SelectionContainerModifier class

A container that handles SelectionEvents for the Selectables in the subtree.

This widget is useful when one wants to customize selection behaviors for a group of Selectables

The state of this container is a single selectable and will register itself to the registrar if provided. Otherwise, it will register to the SelectionRegistrar from the context.

The containers handle the SelectionEvents from the registered SelectionRegistrar and delegate the events to the delegate.

This widget uses SelectionRegistrarScope to host the delegate as the SelectionRegistrar for the subtree to collect the Selectables, and SelectionEvents received by this container are sent to the delegate using the SelectionHandler API of the delegate.

{@tool dartpad} This sample demonstrates how to create a SelectionContainer that only allows selecting everything or nothing with no partial selection.

** See code in examples/api/lib/material/selection_area/custom_container.dart ** {@end-tool}
