APadding class

Physics-based equivalent of AnimatedPadding, renamed to APadding.

Animates changes in padding using physics-based animations, providing more natural and configurable transitions compared to curve-based animations.

{@macro ImplicitlyPhysicsAnimatedWidget}

{@tool snippet} This example shows a container that expands its padding with spring physics:

class _MyWidget extends StatefulWidget {
  @override
  State<_MyWidget> createState() => _MyWidgetState();
}

class _MyWidgetState extends State<_MyWidget> {
  bool _expanded = false;

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return APadding(
      physics: Spring.elegant,
      padding: EdgeInsets.all(_expanded ? 32.0 : 8.0),
      child: GestureDetector(
        onTap: () => setState(() => _expanded = !_expanded),
        child: Container(
          color: Colors.blue,
          child: const Center(child: Text('Tap me!')),
        ),
      ),
    );
  }
}

{@end-tool}
