EscapablePadding class

A widget that allows its child or children to escape the constraints of a parent's padding.

This widget provides two modes:

Default Constructor:

  • Used for multiple children.
  • Applies padding around each child unless it is wrapped in an Escaped widget.
  • Requires padding, children, and a builder.

Lite Constructor:

  • Used for a single child to escape horizontal constraints.
  • Requires height and child.

Example

Default Usage:

EscapablePadding(
  padding: const EdgeInsets.all(16),
  children: [
    const Text('Normal padded child'),
    Escaped(
      child: Container(
        color: Colors.red,
        child: const Text('No padding here!'),
      ),
    ),
  ],
  builder: (context, children) => Column(children: children),
)

Lite Usage:

Padding(
  padding: const EdgeInsets.symmetric(horizontal: 24),
  child: EscapablePadding.lite(
    height: 100,
    child: Container(
      width: 500,
      color: Colors.blue,
      child: const Text('Escaping horizontal padding!'),
    ),
  ),
)
