Please see my code and scree shot below. I want locate Text("to be center") at center horizontally, but comparatively located right side as showen below.
I understand i'ts because I'm using expanded widget and set flex 1 & 4 and Text("to be center") are inclueded in latter block.
How can I located totally or relatively center but using expandede & flex property like this case ?
Also I understand I can adjust it by wrapping Text() with padding and set EdgeInsets.only(right:X) but I can not figure out if it is totally cenerized or not...
Row(
children: [
Expanded(
flex:1,
child:TextButton(
style: TextButton.styleFrom(
alignment: Alignment.centerLeft,
),
child: const Icon(
Icons.close,
color: MyStyle.textColor,
),
onPressed: () {
Navigator.of(context).pop();
},
),
),
Expanded(
flex:4,
child: Container(
alignment: Alignment.center,
decoration: const BoxDecoration(
),
child: Text("to be center",style: MyText(myFontSize: 15).style()),
)
),
],
),
Just use Spacer at the end inside Row
Row(
children: [
Expanded(
flex: 1,
child: TextButton(
style: TextButton.styleFrom(
alignment: Alignment.centerLeft,
),
child: const Icon(
Icons.close,
color: MyStyle.textColor,
),
onPressed: () {
Navigator.of(context).pop();
},
),
),
Expanded(
flex: 4,
child: Container(
alignment: Alignment.center,
decoration: const BoxDecoration(),
child: Text(
"to be center",
style: MyText(myFontSize: 15).style(),
),
),
),
// like this
const Spacer(),
],
),

Try below code: refer layout
Row(
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.spaceAround,
crossAxisAlignment: CrossAxisAlignment.center,
children: [
Expanded(
child: TextButton(
style: TextButton.styleFrom(
alignment: Alignment.centerLeft,
),
child: const Icon(
Icons.close,
),
onPressed: () {
Navigator.of(context).pop();
},
),
),
const Expanded(
child: Center(
child: Text(
'to be center',
),
),
),
const Expanded(child: SizedBox())
],
),

The simple solutions could be:
Use textAlign attribute of Text widget or
Wrap Text widget with Center widget inside Expanded widget or
You can even explore the widget IntrinsicWidth with Center widget.
How can I create a row w/2 buttons that, together, take up the space of their parent (the row)? I want to place this row immediately above the bottom navigation bar at times and then at other times I want it to take the place of the bottom navigation bar. Can I do it just using Row? I've tried persistentFooterButtons with a child of Row and children of FractionallySizedBox but it results in an overflow error and the buttons don't take up the height of of the persistentFooterButtons. There's got to be a better, more straight-forward, approach. Just learning Flutter.
This is a rough example of what I want placed at the bottom of the screen (buttons should be of equal height), where the bottom nav bar would be... and/or immediately above.

Some of the many (unsuccessful attempts) below:
Wrap Buttons in Expand Attempt:
return Row(
children: <Widget>[
Expanded(
child: ElevatedButton(
onPressed: () {},
style: TextButton.styleFrom(backgroundColor: Colors.blue),
child: Text(
"Some Text #1",
style: TextStyle(color: Colors.white),
))),
Expanded(
child: ElevatedButton(
onPressed: () {},
style: TextButton.styleFrom(backgroundColor: Colors.green),
child: Text("Some Text #2"),
),
),
],

As you can see, there is white space that shouldn't be there and the buttons are evenly spaced. I have also tried using ColoredBoxes instead of buttons as I read that buttons have margins that cannot be changed?
UPDATE
Finally figured it out, with the help of #lava solutions. Just made a few tweaks to it to remove white space, etc.

}
}
You can either add persistentFooterButtons to the Scaffold like
Scaffold(
persistentFooterButtons: [
TextButton(),
TextButton()
]
)
Or in the view:
Column(
children: [
Expanded(child: yourContent), // To use max height space
Row(
children: [
Expanded(child: TextButton()),
Expanded(child: TextButton()),,
]
),
]
),
To give a different width you can add flex to the Expanded or use Flexible and add flex
Wrap both your buttons with Expanded so that they take same amount of width and fill the row.
I am using flutter_signin_button package to create Facebook and Apple Sign In buttons for login. However, I am facing overflow issue. Following is my code:
Container(
width: double.infinity,
child: SignInButton(
Buttons.FacebookNew,
onPressed: () => authBloc.loginFacebook(),
),
),
Container(
child: SignInButton(
Buttons.AppleDark,
onPressed: () {},
text: "Apple",
),
),
Padding(
padding: EdgeInsets.only(top: 10),
child: Text("OR",
style: TextStyle(
color: Colors.black,
fontSize: SizeConfig.textMultiplier * 2.2,
fontWeight: FontWeight.w800)),
),
Padding(
padding: EdgeInsets.only(bottom: 10),
),
Container(
width: 205,
child: ElevatedButton(
style: ElevatedButton.styleFrom(
primary: Color(0xFF1fd281),
),
onPressed: () => authBloc.loginAnonymous(),
child: Container(
width: 190,
child: Text(
"Play As Guest",
style: TextStyle(color: Colors.black),
textAlign: TextAlign.center,
),
),
),
),
The output is in the image below:
I even tried the make the container full width in an attempt to remove this overflow, but still doesn't work. Facing this issue on iPhone 7 Plus only. Not facing this issue on iOS simulator.
As per suggestion by #Sachin Liyanage, I added Expanded and the output is as follows:
Solution 1: Use Expanded or Flexible as a parent of your Container
Expanded(
child:Container(
width: double.infinity,
child: SignInButton(
Buttons.FacebookNew,
onPressed: () => authBloc.loginFacebook(),
),
),
),
Solution 2: Use Card like this, Change the following code according to your need.
Card(
child: Padding(
padding: EdgeInsets.all(16),
child: Row(
crossAxisAlignment: CrossAxisAlignment.start,
children: [
Image.asset('assets/fc-logo.png', width: 56, height: 56),
Padding(
padding: EdgeInsets.symmetric(horizontal: 16),
child: Column(
crossAxisAlignment: CrossAxisAlignment.start,
children: [
Text("Flutter Clutter", style: TextStyle(fontSize: 18)),
Text("Internationalization (i18n) in Flutter: an easy and quick approach")
]
),
),
Spacer(),
Text("03.03.2020"),
]
)
)
);
For more ways refer to this - https://www.flutterclutter.dev/flutter/troubleshooting/widget-overflowed-by-pixels/2020/461/
Solution 3: Use AutoSizeText widget for facebook text
Refer to this - https://pub.dev/packages/auto_size_text
no no Use a slivers with custom scrollview and set width via padding like
customScrollview(
slivers:[
SliverAppBar("yourAppBar"),
SliverPAdding(
padding: EdgeInsets.all(24) // give here padding for width you button
sliver:SliverToBoxAdapter(
child: "YourButtton"
)
)
]
);
I'm trying to control the size of the FlatButton with an Icon in it. But it seems the Icon is breaking the button.
return Container(width: 180,height:30,
child: Row(
children: [
FlatButton(onPressed: () => _selectedDateDailyChart > 0 ? _adjustDate(-1) : null,
child: Container(
color:Colors.red,
width: 20,
child: Icon(Icons.arrow_back_ios),
),
padding: EdgeInsets.zero
),
Container(child: Text(currentDate, style: Theme.of(context).textTheme.headline3.apply(fontSizeDelta: -2)),),
FlatButton(onPressed: () => _selectedDateDailyChart > 0 ? _adjustDate(-1) : null,
child: Container(
width: 20,
child: Icon(Icons.arrow_forward_ios),
),
padding: EdgeInsets.zero
),
],),
Here is what it looks like:
You may want put an InkWell widget around you Icon insted, same result, 0 padding.
you just have to use Expanded Widget like this "to make a balance between the two button wrap the other Button with expanded too"
child: Container(
width: 180,
height: 30,
child: Row(
children: [
Expanded(
child: FlatButton(
onPressed: () => _selectedDateDailyChart > 0
? _adjustDate(-1)
: null,
child: Container(
color: Colors.red,
width: 20,
child: Icon(Icons.arrow_back_ios),
),
padding: EdgeInsets.zero),
),
Container(
child: Text(currentDate,
style: Theme.of(context)
.textTheme
.headline3
.apply(fontSizeDelta: -2)),
),
FlatButton(
onPressed: () =>
_selectedDateDailyChart > 0 ? _adjustDate(-1) : null,
child: Container(
width: 20,
child: Icon(Icons.arrow_forward_ios),
),
padding: EdgeInsets.zero),
],
),
),
I want to know that how can I set a width to match parent layout width
new Container(
width: 200.0,
padding: const EdgeInsets.only(top: 16.0),
child: new RaisedButton(
child: new Text(
"Submit",
style: new TextStyle(
color: Colors.white,
)
),
colorBrightness: Brightness.dark,
onPressed: () {
_loginAttempt(context);
},
color: Colors.blue,
),
),
I know about little bit on Expanded widget but Expanded expands view to both direction, i dont know how to do it.
Update:
With Flutter 2.0 RaisedButton is deprecated and replaced by ElevatedButton. you can use minimumSize like this:
ElevatedButton(
style: ElevatedButton.styleFrom(
minimumSize: Size.fromHeight(40), // fromHeight use double.infinity as width and 40 is the height
),
onPressed: () {},
child: Text('Text Of Button'),
)
Old answer for Flutter less than 2.0:
The correct solution would be to use the SizedBox.expand widget, which enforces its child to match its parent's size.
SizedBox.expand(
child: RaisedButton(...),
)
There are many alternatives, which allows for more or less customization:
SizedBox(
width: double.infinity,
// height: double.infinity,
child: RaisedButton(...),
)
or using a ConstrainedBox
ConstrainedBox(
constraints: const BoxConstraints(minWidth: double.infinity),
child: RaisedButton(...),
)
Container(
width: double.infinity,
child: RaisedButton(...),
),
After some research, I found out some solution, and thanks to #Günter Zöchbauer,
I used column instead of Container and
set the property to column CrossAxisAlignment.stretch to Fill match parent of Button
new Column(
crossAxisAlignment: CrossAxisAlignment.stretch,
children: <Widget>[
new RaisedButton(
child: new Text(
"Submit",
style: new TextStyle(
color: Colors.white,
)
),
colorBrightness: Brightness.dark,
onPressed: () {
_loginAttempt(context);
},
color: Colors.blue,
),
],
),
The size attribute can be provided using ButtonTheme with minWidth: double.infinity
ButtonTheme(
minWidth: double.infinity,
child: MaterialButton(
onPressed: () {},
child: Text('Raised Button'),
),
),
or after https://github.com/flutter/flutter/pull/19416 landed
MaterialButton(
onPressed: () {},
child: SizedBox.expand(
width: double.infinity,
child: Text('Raised Button'),
),
),
The simplest way is to use a FlatButton wrapped inside a Container, The button by default takes the size of its parent and so assign a desired width to the Container.
Container(
color: Colors.transparent,
width: MediaQuery.of(context).size.width,
height: 60,
child: FlatButton(
shape: new RoundedRectangleBorder(
borderRadius: new BorderRadius.circular(30.0),
),
onPressed: () {},
color: Colors.red[300],
child: Text(
"Button",
style: TextStyle(
color: Colors.black,
fontFamily: 'Raleway',
fontSize: 22.0,
),
),
),
)
Output:
You can set match parent of the widget by
1) set width to double.infinity :
new Container(
width: double.infinity,
padding: const EdgeInsets.only(top: 16.0),
child: new RaisedButton(
child: new Text(
"Submit",
style: new TextStyle(
color: Colors.white,
)
),
colorBrightness: Brightness.dark,
onPressed: () {
_loginAttempt(context);
},
color: Colors.blue,
),
),
2) Use MediaQuery:
new Container(
width: MediaQuery.of(context).size.width,
padding: const EdgeInsets.only(top: 16.0),
child: new RaisedButton(
child: new Text(
"Submit",
style: new TextStyle(
color: Colors.white,
)
),
colorBrightness: Brightness.dark,
onPressed: () {
_loginAttempt(context);
},
color: Colors.blue,
),
),
#Mohit Suthar,
Found one of the best solution for match parent to width as well as height as below
new Expanded(
child: new Container(
padding: EdgeInsets.all(16.0),
margin: EdgeInsets.all(16.0),
decoration: new BoxDecoration(
color: Colors.white,
borderRadius:
const BorderRadius.all(const Radius.circular(8.0)),
border: new Border.all(color: Colors.black, width: 1.0)),
child: new Text("TejaDroid")),
),
Here you can check that the Expanded Controller acquire whole remain width and height.
For match_parent you can use
SizedBox(
width: double.infinity, // match_parent
child: RaisedButton(...)
)
For any particular value you can use
SizedBox(
width: 100, // specific value
child: RaisedButton(...)
)
The simplest way to give match-parent width or height in the given code above.
...
width: double.infinity,
height: double.infinity,
...
There are many ways to make full width button. But I think you should understand the concept of making full width widgets in different scenarios:
When you are using nested widgets then it is hard to identify width of parent widget. Simply you can't specify width in nested widgets. So you should use either Expanded or Column with CrossAxisAlignment as Strech.
In other cases, you can use media query width or double.infinity.
Here are some examples for Nested widgets and single widget:
First:
Expanded( // This will work for nested widgets and will take width of first parent widget.
child: MaterialButton(
onPressed: () {},
child: const Text("Button Text"),
color: Colors.indigo,
textColor: Colors.white,
)
)
Second:
Column( // This will not work if parent widget Row.
crossAxisAlignment: CrossAxisAlignment.stretch,
children: <Widget>[
MaterialButton(
onPressed: () {},
child: const Text("Button Text"),
color: Colors.indigo,
textColor: Colors.white,
)
]
)
Third:
ButtonTheme( // if use media query, then will not work for nested widgets.
minWidth: double.infinity, //Or use 'width: MediaQuery.of(context).size.width'
child: MaterialButton(
onPressed: () {},
child: const Text("Button Text"),
color: Colors.indigo,
textColor: Colors.white,
)
)
Forth:
SizedBox( // if use media query, then will not work for nested widgets.
width: double.infinity, //Or use 'width: MediaQuery.of(context).size.width'
child: MaterialButton(
onPressed: () {},
child: const Text("Button Text"),
color: Colors.indigo,
textColor: Colors.white,
)
)
Fifth:
Container( // if use media query, then will not work for nested widgets.
width: double.infinity, //Or use 'width: MediaQuery.of(context).size.width'
child: MaterialButton(
onPressed: () {},
child: const Text("Button Text"),
color: Colors.indigo,
textColor: Colors.white,
)
)
From my point of view, recommended will be the First one. Also you can change MaterialButton to ElevatedButton or TextButton or RaisedButton (Depreciated) or any other widget.
Cheers!
you can do that with MaterialButton
MaterialButton(
padding: EdgeInsets.all(12.0),
minWidth: double.infinity,
onPressed: () {},
child: Text("Btn"),
)
You can set the fixedSize.width of the ButtonStyle to a very large number, like double.maxFinite. You can also use Size.fromWidth() constructor if you don't want to specify the height:
ElevatedButton(
child: const Text('Button'),
style: ElevatedButton.styleFrom(
fixedSize: const Size.fromWidth(double.maxFinite),
),
),
Live Demo
The most basic approach is using Container by define its width to infinite. See below example of code
Container(
width: double.infinity,
child:FlatButton(
onPressed: () {
//your action here
},
child: Text("Button"),
)
)
OutlineButton(
onPressed: () {
logInButtonPressed(context);
},
child: Container(
width: MediaQuery.of(context).size.width / 2,
child: Text(
“Log in”,
textAlign: TextAlign.center,
),
),
)
Something like this works for me.
The Following code work for me
ButtonTheme(
minWidth: double.infinity,
child: RaisedButton(child: Text("Click!!", style: TextStyle(color: Colors.white),), color: Colors.pink, onPressed: () {}))
This is working for me in a self contained widget.
Widget signinButton() {
return ButtonTheme(
minWidth: double.infinity,
child: new FlatButton(
onPressed: () {},
color: Colors.green[400],
textColor: Colors.white,
child: Text('Flat Button'),
),
);
}
// It can then be used in a class that contains a widget tree.
This is working for me.
SizedBox(
width: double.maxFinite,
child: RaisedButton(
materialTapTargetSize: MaterialTapTargetSize.shrinkWrap,
child: new Text("Button 2"),
color: Colors.lightBlueAccent,
onPressed: () => debugPrint("Button 2"),
),
),
RaisedButton(
child: Row(
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
children: [Text('Submit')],
)
)
It works for me.
With Flutter 2.0 RaisedButton is deprecated and replaced by ElevatedButton.
minimumSize property of ElevatedButton widget exactly does that.
Example code:
ElevatedButton(
style: ElevatedButton.styleFrom(
primary: Colors.green,
onPrimary: Colors.white,
shadowColor: Colors.greenAccent,
elevation: 3,
shape: RoundedRectangleBorder(
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(20.0)),
minimumSize: Size(100, 40), //////// HERE
),
onPressed: () {},
child: Text('MyButton'),
)
new SizedBox(
width: 100.0,
child: new RaisedButton(...),
)
Using a ListTile also works as well, since a list fills the entire width:
ListTile(
title: new RaisedButton(...),
),
This one worked for me
width: MediaQuery.of(context).size.width-100,
Wrap your (child widget having a fixed width) with a center widget. This will center your widget:
Center(child:Container(width:250,child:TextButton(child:Text("Button Name),),)
TextButton(
style: ButtonStyle(
backgroundColor: MaterialStateProperty.all(Colors.blue),
fixedSize: MaterialStateProperty.all(
Size(double.maxFinite, 50.0),
),
),
onPressed: () {},
child: Text('Upgrade to Premium'),
),
TRY
Flexible(
child: Row(
children: [
ElevatedButton(
onPressed: () {},
child: Text("love you}"),
),
],
),
),
