In SwiftUI, supporting iOS 14 and above, how do I get a ScrollView child view to ignore the safe area - swiftui-scrollview

Question

I have a VStack that contains a Rectangle. The Rectangle has an edgesIgnoresSafeArea(.top) view modifier on it to extend it through the top safe area.
import SwiftUI
struct ScrollViewSafeArea: View {
var body: some View {
ScrollView {
VStack {
Rectangle()
.fill(Color.orange)
.frame(height: 200)
.edgesIgnoringSafeArea(.top)
Spacer()
}
}
.background(Color.green.ignoresSafeArea())
}
}
Nice!
However, when I embed this inside a ScrollView, the Rectangle no longer extends through the safe area.
import SwiftUI
struct ScrollViewSafeArea: View {
var body: some View {
ScrollView {
VStack {
Rectangle()
.fill(Color.orange)
.frame(height: 200)
.edgesIgnoringSafeArea(.top)
Spacer()
}
}
.background(Color.green.ignoresSafeArea())
}
}
I can add a negative top padding to the Rectangle to extend it through the safe area, but this feels hacky to me.
Does anyone have a better way?

So I figured it out. I feel kind-of stupid actually. I wasn't ignoring the safe areas properly. Here is the code that does what I want it to do.
import SwiftUI
struct ScrollViewSafeArea: View {
var body: some View {
ScrollView {
VStack {
Rectangle()
.fill(Color.orange)
.frame(height: 200)
Spacer()
}
}
.ignoresSafeArea()
// Need to ignoreSafeArea again on the background color so
// the color extends to the horizontal edges in landscape.
.background(Color.green.ignoresSafeArea())
}
}
struct ScrollViewSafeArea_Previews: PreviewProvider {
static var previews: some View {
ScrollViewSafeArea()
}
}
