Trying to get the Column within the Row to take the full height of the Row (as seen in the image)
The Column takes the min height needed but surely there's a way to make it expand the full height of the Row widget? I tried using Expanded but that didn't work.
I want it to take the full height of the Row as then the elements within the Column can be alignment according to mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.spaceBetween but at the moment as it takes the min height the elements are all be bunched up together.
return new Container(
child: ListView(
children: <Widget>[
Column(
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
children: <Widget>[
Padding(
padding: EdgeInsets.all(20),
child: Text(
client.days[0].dayofLog,

fontSize: 35,
color: Colors.black,
fontWeight: FontWeight.bold),
)),
Row(
crossAxisAlignment: CrossAxisAlignment.start,
children: <Widget>[
new AnimatedCircularChart(
key: _chartKey,
size: const Size(300.0, 300.0),
initialChartData: buildGraphElements(client),
chartType: CircularChartType.Radial,
edgeStyle: SegmentEdgeStyle.round,

new Container(

),
],

],
));
row size image
expanded size image
Try using:
final screenWidth = MediaQuery.of(context).size.width;
final screenHeight = MediaQuery.of(context).size.height;
and at the time of assigning them to your variables you can multiply them by the% of screen you create as necessary.
If possible post a photo with the expected result.

My design
I'm using the responsive_framework package, but when I reduce the height, all the widgets resizing, and I get overflows. The design I'm trying to make is like the following GIF the design that I want
Just like in responsive sites, I want the widgets to be fixed and only scrollable, no matter how much the height decreases.
Any trick or document to do this ?
The overall height on shrink is greater than height: screenH * 0.1, you can include extra pixels like height: 10+ (screenH * 0.1) But you can just include fixed height here. Like on item, you can choose minimum fixed height like 64, and you don't to have to worry about making larger. You can also check your attached GIF row height doesn't change.
Second option is wrapping Text with FittedBox widget, or using auto_size_text.
I'd like to have a column take the width of the content, and have some elements align to right and some to the left.
Is this possible?
If I use Align widget on the children the whole column stretches in width. Is there another way?
Thank you
Edit: Example
Center(
child: Container(
color: Colors.yellow,
child: Column(
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
children: [
Container(
color: Colors.red,
width: 50,
height: 50,
),
Text('Here goes some text with variable length'),
Container(
color: Colors.blue,
width: 50,
height: 50,
),
],
),
),
);
I want the column above with the red square to the left and the blue to the right (and the column not stretching to the available width).
Try this-
Center(
child: Container(
color: Colors.yellow,
child: Column(
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
children: [
Row(
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.start,
children: [
Container(
color: Colors.red,
width: 50,
height: 50,
),
],
),
SizedBox(width: 100),
Row(
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.end,
children: [
Container(
color: Colors.blue,
width: 50,
height: 50,
),
],
),
],
),
),
)
You can simply try to put the contents of the column in a row, so you would have elements inside containers for their width and height as you like.
Column -> Row -> aligned containers.
Here is my widget:
return Card(
child: Container(
height: 150,
child: Row(
children: <Widget>[
Placeholder(
fallbackHeight: 100,
fallbackWidth: 100,
),
Container(
width: _deviceHeight,
color: Colors.red,
child: Column(
mainAxisSize: MainAxisSize.max,
children: <Widget>[
Flexible(
child: Text(
"aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaasssssaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa",
overflow: TextOverflow.ellipsis,
maxLines: 4,
)),
// Expanded(flex: 8, child: Text("bbb")),
Flexible(child: Text("bbb")),
// Flexible(child: Text("aaa")),
],
),
)
],
),
));
I expected that text will be placed on new line, but I am getting overflow:
Wrap your inner Container with an Expanded to provide it with the available parent constraints, otherwise the Container has infinite height and will result in an overflow (because you are on landscape).
Expanded(
child: Container(
width: _deviceHeight,
color: Colors.red,
child: Column(
...
You could wrap the second element of the Row with Flexible, like this:
Row(
children: <Widget>[
Placeholder(..),
Flexible(
child: Container(
color: Colors.red,
child: Column(...
Inside the Row you need Placeholder to keep its width and Container width to be flexible.
Edit: And you should remove the width of the Container, since it would be flexible and it should take as much as possible to fit the screen.
I need a Container with some text in to auto expand. I have an API call, which can be anything from 5 words to 500 words. I don't want to just have 1 fixed size that's huge, but contains 10 words.
I have tried Expanded() and SizedBox.Expand(), but I might be using them wrong
Card(
elevation: defaultTargetPlatform ==
TargetPlatform.android ? 5.0 : 0.0,
child: Column(
children: <Widget>[
Container(
margin: const EdgeInsets.all(0.0),
padding: const EdgeInsets.all(2.0),
decoration: BoxDecoration(color: Colors.black),
width: _screenSize.width,
height: 250,
child: Column(
children: <Widget>[
Container(
color: Colors.black,
width: _screenSize.width,
height: 35,
child: Padding(
padding: const EdgeInsets.only(
left: 15, top: 11),
child: Text("Title".toUpperCase(),
style: TextStyle(
color: Colors.white
),
),
),
),
Container(
color: Colors.white,
width: _screenSize.width,
height: 210,
child: Column(
crossAxisAlignment: CrossAxisAlignment.center,
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.start,
children: <Widget>[
Padding(
padding: const EdgeInsets.only(top: 8, bottom: 5),
child: Text("Title of expanding text", style: TextStyle(
fontSize: 25,
),
),
),
Text("Expanding text", style: TextStyle(
fontSize: 35,
fontWeight: FontWeight.w800
),),
],
),
),
],
),
),
],
),
),
I just need the Container to expand, but stay small/get bigger
Have you tried not specifying height at all? The Container should wrap according to the child in this case.
Otherwise, the widget has a child but no height, no width, no
constraints, and no alignment, and the Container passes the
constraints from the parent to the child and sizes itself to match the
child.
Above is an extract from the official flutter documentation for Container.
Here is the official flutter documentation link.
You can use FittedBox, this will resize your text according to available area.
You can use it like this :
FittedBox(child: Text('...............Your text...............'));
I would suggest you to use Constraints...this will set Container height according to the Text child's requirement. Please see the example...
Container(
constraints: BoxConstraints(
maxHeight: double.infinity,
),
child: Column(
children: [
Text(
'Hello flutter...i like flutter...i like google...',
softWrap: true,
style: TextStyle(
color: Colors.white, fontSize: 20 , ),
),],),)
we just neeed to add mainAxisSize: MainAxisSize.min, properties inside child Column or Row where the child is set to Container
for example
AnythingYourWidget(
child: Container(
child: Column( // For Example Column
mainAxisSize: MainAxisSize.min, // these properties following the children content height available.
children: [
// YourWidget
]
)
)
),
I too had a container with a text widget inside that would not scale as the text increased in character count. Make the widget tree Container -> IntrinsicWidth -> Text/TextField and it seems to play nicely for me.
IntrinsicWidth will scale the size of the container to its child.
I have a Row containing a small image followed by a Text. I'm trying to set a fix space between those 2 widgets (for the moment they are stuck one after the other). That should be something simple but I don't know a nice way to do it...
Here is my code:
Widget displayRow(String imageName, String text, TextStyle textStyle) {
Widget widget = Container(
margin: const EdgeInsets.symmetric(vertical: 8.0),
color: Colors.green,
child: Row (
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.start,
children: <Widget>[
Image.asset(
"images/${imageName}",
width: 32.0,
height: 32.0,
alignment: Alignment.center,
fit: BoxFit.scaleDown
),
Text(text, style: textStyle),
],
),
height: 120.0,
);
return widget;
}
I have put this code in a function because I intend to use it several times to display different rows all on the same pattern (an image + a text).
Thanks for the help
You can use a Container with a relatively small width:
Widget displayRow(String imageName, String text, TextStyle textStyle) {
Widget widget = Container(
margin: const EdgeInsets.symmetric(vertical: 8.0),
color: Colors.green,
child: Row (
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.start,
children: <Widget>[
Image.asset(
"images/${imageName}",
width: 32.0,
height: 32.0,
alignment: Alignment.center,
fit: BoxFit.scaleDown
),
Container(width: 10.0), // You can adjust it to suit your design
Text(text, style: textStyle),
],
),
height: 120.0,
);
return widget;
}
You can also opt for wrapping the Image widget inside a Container and giving it a certain padding :
Container(
padding: EdgeInsets.all(15.0),
child: Image.asset(
"images/${imageName}",
width: 32.0,
height: 32.0,
alignment: Alignment.center,
fit: BoxFit.scaleDown
),
),
