Widget of the Week playlist

AbsorbPointer

A widget that absorbs pointers during hit testing. When absorbing is true, this widget prevents its subtree from receiving pointer events by terminating hit testing at itself. It still consumes space during layout and paints its child as usual. It just prevents its children from being the target of located events, because it returns true from RenderBox.hitTest.

AlertDialog

Alerts are urgent interruptions requiring acknowledgement that inform the user about a situation. The AlertDialog widget implements this component.

Align

A widget that aligns its child within itself and optionally sizes itself based on the child's size.

AnimatedBuilder

A general-purpose widget for building animations. AnimatedBuilder is useful for more complex widgets that wish to include an animation as part of a larger build function. To use AnimatedBuilder, simply construct the widget and pass it a builder function.

AnimatedContainer

A container that gradually changes its values over a period of time.

AnimatedCrossFade

A widget that cross-fades between two given children and animates itself between their sizes.

AnimatedListState

The state for a scrolling container that animates items when they are inserted or removed.

AnimatedModalBarrier

A widget that prevents the user from interacting with widgets behind itself.

AnimatedOpacity

Animated version of Opacity which automatically transitions the child's opacity over a given duration whenever the given opacity changes.

DragTarget

A widget that receives data when a Draggable widget is dropped. When a draggable is dragged on top of a drag target, the drag target is asked whether it will accept the data the draggable is carrying. If the user does drop the draggable on top of the drag target (and the drag target has indicated that it will accept the draggable's data), then the drag target is asked to accept the draggable's data.

Draggable

A widget that can be dragged from to a DragTarget. When a draggable widget recognizes the start of a drag gesture, it displays a feedback widget that tracks the user's finger across the screen. If the user lifts their finger while on top of a DragTarget, that target is given the opportunity to accept the data carried by the draggable.

Expanded

A widget that expands a child of a Row, Column, or Flex.

ExpansionPanel

Expansion panels contain creation flows and allow lightweight editing of an element. The ExpansionPanel widget implements this component.

FadeTransition

Animates the opacity of a widget.

FractionalTranslation

A widget that applies a translation expressed as a fraction of the box's size before painting its child.

FractionallySizedBox

A widget that sizes its child to a fraction of the total available space. For more details about the layout algorithm, see RenderFractionallySizedOverflowBox.

FutureBuilder

IgnorePointer

A widget that is invisible during hit testing. When ignoring is true, this widget (and its subtree) is invisible to hit testing. It still consumes space during layout and paints its child as usual. It just cannot be the target of located events, because it returns false from RenderBox.hitTest.

Image

A widget that displays an image.

IndexedStack

A Stack that shows a single child from a list of children.

IntrinsicHeight

A widget that sizes its child to the child's intrinsic height.

IntrinsicWidth

MediaQuery

Establishes a subtree in which media queries resolve to the given data.

MergeSemantics

A widget that merges the semantics of its descendants.

Navigator

A widget that manages a set of child widgets with a stack discipline. Many apps have a navigator near the top of their widget hierarchy in order to display their logical history using an Overlay with the most recently visited pages visually on top of the older pages. Using this pattern lets the navigator visually transition from one page to another by moving the widgets around in the overlay. Similarly, the navigator can be used to show a dialog by positioning the dialog widget above the current page.

NestedScrollView

A scrolling view inside of which can be nested other scrolling views, with their scroll positions being intrinsically linked.

NotificationListener

A widget that listens for Notifications bubbling up the tree.

Offstage

The text to display is described using a tree of TextSpan objects, each of which has an associated style that is used for that subtree. The text might break across multiple lines or might all be displayed on the same line depending on the layout constraints.

RotatedBox

A widget that rotates its child by a integral number of quarter turns.

RotationTransition

Animates the rotation of a widget.

Semantics

A widget that annotates the widget tree with a description of the meaning of the widgets. Used by accessibility tools, search engines, and other semantic analysis software to determine the meaning of the application.

SimpleDialog

Simple dialogs can provide additional details or actions about a list item. For example they can display avatars icons clarifying subtext or orthogonal actions (such as adding an account).

SingleChildScrollView

A box in which a single widget can be scrolled. This widget is useful when you have a single box that will normally be entirely visible, for example a clock face in a time picker, but you need to make sure it can be scrolled if the container gets too small in one axis (the scroll direction).

SizeTransition

Animates its own size and clips and aligns the child.

SizedBox

A box with a specified size. If given a child, this widget forces its child to have a specific width and/or height (assuming values are permitted by this widget's parent). If either the width or height is null, this widget will size itself to match the child's size in that dimension.

SizedOverflowBox

A widget that is a specific size but passes its original constraints through to its child, which will probably overflow.

SlideTransition

Animates the position of a widget relative to its normal position.

Slider

Sliders let users select from a range of values by moving the slider thumb.

SliverAppBar

A material design app bar that integrates with a CustomScrollView.

Tooltips provide text labels that help explain the function of a button or other user interface action. Wrap the button in a Tooltip widget to show a label when the widget long pressed (or when the user takes some other appropriate action).

Transform

A widget that applies a transformation before painting its child.

WidgetsApp

A convenience class that wraps a number of widgets that are commonly required for an application.

Wrap

A widget that displays its children in multiple horizontal or vertical runs.
