PickerTabBar class

A Material Design primary tab bar.

Primary tabs are placed at the top of the content pane under a top app bar. They display the main content destinations.

Typically created as the AppBar.bottom part of an AppBar and in conjunction with a PickerTabBarView.

If a TabController is not provided, then a DefaultTabController ancestor must be provided instead. The tab controller's TabController.length must equal the length of the tabs list and the length of the PickerTabBarView.children list.

Requires one of its ancestors to be a Material widget.

Uses values from TabBarTheme if it is set in the current context.

{@tool dartpad} This sample shows the implementation of PickerTabBar and PickerTabBarView using a DefaultTabController. Each PickerTab corresponds to a child of the PickerTabBarView in the order they are written.

** See code in examples/api/lib/material/tabs/tab_bar.0.dart ** {@end-tool}

{@tool dartpad} PickerTabBar can also be implemented by using a TabController which provides more options to control the behavior of the PickerTabBar and PickerTabBarView. This can be used instead of a DefaultTabController, demonstrated below.

** See code in examples/api/lib/material/tabs/tab_bar.1.dart ** {@end-tool}

{@tool dartpad} This sample showcases nested Material 3 PickerTabBars. It consists of a primary PickerTabBar with nested a secondary PickerTabBar. The primary PickerTabBar uses a DefaultTabController while the secondary PickerTabBar uses a TabController.

** See code in examples/api/lib/material/tabs/tab_bar.2.dart ** {@end-tool}
