InkWellModifier class
A rectangular area of a Material that responds to touch.
For a variant of this widget that does not clip splashes, see InkResponse.
The following diagram shows how an InkWell looks when tapped, when using default values.
The InkWell widget must have a Material widget as an ancestor. The Material widget is where the ink reactions are actually painted. This matches the Material Design premise wherein the Material is what is actually reacting to touches by spreading ink.
If a Widget uses this class directly, it should include the following line at the top of its build function to call debugCheckHasMaterial:
assert(debugCheckHasMaterial(context));
Troubleshooting
The ink splashes aren't visible!
If there is an opaque graphic, e.g. painted using a Container, Image, or DecoratedBox, between the Material widget and the InkWell widget, then the splash won't be visible because it will be under the opaque graphic. This is because ink splashes draw on the underlying Material itself, as if the ink was spreading inside the material.
The Ink widget can be used as a replacement for Image, Container, or DecoratedBox to ensure that the image or decoration also paints in the Material itself, below the ink.
If this is not possible for some reason, e.g. because you are using an opaque CustomPaint widget, alternatively consider using a second Material above the opaque widget but below the InkWell (as an ancestor to the ink well). The MaterialType.transparency material kind can be used for this purpose.
InkWell isn't clipping properly
If you want to clip an InkWell or any Ink widgets you need to keep in mind that the Material that the Ink will be printed on is responsible for clipping. This means you can't wrap the Ink widget in a clipping widget directly, since this will leave the Material not clipped (and by extension the printed Ink widgets as well).
An easy solution is to deliberately wrap the Ink widgets you want to clip in a Material, and wrap that in a clipping widget instead. See Ink for an example.
The ink splashes don't track the size of an animated container
If the size of an InkWell's Material ancestor changes while the InkWell's splashes are expanding, you may notice that the splashes aren't clipped correctly. This can't be avoided.
An example of this situation is as follows:
{@tool dartpad} Tap the container to cause it to grow. Then, tap it again and hold before the widget reaches its maximum size to observe the clipped ink splash.
** See code in examples/api/lib/material/ink_well/ink_well.0.dart ** {@end-tool}
An InkWell's splashes will not properly update to conform to changes if the size of its underlying Material, where the splashes are rendered, changes during animation. You should avoid using InkWells within Material widgets that are changing size.

-
Whether to exclude the gestures introduced by this widget from the
semantics tree.
finalinherited
- focusColor → Color?
-
The color of the ink response when the parent widget is focused. If this

null then the highlight color of the theme, ThemeData.highlightColor,
will be used.
finalinherited

-
The shape (e.g., circle, rectangle) to use for the highlight drawn around
this part of the material when pressed, hovered over, or focused.
finalinherited

The color of the ink response when a pointer is hovering over it. If this
property is null then the hover color of the theme,
ThemeData.hoverColor, will be used.
finalinherited
