SimpleDialog class
A simple material design dialog.
A simple dialog offers the user a choice between several options. A simple dialog has an optional title that is displayed above the choices.
Choices are normally represented using SimpleDialogOption widgets. If other widgets are used, see contentPadding for notes regarding the conventions for obtaining the spacing expected by Material Design.
For dialogs that inform the user about a situation, consider using an AlertDialog.
Typically passed as the child widget to showDialog, which displays the dialog.
The return value in this example is used as the index for a switch statement. One advantage of using an enum as the return value and then using that to drive a switch statement is that the analyzer will flag any switch statement that doesn't mention every value in the enum.
Future<void> _askedToLead() async {
switch (await showDialog<Department>(
context: context,
builder: (BuildContext context) {
return SimpleDialog(
title: const Text('Select assignment'),
children: <Widget>[
SimpleDialogOption(
onPressed: () { Navigator.pop(context, Department.treasury); },
child: const Text('Treasury department'),
),
SimpleDialogOption(
onPressed: () { Navigator.pop(context, Department.state); },
child: const Text('State department'),
),
],
);
}
)) {
case Department.treasury:
// Let's go.
// ...
break;
case Department.state:
// ...
break;
}
}
