How to make a floating AppBar in Flutter? - flutter

Question

I want to make a floating AppBar in Flutter that overlays on my UI and dismisses when the user scrolls up. I have tried using this dependency - https://pub.dev/packages/material_floating_search_bar but this is only for searching through something.
Update:
This is my code -
DefaultTabController(
length: 2,
child: Scaffold(
body: Stack(
children: [
Positioned(
top: 15,
left: 15,
right: 15,
child: SafeArea(
child: ClipRRect(
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(12),
child: AppBar(
title: Text('Hello', style: kTasksStyle),
centerTitle: true,
backgroundColor: kGreen,
),
),
),
),
],
)),
);
How do I add a TabBar in the bottom parameter of AppBar?

Answer 1

You could use a Stack, with your content and the App bar as children.
For dismissing on scroll you can hide the app bar depending on the offset of your ScrollController or use an Animation.

Screenshot:
For simplicity, I used a ListView.
Code:
class _MainPageState extends State<HomePage> {
final double _appBarHeight = 56;
final double _topPadding = 20;
ScrollController _controller;
double _opacity = 1;
#override
void initState() {
super.initState();
_controller = ScrollController();
_controller.addListener(_listener);
}
#override
void dispose() {
_controller.dispose();
super.dispose();
}
void _listener() {
final offset = _controller.offset;
if (offset > _appBarHeight) {
if (_opacity != 0) {
setState(() {
_opacity = 0;
if (_opacity < 0) _opacity = 0;
});
}
} else {
setState(() {
_opacity = 1 - (offset / _appBarHeight);
if (_opacity > 1) _opacity = 1;
});
}
}
Widget get _mainContent {
return ListView.builder(
controller: _controller,
padding: EdgeInsets.only(top: _topPadding + _appBarHeight),
itemCount: 20,
itemBuilder: (_, i) => ListTile(title: Text('Item $i')),
);
}
Widget get _appBar {
return Opacity(
opacity: _opacity,
child: SizedBox.fromSize(
size: Size.fromHeight(_appBarHeight),
child: AppBar(
title: Text('AppBar'),
centerTitle: false,
backgroundColor: Colors.grey,
leading: Icon(Icons.menu),
actions: [
IconButton(
icon: Icon(Icons.place),
onPressed: () {},
)
],
),
),
);
}
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Scaffold(
body: Stack(
children: [
_mainContent,
Positioned(
top: _topPadding,
left: 0,
right: 0,
child: _appBar,
),
],
),
);
}
}
