Display the label on top of the FormBuilderDropdown with border - flutter

Question

I have a FormBuilderDropdown with borders like the below image. But when there is a value in the dropdown, I cannot see the label like in the textbox above the dropdown. I want to show the dropdown with the label with the borders. How it is possible?
Here is the code
FormBuilderDropdown(
name: widget.name,
initialValue: "USA",
decoration: InputDecoration(
labelText: widget.label,
labelStyle: TextStyle(
color: widget.enabled
? Colors.black54
: Theme.of(context).disabledColor),
contentPadding: EdgeInsets.all(16),
focusedBorder: OutlineInputBorder(
borderSide: BorderSide(color: Theme.of(context).primaryColor),
),
border: new OutlineInputBorder(borderSide: new BorderSide()),
),
allowClear: widget.allowClear,
hint: Text(widget.hint),
validator: widget.validator,
enabled: widget.enabled,
items: countries
.map((country) => DropdownMenuItem(
value: country['alpha_2_code'],
child: Text(country['en_short_name']),
))
.toList(),
)

Answer 1

In my case, FormBuilderDropdown label is working here.
Do flutter clean and restart the app, it may solve your issue, else check value on items.
Test widget
class _DistrictslayoutState extends State<Districtslayout> {
final districts = List.generate(22, (index) => "item $index");
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return LayoutBuilder(
builder: (context, constraints) => Center(
child: Column(
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
children: [
FormBuilderDropdown(
name: "name",
initialValue: districts[0],
decoration: InputDecoration(
labelText: "label Text",
labelStyle: TextStyle(
color: true
? Colors.black54
: Theme.of(context).disabledColor),
contentPadding: EdgeInsets.all(16),
focusedBorder: OutlineInputBorder(
borderSide:
BorderSide(color: Theme.of(context).primaryColor),
),
border: new OutlineInputBorder(
borderSide: new BorderSide()),
),
items: districts
.map(
(e) => DropdownMenuItem(
value: e,
child: Text(e),
),
)
.toList()),
])));
}
}

I am using DropdownButtonFormField which is working pretty well.
DropdownButtonFormField(
// value: 'item1',
hint: Text('select item'),
decoration: InputDecoration(labelText: 'select an item'),
onChanged: (_) {},
dropdownColor: Colors.white,
items: [
DropdownMenuItem(
child: Text('item 1'),
value: 'item1',
),
DropdownMenuItem(
child: Text('item 2'),
value: 'item2',
),
],
),
