My recommendation
create a enum for payment methods
enum PaymentTypes {
prepaid,
pay_on_delivery,
}
create a local variable to store selected payment method in your state class
PaymentTypes selectedPaymentType;
set the selected payment method on checkbox onChange method
Checkbox(
//prepaid checkbox
...
onChanged: (value) {
podCheckBoxValue = !podCheckBoxValue;
setState(() {
selectedPaymentType = PaymentTypes.prepaid;
});
//print(value);
},
),
Checkbox(
//pay on delivery checkbox
...
onChanged: (value) {
podCheckBoxValue = !podCheckBoxValue;
setState(() {
selectedPaymentType = PaymentTypes.pay_on_delivery;
});
//print(value);
},
),
use selectedPaymentType value on Textbox
const Text(
describeEnum(selectedPaymentType).replaceAll(RegExp('_'), ' ')
)
Or you can just use a string to store the checkbox value without enums
String selectedPaymentType;
onChanged: (value) {
podCheckBoxValue = !podCheckBoxValue;
setState(() {
selectedPaymentType = 'Pay on delivery';
});
//print(value);
},
),
const Text(
selectedPaymentType
)
