A widget that automatically resizes text to fit perfectly within its bounds.

Usage #

AutoSizeText behaves exactly like a Text. The only difference is that it resizes text to fit within its bounds.

AutoSizeText("The text to display",
  style: TextStyle(fontSize:20.0),
  maxlines: 2,
)

maxlines #

The maxlines parameter works like you are used to with the Text widget. If there is no maxlines parameter specified, the AutoSizeText only fits the text according to the available width and height.

AutoSizeText(
  "A really long String",
  style: TextStyle(fontSize: 30.0),
  maxLines: 2,
)

Sample above

minFontSize & maxFontSize #

With minFontSize you can specify the smallest possible font size. If the text still not fits, it will be handled according to overflow. The default minFontSize is 12.0.

maxFontSize sets the largest passible font size. This is useful if the TextStyle inherits the font size and you want to constrain it.

AutoSizeText(
  "A really long String",
  style: TextStyle(fontSize: 30.0),
  minFontSize: 18.0,
  maxLines: 4,
  overflow: TextOverflow.ellipsis,
)

stepGranularity #

The AutoSizeText will try each font size, starting with TextStyle.fontSize until the text fits within its bounds.
stepGranularity specifies how much the font size is decreased each step. Usually, this value should not be below 1.0 for best performance.

AutoSizeText(
  "A really long String",
  style: TextStyle(fontSize: 40.0),
  minFontSize: 10.0,
  stepGranularity: 10.0,
  maxLines: 4,
  overflow: TextOverflow.ellipsis,
)

presetFontSizes #

If you want to allow only specific font sizes, you can set them with presetFontSizes. If presetFontSizes is set, minFontSize, maxFontSize and stepGranularity will be ignored.

AutoSizeText(
  "A really long String",
  presetFontSizes: [40.0, 20.0, 14.0],
  maxLines: 4,
)

Troubleshooting #

If AutoSizeText overflows or does not resize the text, you should check if it has constraint width / height.

Wrong code:

class MyPage extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Row(
      children: <Widget>[
        AutoSizeText("Here is a very long text, which should be resized",
          maxlines: 1,
        ),
      ],
    );
  }
}

Because Row does not constrain the width of its children, the text will overflow.

Correct code:

class MyPage extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Row(
      children: <Widget>[
        Expanded( // Constrains AutoSizeText to the width of the Row
          child: AutoSizeText(
            "Here is a very long text, which should be resized",
            maxlines: 1,
          )
        ),
      ],
    );
  }
}
