Box class

Inheritance

Constructors

Box({Key? key, bool show = true, Color? color, EdgeInsetsGeometry? padding, double? width, double? height, AlignmentGeometry? alignment, Widget? child, bool removePaddingWhenNoChild = false})
Box is something between a Container and a SizedBox. Unlike a Container it can be made const, so it's good for creating colored boxes, with or without padding:
const
Box.b({Key? key, bool show = true, Color? color, EdgeInsetsGeometry? padding, double? width, double? height, Alignment? alignment, Widget? child, bool removePaddingWhenNoChild = false})
Adding .b to the box will make it blue. Use this for debugging purposes only. This constructor is marked as deprecated so that you don't forget to remove it.
const
Box.g({Key? key, bool show = true, Color? color, EdgeInsetsGeometry? padding, double? width, double? height, Alignment? alignment, Widget? child, bool removePaddingWhenNoChild = false})
Adding .g to the box will make it green. Use this for debugging purposes only. This constructor is marked as deprecated so that you don't forget to remove it.
const
Box.r({Key? key, bool show = true, Color? color, EdgeInsetsGeometry? padding, double? width, double? height, Alignment? alignment, Widget? child, bool removePaddingWhenNoChild = false})
Adding .r to the box will make it red. Use this for debugging purposes only. This constructor is marked as deprecated so that you don't forget to remove it.
const
Box.rand({Key? key, bool show = true, Color? color, EdgeInsetsGeometry? padding, double? width, double? height, AlignmentGeometry? alignment, Widget? child, bool removePaddingWhenNoChild = false})
Use the Box.rand constructor to see when the widget rebuilds. It will change its color to a random one, whenever its build method is called. This constructor is marked as deprecated so that you don't forget to remove it.
const
Box.y({Key? key, bool show = true, Color? color, EdgeInsetsGeometry? padding, double? width, double? height, Alignment? alignment, Widget? child, bool removePaddingWhenNoChild = false})
Adding .y to the box will make it yellow. Use this for debugging purposes only. This constructor is marked as deprecated so that you don't forget to remove it.

Methods

add({double? width, double? height}) Box
Returns a box with its width or height increased by width or height (or decreased if the given width or height are negative, clamped to zero).
build(BuildContext context) Widget
Describes the part of the user interface represented by this widget.
override
copyWith({Key? key, bool? show, Color? color, EdgeInsetsGeometry? padding, double? width, double? height, AlignmentGeometry? alignment, bool? random, Widget? child}) Box
Creates a copy of this Box but with the given fields replaced with the new values.
createElement() StatelessElement
Creates a StatelessElement to manage this widget's location in the tree.
inherited
debugDescribeChildren() List<DiagnosticsNode>
Returns a list of DiagnosticsNode objects describing this node's children.
inherited
debugFillProperties(DiagnosticPropertiesBuilder properties) → void
Add additional properties associated with the node.
override
noSuchMethod(Invocation invocation) → dynamic
Invoked when a nonexistent method or property is accessed.
inherited
subtract({double? width, double? height}) Box
Returns a box with its width or height decreased by width or height (clamped to zero).
toDiagnosticsNode({String? name, DiagnosticsTreeStyle? style}) DiagnosticsNode
Returns a debug representation of the object that is used by debugging tools and by DiagnosticsNode.toStringDeep.
inherited
toString({DiagnosticLevel minLevel = DiagnosticLevel.info}) String
A string representation of this object.
inherited
toStringDeep({String prefixLineOne = '', String? prefixOtherLines, DiagnosticLevel minLevel = DiagnosticLevel.debug}) String
Returns a string representation of this node and its descendants.
inherited
toStringShallow({String joiner = ', ', DiagnosticLevel minLevel = DiagnosticLevel.debug}) String
Returns a one-line detailed description of the object.
inherited
toStringShort() String
A short, textual description of this widget.

Operators

operator +(Object? obj) Box
You can create boxes by adding a Box to one these types: bool, Color, EdgeInsetsGeometry, AlignmentGeometry, or Widget.
