolbarBehavior(.minimized) }
