SImple expandable list gives bottom overflowed by x pixels - flutter

I created a nice simple expandable list. It should work like a radio list, you should be able to pick just one element. I did not implement this part yet, because I'm having a problem with the size of the list:
class ExpandableListRadio extends StatefulWidget {
ExpandableListRadio({
Key key,
this.options,
this.expandedHeight,
this.listName,
this.expanded,
}) : super(key: key);
List<String> options;
String listName;
double expandedHeight;
bool expanded;
#override
_ExpandableLisRadioState createState() => _ExpandableLisRadioState();
}
class _ExpandableLisRadioState extends State<ExpandableListRadio> {
List<Widget> buildListChildren() {
List<Widget> l = new List<Widget>();
for (var i = 0; i < widget.options.length; i++) {
Widget w = Container(
//width: double.infinity,
//height: 30,
margin: const EdgeInsets.only(left: 3, right: 3, top: 2),
child: Row(
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.spaceBetween,
children: [
Text(widget.options[i],
style: TextStyle(
fontSize: 12,
fontWeight: FontWeight.w700,
fontFamily: 'Roboto',
color: Colors.white)),
ClipOval(
child: Container(color: Colors.grey, width: 15, height: 15),
)
],
));
l.add(w);
}
return l;
}
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Container(
child: Column(
children: [
GestureDetector(
behavior: HitTestBehavior.opaque,
onTap: () => {
setState(() {
if (widget.expanded != null)
widget.expanded = !widget.expanded;
else
widget.expanded = false;
})
},
child: Container(
height: 20,
decoration: BoxDecoration(
color: Colors.grey, borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(2)),
child: Container(
margin: const EdgeInsets.only(left: 5, right: 5),
child: Row(
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.spaceBetween,
children: [
Text(widget.listName,
style: TextStyle(
color: Color(0xFF555555),
fontSize: 13,
fontWeight: FontWeight.w700,
fontFamily: 'Roboto',
)),
widget.expanded != null && widget.expanded
? Icon(
Icons.arrow_upward,
size: 14,
color: Color(0xFF555555),
)
: Icon(
Icons.arrow_downward,
size: 14,
color: Color(0xFF555555),
)
],
)),
),
),
widget.expanded != null && widget.expanded
? (Container(
height: widget.expandedHeight,
color: Colors.transparent,
child: Column(children: [
ListView(
shrinkWrap: true,
children: buildListChildren(),
),
]),
))
: Container()
],
),
);
}
}
If the ExpandableListRadio height is less than the ListView, I get a bottom overflowed by x pixels. I made sure to add shirnkwrap: true to my ListView so this wouldn't happen, but it's still happening.

I would use SingleChildScrollView instead in this scenario.
The code for the last part:
widget.expanded != null && widget.expanded
? (SingleChildScrollView(
child: Column(children: [
buildListChildren(),
]),
))
: Container()

I tried using constructor to pass "listOfCustomers" from InactiveCustomersListView widget to MessageCustomerHeader widget
And also passing "checkAll" from MessageCustomerHeader to InactiveCustomersListView widget by also using constructors.
The problem is having is that when i click on the checkbox in MessageCustomerHeader widget to check all the check boxes in InactiveCustomersListView widget, the state don't seem to change and it doesn't even after setting all the logic. What am i doing wrong guys and how do i resolve this issue :(
This is the error i get when i tap the checkbox on the MessageCustomerHeader checkbox.
"The method 'forEach' was called on null.
Receiver: null
Tried calling: forEach(Closure: (CheckBoxModel) => Null)"
Thank you.
If you have the proper lints enabled you would have seen this warning: DON'T put any logic in createState().
From the associated description:
Implementations of createState() should return a new instance of a State object and do nothing more. Since state access is preferred via the widget field, passing data to State objects using custom constructor parameters should also be avoided and so further, the State constructor is required to be passed no arguments.
(emphasis added)
You are passing arguments to your State constructors. Instead, use widget.checkAll and widget.listOfCustomers to access widget properties from the state objects.
Also:
It would be better to specify a type for checkAll. In your code you just have final checkAll;.
It is difficult to read the screen shot of the error message. It would be better to include the error message as text in the question, along with an indication in your code of the line to which the error message is referring.

How do i correctly position these items horizontally in flutter to avoid overflow?

I have a list of items that are responsible for a tab bar design, i want to make all the sizedboxes display at a go and not overflow horizontally.
I will give my code for better clarification.
This is what i could come up with after over an hour of tussle:
And this is what i am expecting
I will give my code snippets of the view below.

The reason for overflow is List View Builder. Remove it and add a Row widget instead. Iterate the list item in it and you will get your desired output.

Output : -
Hey there for making the appbar not overflowing, you must use expanded widget. try to wrap your gestureDetector or whatever widget that you create for making the design for each listview child like this
Expanded(
child: GestureDetector(
onTap: () {
setState(() {
current = i;
});
},
child: AnimatedContainer(
height: 40,
duration: const Duration(milliseconds: 300),
margin: const EdgeInsets.all(5),
padding: const EdgeInsets.only(
left: 15.0, right: 15.0, top: 5, bottom: 5),
decoration: BoxDecoration(
color: current == i
? const Color(0xff34495E)
: const Color(0xffF5F5F5),
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(11),
),
child: Center(
child: Text(
items[i],
style: GoogleFonts.poppins(
fontSize: 12,
fontWeight: FontWeight.w500,
color: current == i ? Colors.white : Colors.grey),
),
),
),
),
),
as you can see when you doing this the design will look like this
the text inside of the design would gone because of overflowing issue, you can change the text widget into this widget https://pub.dev/packages/auto_size_text
this is the snipet
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Scaffold(
backgroundColor: Colors.grey,
body: SafeArea(
child: Padding(
padding: const EdgeInsets.only(left: 5.0, right: 5, top: 20),
child: Row(
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.spaceBetween,
children: [
for (int i = 0; i < items.length; i++) ...[
Expanded(
child: GestureDetector(
onTap: () {
setState(() {
current = i;
});
},
child: AnimatedContainer(
height: 40,
duration: const Duration(milliseconds: 300),
margin: const EdgeInsets.all(5),
padding: const EdgeInsets.only(
left: 5.0, right: 5.0, top: 5, bottom: 5),
decoration: BoxDecoration(
color: current == i
? const Color(0xff34495E)
: const Color(0xffF5F5F5),
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(11),
),
child: Center(
child: AutoSizeText(
items[i],
maxLines: 1,
style: GoogleFonts.poppins(
fontSize: 12,
fontWeight: FontWeight.w500,
color:
current == i ? Colors.white : Colors.grey),
),
),
),
),
),
]
],
),
),
));
but surely the text would be some of big and some of small look like this, and this is the result

Dynamically created widgets using json Data in listvew builder the TextFeild not working in flutter

I have created a list of the widgets using JSON data, I have five types of widgets, and each widget is added to the list depending on the JSON data, but the issue is with the widget includes a text field, All widget displays ok but once I click on the text field the keyboard appears and disappears immediately and gives this error "Exception caught by widgets library" => "Incorrect use of ParentDataWidget."
I try removing everything and adding just this text field widget in the list, but it still not working right. Please guide me on where am doing wrong.

TextFields usually try to expand to the available width. This can be problematic in a Column where usually only height is fixed and the Textfield tries to expand into infinity. You should try wrapping the TextField in a Widget that gives it a fixed width like a SizedBox.

Widget not redrawing despite Setstate & UniqueKey

I have this code for selecting options in a product page.
The index is updating well, but the color of the selected option refuses to change (as well as the name of the selected option on the right -- see the image below), and i can't figure why..
I have tried to use Setstate(), and to use unique keys for the related parent widgets
Here the image:
import 'package:animate_do/animate_do.dart';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:prem_market/models/product.dart';

const DisplayAttributes({
Key key,
this.data,
Function onChanged,
}) : super(key: key);
final Product data;
#override
_DisplayAttributesState createState() => _DisplayAttributesState();
}
class _DisplayAttributesState extends State<DisplayAttributes> {
#override
void initState() {
super.initState();
}
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
int activeOption = 0;
return Column(
children: [
...List.generate(
this.widget.data.attributes.length,
(index) => !this.widget.data.attributes[index].variation

You are resetting activeOption to 0 in build function make it a global variable. Everytime you call setState() build method is called which again resets it to 0
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
int activeOption = 0;
to
int activeOption = 0;
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {

Change state from another widget in flutter?

I am trying to make a cart icon with a text of the number of items in the cart. This requires a state refresh when state refreshes in another widget. Even though not recommended, I tried setState(), but as warned the widget was not mounted so setState() was called on null.
Then I came to know about Value listenable from this post How to set state from another widget?
I tried this, but it says "NoSuchMethodError: the getter 'value' was called on null, maybe my implementation was wrong.
heres my code:
var menuJson = [];
var isLoading = true;
class CartIcon extends StatefulWidget {
const CartIcon({Key key2}) : super(key: key2);
#override
_CartIcon createState() => _CartIcon();
}
class _CartIcon extends State<CartIcon> {
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
var filteredList = List();
for (var item in menuJson) {
if (item["quantity"] > 0) {
filteredList.add(item);
}
}
return Padding(
padding: const EdgeInsets.only(top: 35, right: 8),
child: Container(
width: AppBar().preferredSize.height - 12,
height: AppBar().preferredSize.height - 12,
color: Colors.pink,
child: Material(
color: Colors.transparent,
child: InkWell(
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(AppBar().preferredSize.height),
child: Stack(
children: <Widget>[
IconButton(
icon: Icon(
Icons.shopping_cart,
color: Colors.white,
),
onPressed: null,
),
filteredList.length == 0
? Container()
: Positioned(
child: Stack(
children: <Widget>[
Icon(Icons.brightness_1,
size: 20.0, color: Colors.green[800]),
Positioned(
top: 3.0,
right: 4.0,
child: Text(
filteredList.length.toString(),
style: TextStyle(
color: Colors.white,
fontSize: 11.0,
fontWeight: FontWeight.w500),
))
],
)),
],
),
onTap: () {
Navigator.push(
context,
MaterialPageRoute(builder: (context) => CartPage()),
);
},
),
),
),
);
}
}
class Salads extends StatefulWidget {
const Salads({Key key2}) : super(key: key2);
#override
_Salads createState() => _Salads();
}
class _Salads extends State<Salads> {
final _counter = new ValueNotifier(0);
plus(index) {
var quant = menuJson[index]["quantity"];
quant++;
menuJson[index]["quantity"] = quant;
setState(() {});
}
minus(index) {
var quant = menuJson[index]["quantity"];
quant--;
if (quant < 0) {
quant = 0;
}
menuJson[index]["quantity"] = quant;
setState(() {});
}
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
var filteredList = List();
for (var item in menuJson) {
if (item["category_name"] == "Salads") {
filteredList.add(item);
}
}
if (isLoading) {
return Center(
child: new CircularProgressIndicator(),
);
} else {
return Container(
color: Colors.green,
child: ListView.builder(
itemCount: filteredList.length,
itemBuilder: (context, index) {
return Card(
child: Padding(
padding: const EdgeInsets.only(
top: 10.0, bottom: 10.0, left: 10.0, right: 10.0),
child: Column(
crossAxisAlignment: CrossAxisAlignment.start,
children: <Widget>[
Row(
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.spaceBetween,
children: [
Container(
padding: EdgeInsets.only(
left: 5, top: 5, bottom: 30),
child: Text(
filteredList[index]["dish_name"],
style: TextStyle(fontSize: 20),
textAlign: TextAlign.left,
),
),
Container(
padding: EdgeInsets.only(
right: 5, top: 5, bottom: 30),
child: Text(
'\u{20B9} ' +
filteredList[index]["price"]
.toString(),
style: TextStyle(
color: Colors.grey.shade600,
fontSize: 20),
textAlign: TextAlign.right,
)),
]),
Row(
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.end,
children: <Widget>[
RawMaterialButton(
onPressed: () =>
plus(filteredList[index]["index"]),
child: new Icon(
Icons.add,
color: Colors.black,
),
fillColor: Colors.white,
shape: CircleBorder(),
),
Text(filteredList[index]["quantity"].toString(),
style: new TextStyle(fontSize: 40.0)),
RawMaterialButton(
onPressed: () =>
minus(filteredList[index]["index"]),
child: new Icon(
const IconData(0xe15b,
fontFamily: 'MaterialIcons'),
color: Colors.black,
),
fillColor: Colors.white,
shape: CircleBorder(),
padding: EdgeInsets.all(0),
)
])
],
)));
}),
);
}
}
}
Since cart icon is in the app bar, it is higher in the widget tree.
How can I make such that when + is pressed in 'Salads' the CartIcon state updates in the appbar? Right now it updates the state when i tap on the cart button.
Maybe use a Global Key?
GlobalKey<_CartIcon> cartKey = GlobalKey<_CartIcon>();
When making your CartIcon insert the globalKey.
Make a new Method inside _CartIcon:
refresh(){
setState((){})
}
and when you want to refresh your CartIcon call:
cartKey.currentState.refresh();
