syncfusion_flutter_sliders 23.2.7

A Flutter Sliders library for creating highly customizable and UI-rich slider, range slider, and range selector widgets for filtering purposes.

Flutter Sliders library

The Flutter Sliders package is written natively in Dart for creating highly interactive and UI-rich slider widgets for filtering purposes in Flutter applications.

Overview

This library is used to create three different types of sliders, namely slider, range slider, and range selector. All these sliders have a rich set of features such as support for both numeric and date values, tooltip, labels, and ticks. The range selector latter accepts any kind of child including Charts.

Slider features

• Numeric and date support - Select numeric and date value. For date, support is provided up to the 'Seconds' interval.

• Labels - Render labels for the date and numeric ranges with an option to customize formats based on the requirement.

• Ticks and dividers - Show ticks and dividers based on the interval. Also, enable minor ticks between the ticks to indicate the selected values. These options show the selected range in a more intuitive way for the end users.

• Tooltip - Render tooltip to show the selected value clearly. It is also possible to customize the format of the text shown in the tooltip.

• Thumb icon support - Accepts custom widgets like icon or text inside the thumb.

• Discrete selection - Provides an option for selecting only discrete numeric and date values.

• Highly customizable - In addition to the built-in rich set of features, fully customize the control easily using the wide range of provided options.

• Orientation - Supports both horizontal and vertical orientations.

• Inversed vertical slider - Provides an option to change the minimum and maximum positions of the vertical slider.

Range slider features

Range slider supports all the above-mentioned features of the slider in addition to:

• Orientation - Supports both horizontal and vertical orientations.

• Inversed vertical range slider - Provides an option to change the minimum and maximum positions of the vertical range slider.

• Drag mode - Various dragging options are available to control thumb dragging. The available options are onThumb, betweenThumbs, and both.

• Interval selection - Allows users to select a particular interval by tapping or clicking in it. Both thumbs will be moved to the current interval with animation.

Range selector features

Range selector supports all the above-mentioned features(except orientation and inversed slider) of the range slider in addition to:

• Child support - Add a child of any type inside the range selector. It is also possible to add Charts. With the built-in integration, range selector is smart enough to handle features like segment selection or zooming of a chart based on the selected range in the range selector. Similar to the range slider, it also supports both numeric and date values.

• Deferred update - Provides an option to defer range updates, allowing you to control when dependent components are updated while thumbs are being dragged continuously.

Installation

Install the latest version from pub.

Slider getting started

Import the following package.

import 'package:syncfusion_flutter_sliders/sliders.dart';

Add slider to the widget tree

Add the slider widget as a child of any widget. Here, the slider widget is added as a child of the center widget.

@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return MaterialApp(
        home: Scaffold(
            body: Center(
                child: SfSlider(),
              ),
          ),
      );
}

Add slider elements

Add the slider elements such as ticks, labels, and tooltip to show the current position of the slider thumb.

Horizontal slider

double _value = 40.0;

@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
  return Scaffold(
     appBar: AppBar(
       title: const Text('Syncfusion Flutter Slider'),
     ),
     body: SfSlider(
       min: 0.0,
       max: 100.0,
       value: _value,
       interval: 20,
       showTicks: true,
       showLabels: true,
       enableTooltip: true,
       minorTicksPerInterval: 1,
       onChanged: (dynamic value){
         setState(() {
           _value = value;
         });
       },
     ),
   );
}

The following screenshot illustrates the result of the above code sample.

Vertical slider

double _value = 40.0;

@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
  return Scaffold(
    appBar: AppBar(
      title: const Text('Syncfusion Flutter Vertical Slider'),
    ),
    body: SfSlider.vertical(
      min: 0.0,
      max: 100.0,
      value: _value,
      interval: 20,
      showTicks: true,
      showLabels: true,
      enableTooltip: true,
      minorTicksPerInterval: 1,
      onChanged: (dynamic value) {
        setState(() {
          _value = value;
        });
      },
    ),
  );
}

Range slider getting started

Import the following package.

import 'package:syncfusion_flutter_sliders/sliders.dart';

Add range slider to the widget tree

Add the range slider widget as a child of any widget. Here, the range slider widget is added as a child of the center widget.

        home: Scaffold(
            body: Center(
                child: SfRangeSlider(),
              ),
          ),
      );
}

Add range slider elements

Add the range slider elements such as ticks, labels, and tooltips to show the current position of the range slider thumb.

Horizontal range slider

SfRangeValues _values = SfRangeValues(40.0, 80.0);

@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
   return Scaffold(
     appBar: AppBar(
       title: const Text('Syncfusion Flutter Range Slider'),
     ),
     body: SfRangeSlider(
        min: 0.0,
        max: 100.0,
        values: _values,
        interval: 20,
        showTicks: true,
        showLabels: true,
        enableTooltip: true,
        minorTicksPerInterval: 1,
        onChanged: (SfRangeValues values){
          setState(() {
            _values = values;
          });
        },
      ),
