Remove/change section header background color in SwiftUI List

Question

With a simple List in SwiftUI, how do I change/remove the standard background color for the section header

struct ContentView : View {
    var body:         


        

Answer 1

I tried to use the custom header code above, and unfortunately could not get it to work in beta 6. That led me to the use of a ViewModifier:

public struct sectionHeader: ViewModifier{
var backgroundColor:Color
var foregroundColor:Color
public func body(content: Content) -> some View {
    content
    .padding(20)
    .frame(width: UIScreen.main.bounds.width, height: 28,alignment:
    .leading)
    .background(backgroundColor)
    .foregroundColor(foregroundColor)
}}

Which can be added to the sections in your list as follows:

struct ContentView: View {
@ObservedObject var service = someService()
var body: some View {
    NavigationView {
        List{
            ForEach(someService.sections) {section in
                Section(header: Text(section.title).modifier(sectionHeader(backgroundColor: Color(.systemBlue), foregroundColor: Color(.white)))){

Hope that helps somebody!
