Hi everyone.

I'm trying to make a Sectioned list dynamically. My problem is I want to create these Sections based on Core Data entity properties (unique).

​

For example, I have a list of Items which have the property .type of type String. I want to create Sections based on the item type. However the issue I am running into right now is that if I have 5 items, then there will be 5 sections, even though there are only 2 UNIQUE 'sections'

​

                List{
                    ForEach(filteredItems, id: \.type){item in

                        Section(header: Text(item.type!)) {

                            ForEach(filteredItems.filter{$0.type == item.type}){item in
                                NavigationLink(destination: ItemDetail(item:item,
                                                                       mediaItems: PersistenceController.shared.imagesFromCoreData(object: item.image)!
                                                                      )){
                                    ItemRow(item:item)
                                }
                            }
                        }
                    }.onDelete(perform: removeItem)
                }

In the code above I have filteredItems, which is a list of Items. Again, each Item has the string property 'type'. I want to have the Type has a Section, and then Items that have that certain Type under that section. I believe this part is working as intended with the nested ForEach loop.

I think the issue is with my outer ForEach loop as it is looping for each item in the list. I thought the

id: \.type would solve this issue but it seems I'm not fully understanding this.

Hopefully someone can chime in with a solution?

Thanks all!
