I am trying to access variables that are marked as @State in a view from the view that calls that view. These variables in the child view are hooked up to a text box. If I type in that text box and hit return and then click a button, the button is in the parent view, to read that variable it returns an empty string. If I take that button and put it inside the child view and do the same thing it prints what I typed in the text box. I am very new to SwiftUI and it is probably a very simple fix but I have tried everything. Any help is greatly appreciated!
Parent view (DetailedView)
struct DetailedView: View {
@Environment(\.managedObjectContext) var moc
var targetMuscle : String = "Chest"
let today = Date()
@State public var exerciseCards : [ExerciseCard] = []
@State public var exercise : String = "Bench Press"
@State public var exercises : Int = 0
@State public var showPassedWorkouts : Bool = false
static let taskDateFormat : DateFormatter = {
let formatter = DateFormatter()
formatter.dateStyle = .long
return formatter
}()
var body: some View {
ZStack{
VStack{
HStack{
VStack{
Text(targetMuscle).font(.system(size:40)).fontWeight(.medium)
Text("\(today, formatter: Self.taskDateFormat)")
.font(.system(size:20))
}.frame(width: 250, height: 30, alignment: .topLeading)
.navigationBarTitle("")
.navigationBarHidden(true)
.padding(.bottom, -7)
Button(action: {
self.showPassedWorkouts.toggle()
}) {
Text("Passed Workouts")
.multilineTextAlignment(.center)
}.offset(x: -75, y: 25)
.sheet(isPresented: $showPassedWorkouts){
PassedWorkoutList()
}
Button(action: {
let workout = Workout(context: self.moc)
workout.muscle = self.targetMuscle
workout.date = formattedDateString(day: self.today)
for number in 0..<self.exerciseCards.count{
let exercise = Exercise(context: self.moc)
exercise.name = self.exerciseCards[number].exercise

exerciseSet.reps = Int16(self.exerciseCards[number].tableRows[innerNum].reps) ?? 0
exerciseSet.weight = Int16(self.exerciseCards[number].tableRows[innerNum].weight) ?? 0
exerciseSet.set = self.exerciseCards[number].tableRows[innerNum].set
exercise.addToExerciseSet(exerciseSet)

workout.addToExercise(exercise)

try? self.moc.save()

.padding(.leading)
ScrollView{
ForEach(0..<exerciseCards.count, id: \.self){ number in
self.exerciseCards[number]

Button(action: {
self.exerciseCards.append(ExerciseCard())
}) {

First Child View(ExerciseCard)
struct ExerciseCard: View {

var body: some View {

VStack{
ForEach(0..<tableRows.count, id: \.self){ number in
self.tableRows[number]
}
}.padding(.bottom, 5)
HStack{
Button(action: {
if self.tableRows.count > 1{
self.tableRows.remove(at: self.tableRows.count-1)
}
}) {
Text("Remove Set")
.frame(minWidth: 150)
.padding(.vertical, 5)

}
Second Child view(ExerciseTableRow)
struct ExerciseTableRow: View {

.padding(.trailing, 40)
.padding(.leading, 10)
if readOnly == false{
Group{
TextField("0", text: $weight)
TextField("0", text: $reps)
}.textFieldStyle(RoundedBorderTextFieldStyle())
.frame(width: 50)
.multilineTextAlignment(.center)
.keyboardType(.numberPad)
.padding(.horizontal, 30)
}
else{
Group{
Text(String(setWeight))
Text(String(setReps))

.frame(width: 50)
.overlay(
RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 5)
.stroke(Color.black, lineWidth: 1)

.padding(.bottom, 5)
.padding(.horizontal, 30)
