AreaChartWidget class
A modern area chart widget with gradient fills and smooth animations.
This widget displays one or more data series as filled areas with optional points and interactive tooltips. Area charts are useful for showing cumulative values over time and comparing multiple series.
Features
- Multiple data series support with distinct colors
- Smooth entrance animations with easing curves
- Gradient area fills for visual appeal
- Interactive point tapping with haptic feedback
- Loading and error states with user-friendly messages
- Full theme support (light/dark mode)
- Glassmorphism and neumorphism effects
- Optimized rendering with RepaintBoundary
Example
AreaChartWidget(
dataSets: [
ChartDataSet(
color: Colors.blue,
label: 'January',
dataPoint: ChartDataPoint(x: 0, y: 100),
),
ChartDataSet(
color: Colors.blue,
label: 'February',
dataPoint: ChartDataPoint(x: 1, y: 150),
),
ChartDataSet(
color: Colors.blue,
label: 'March',
dataPoint: ChartDataPoint(x: 2, y: 200),
),
],
theme: ChartTheme.light(),
title: 'Active Users',
subtitle: 'Monthly growth',
onPointTap: (point, datasetIndex, pointIndex, position) {
print('Tapped: ${point.y}');
showContextMenu(position);
},
)
Performance Tips
- Use RepaintBoundary around multiple charts to isolate repaints
- Cache data sets when possible to avoid unnecessary rebuilds
- Consider using isLoading during data fetching
