I have a app that looks like the picture above.
When i swipe right or left, page switches along with the pageview content. but NOT the image part, it stays still.
When i implement pull to refresh on this case, the gap opens above image part showing progress indicator and refreshes.
I want the refresher crack open between image and content part, how do i achieve this?
thank you so much for reply in advance, you are the hero.
class HomePage extends StatelessWidget {
const HomePage({Key? key}) : super(key: key);
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Scaffold(
body: Stack(
children: [
const Expanded(
child: SizedBox(height: 200), //The 'Image Part'
),
SmartRefresher(
child: PageView.builder(itemBuilder: (context, state) => Column(
children:[SizedBox(height:200),PageContent()], itemCount: 3),//The 'Content Part'
)
],
));
}
}
Example code added above, this represents what i would like to implement, I want the refresher only accessible inside PageContent()
but i could not because it contains Column inside
seems like an issue with your stack.
if you want the image part to also follow the swipe it has to be within the pageview.builder.
For the refresh, under pageview.builder wrap the content part in the pull-to-refresh widget but not the image.
This is possibly caused by the Stack widget
Change your Stack to a Column
Wrap your SmartRefresher with and Expanded widget for your ListviewBuilder to take the remaining space in vertical axis. You will have an unbounded high error otherwise
Set the shrinkwrap of your ListviewBuilder to true for it to build your list elements on demand
That's it! ☑️

I have 3 views which are accessible via the bottom navigation tab. Each view has its own ListView, which looks like this:
// primary = bottomTabNavigation.index //
ListView(
controller: primary ? null : scrollController,
key: const PageStorageKey<String>('view1'),
primary: primary,
physics: primary
? AlwaysScrollableScrollPhysics()
: NeverScrollableScrollPhysics(),
children: const [
Text("A"),
SizedBox(height: 1000),
Text("B"),
],
),
If I start a big swipe on view1, and switch to view2 via bottom tab navigator, the scroll position when I come back to view1 is still at the top. Somehow, the scroll position only saves upon the scrolling animation completing.
Is there some way to switch tabs and store the last position (without waiting for animation)?
Create a Key outside the build method
final _key = GlobalKey();
Step 1: make your widgets staefulWidget.
Step 2: now use AutomaticKeepAliveClientMixin using with keyword.
class _DealListState extends
State<DealList> with
AutomaticKeepAliveClientMixin<DealList>
{
#override
bool get wantKeepAlive => true;
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
// your current widget build
}}
It will keep your listview and other states when you moves from one page to another.
Note: if it's impossible to change every page to stateful widget then just make a new StatefulWidget that use AutomaticKeepAliveClientMixin and will take a child widget from outside and now you can use this widget to wrap your already present widget and can be used through the app.
Totally new to flutter, less than 10h on it.
I have a PageView handing 3 pages, it scrolls horizontally through them perfectly.
But I would like to change the "allowed swipe" area. I don't want to let the user change the pages scrolling from any position of the page, but instead, for example, just let him scroll the pages if he swipes on the AppBar component for example.
I saw the PageView has the applyTo method, I'm just lost about how to give to it the ID(keys) or the appBar to see if this will work.
Is there a way of achieving this "only scroll if the user swipes on the component X"?
Edit 1
Solution suggested by Alberto Miola works like a charm, here is my code (I had to implement from PreferredSizeWidget since is required to modify the AppBar).
class GestureDetectorForAppBar extends StatelessWidget implements PreferredSizeWidget {
final double height;
final AppBar appbar;
final GestureDragUpdateCallback onPanUpdate;
GestureDetectorForAppBar({
Key key,
this.appbar,
this.onPanUpdate,
#required this.height,
}) : super(key: key);
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return GestureDetector(child: this.appbar, onPanUpdate: this.onPanUpdate,);
}
#override
Size get preferredSize => Size.fromHeight(height);
}
First of all, you need to "block" the swipe gesture on the PageView itself using NeverScrollableScrollPhysics:
PageView(
physics: const NeverScrollableScrollPhysics(),
children: [...],
controller: ...
);
Note the usage of a const constructor. In this way you won't be able to move among pages with your finger. In Flutter you have widgets and not components.
Give a look at the GestureDetector widget which can be used to listen on swipes and change the currently visible content of your PageView. It can be used to detect swipes:
GestureDetector(
onPanUpdate: (data) {
if (data.delta.dx > 0) {
// right swipe
}
if (data.delta.dx < 0) {
// right swipe
}
}
);
In order, I suggest you to first read about NeverScrollableScrollPhysics() in the official documentation. It's used to "block" scrolling behaviors. Then, use GestureDetector() to wrap the widget you want to be used as a "scroll director" (the one that actually scrolls the pages).
Inside onPanUpdate you'll deal with the animateToPage method of the PageController to change the currently visible page.
I want a standard AppBar when the app starts, however, once the user begins scrolling I want the app bar to slide up and off the screen. However, when that happens, the status bar (on iOS) doesn't have a background. I don't want to set a constant background directly to the status bar using something like flutter_statusbarcolor because that leaves a solid color, which isn't a widget.
The only solution I have right now is to just keep the AppBar pined.
However, what I really want to do is what Google News does. The AppBar slides up almost all the way, however, it stays under the app bar with some opacity.
How Google News does it:
Is there any way to do this with Flutter and SliverAppBar without doing it a hacky way? The only thing I'm thinking is doing it with a stack, however, how would I know how to keep it under the status bar, as Android already has some opacity under the status bar.
Scroll widgets in flutter have controllers that inform what's going on with the scroll. You can get how much the sliver has been scrolled and change it's opacity, content and size accordingly. It's not going to be simple though, but take a look at ScrollController, used by the CustomScrollView.
I used OrientationBuilder widget to listen to changes in orientation, as when there are changes to the orientation the status bar hight can change.
Then I used FlutterStatusbarManager package to get the height of the status bar. FlutterStatusbarManager.getHeight is a future so it needed to be wrapped with a FutureBuilder
Here is the full example code
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:flutter_statusbar_manager/flutter_statusbar_manager.dart';
class FixedStatusbarBackground extends StatelessWidget {
final Widget child;
const FixedStatusbarBackground({Key key, this.child}) : super(key: key);
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Stack(
children: <Widget>[
child,
OrientationBuilder(
builder: (context, Orientation orientation) => FutureBuilder<double>(
future: FlutterStatusbarManager.getHeight,
builder: (context, snapshot) {
if (snapshot.hasData) {
return Container(
height: snapshot.data,
color: Theme.of(context)
.appBarTheme
.color
.withOpacity(.7) //Colors.white.withOpacity(.7),
);
} else {
return Container();
}
}),
),
],
);
}
}
The child widget that is passed in is the entire CustomScrollView.
Since i want this to be my layout i was trying to implement it with a showModalBottomSheet but the problem is that this widget only works on the button click as it is showing me error when i am trying to call the method as it is in the initState method. So then I started to work with bottomSheet value present in the scaffold but then the background is being displayed only upto the starting of the bottom sheet creating the distance between the model sheet and the background whereas I want it to overlap like in the image..How should I prepare this layout.
There is no such parameter as "bottomSheet" in Scaffold, there is one called bottomAppBar, which is used for making Bottom Bars like the one on the Youtube Android App. So this should help you make the basic structure.
Use a Stack widget to put widgets on top of each other, in first layer, add the image using the NetworkImage widget, then in the second layer, make a Column, like this:
#override
Widget build() => Scaffold(
body: _body(),
);
_body() => Stack(
children: <Widget>[
NetworkImage(your_url_here),
Column(
children: <Widget>[
_basicDetails(),
_guidePanel(),
]
),
]);
Then create 2 new methods after the _body method like this:
_body() => Stack(...);
_basicDetailsPage() => Container();
_guidePanel() => Container();
Create your layout in these 2 methods. Comment if you need more help :)

In android version, Flutter TextEditingController does not scroll above keyboard like default text fields do when you start typing in field. I tried to look in sample apps provided in flutter example directory, but even there are no example of TextEditController with such behaviour.
Is there any way to implement this.
Thanks in advance.
so simple
if your textfields is between 5-10 fields
SingleChildScrollView(
reverse: true, // add this line in scroll view
child: ...
)
(August 20, 2021 Flutter 2.2.3)
I think my answer might be the cleanest solution for this problem:
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
/// Get the [BuildContext] of the currently-focused
/// input field anywhere in the entire widget tree.
final focusedCtx = FocusManager.instance.primaryFocus!.context;
/// If u call [ensureVisible] while the keyboard is moving up
/// (the keyboard's display animation does not yet finish), this
/// will not work. U have to wait for the keyboard to be fully visible
Future.delayed(const Duration(milliseconds: 400))
.then((_) => Scrollable.ensureVisible(
focusedCtx!,
duration: const Duration(milliseconds: 200),
curve: Curves.easeIn,
));
/// [return] a [Column] of [TextField]s here...
}
Every time the keyboard kicks in or disappears, the Flutter framework will automatically call the build() method for u. U can try to place a breakpoint in the IDE to figure out this behavior yourself.
Future.delayed() will first immediately return a pending Future that will complete successfully after 400 milliseconds. Whenever the Dart runtime see a Future, it will enter a non-blocking I/O time (= inactive time = async time = pending time, meaning that the CPU is idle waiting for something to complete). While Dart runtime is waiting for this Future to complete, it will proceed to the lines of code below to build a column of text fields. And when the Future is complete, it will immediately jump back to the line of code of this Future and execute .then() method.
More about asynchronous programming from this simple visualization about non-blocking I/O and from the Flutter team.
Flutter does not have such thing by default.
Add your TextField in a ListView.
create ScrollController and assign it to the ListView's controller.
When you select the TextField, scroll the ListView using:
controller.jumpTo(value);
or if you wish to to have scrolling animation:
controller.animateTo(offset, duration: null, curve: null);
EDIT: Of course the duration and curve won't be null. I just copied and pasted it here.
Thank you all for the helpful answers #user2785693 pointed in the right direction.

Issue with just using scroll or focusNode.listner is, it was working only if I focus on textbox for the first time, but if I minimize the keyboard and again click on same text box which already had focus, the listner callback was not firing, so the auto scroll code was not running. Solution was to add "WidgetsBindingObserver" to state class and override "didChangeMetrics" function.
Hope this helps others to make Flutter forms more user friendly.
This is an attempt to provide a complete answer which combines information on how to detect the focus from this StackOverflow post with information on how to scroll from Arnold Parge.
I have only been using Flutter for a couple days so this might not be the best example of how to create a page or the input widget.
The link to the gist provided in the other post also looks like a more robust solution but I haven't tried it yet. The code below definitely works in my small test project.
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
class MyPage extends StatefulWidget {
#override createState() => new MyPageState();
}
class MyPageState extends State<MyPage> {
ScrollController _scroll;
FocusNode _focus = new FocusNode();
#override void initState() {
super.initState();
_scroll = new ScrollController();
_focus.addListener(() {
_scroll.jumpTo(-1.0);
});
}
#override Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return new Scaffold(
appBar: new AppBar(
title: new Text('Some Page Title'),
),
body: new DropdownButtonHideUnderline(
child: new SafeArea(
top: false,
bottom: false,
child: new ListView(
controller: _scroll,
padding: const EdgeInsets.all(16.0),
children: <Widget>[
// ... several other input widgets which force the TextField lower down the page ...
new TextField(
decoration: const InputDecoration(labelText: 'The label'),
focusNode: _focus,
),
],
),
),
),
);
}
}
