Decoration class

A description of a box decoration (a decoration applied to a Rect).

This class presents the abstract interface for all decorations. See BoxDecoration for a concrete example.

To actually paint a Decoration, use the createBoxPainter method to obtain a BoxPainter. Decoration objects can be shared between boxes; BoxPainter objects can cache resources to make painting on a particular surface faster.

Constructors

Decoration(): Abstract const constructor. This constructor enables subclasses to provide const constructors so that they can be used in const expressions.

Properties

isComplex → bool: Whether this decoration is complex enough to benefit from caching its painting.
read-only
padding → EdgeInsetsGeometry: Returns the insets to apply when using this decoration on a box that has contents, so that the contents do not overlap the edges of the decoration. For example, if the decoration draws a frame around its edge, the padding would return the distance by which to inset the children so as to not overlap the frame. [...]
read-only
hashCode → int: The hash code for this object. [...]
read-only, inherited
runtimeType → Type: A representation of the runtime type of the object.

Methods

createBoxPainter([VoidCallback onChanged ]) → BoxPainter: Returns a BoxPainter that will paint this decoration. [...]
debugAssertIsValid() → bool: In checked mode, throws an exception if the object is not in a valid configuration. Otherwise, returns true. [...]
hitTest(Size size, Offset position, { TextDirection textDirection }) → bool: Tests whether the given point, on a rectangle of a given size, would be considered to hit the decoration or not. For example, if the decoration only draws a circle, this function might return true if the point was inside the circle and false otherwise. [...]
lerpFrom(Decoration a, double t) → Decoration: Linearly interpolates from another Decoration (which may be of a different class) to this. [...]
@protected
lerpTo(Decoration b, double t) → Decoration: Linearly interpolates from this to another Decoration (which may be of a different class). [...]
@protected
toStringShort() → String: A brief description of this object, usually just the runtimeType and the hashCode. [...]
override
debugFillProperties(DiagnosticPropertiesBuilder properties) → void: Add additional properties associated with the node. [...]
@mustCallSuper, @protected, inherited
noSuchMethod(Invocation invocation) → dynamic: Invoked when a non-existent method or property is accessed. [...]
inherited
toDiagnosticsNode({String name, DiagnosticsTreeStyle style }) → DiagnosticsNode: Returns a debug representation of the object that is used by debugging tools and by toStringDeep. [...]
inherited
toString({DiagnosticLevel minLevel: DiagnosticLevel.debug }) → String: Returns a string representation of this object.

Operators

operator ==(dynamic other) → bool: The equality operator. [...]
