debugRenderObjectPassthrough property

bool get debugRenderObjectPassthrough

Whether this widget is intentionally transparent to render-object layouts.

Render-object parents (for example Row, Column, and Stack) flatten non-render descendants to collect concrete render objects. Widgets that extend Widget directly and rely on view for visual output are dropped during that flattening step. Such visual wrappers should instead extend StatelessWidget, StatefulWidget, or RenderObjectWidget.

Set this to true only for wrappers that deliberately pass through all rendering to descendants (for example flex/stack parent-data wrappers).

Implementation

bool get debugRenderObjectPassthrough => false;
