LayoutBuilder class

Builds a widget tree that can depend on the parent widget's size.

Similar to the Builder widget except that the framework calls the builder function at layout time and provides the parent widget's constraints. This is useful when the parent constrains the child's size and doesn't depend on the child's intrinsic size. The LayoutBuilder's final size will match its child's size.

If the child should be smaller than the parent, consider wrapping the child in an Align widget. If the child might want to be bigger, consider wrapping it in a SingleChildScrollView.

Methods

createElement() → _LayoutBuilderElement
RenderObjectWidgets always inflate to a RenderObjectElement subclass.

Creates an instance of the RenderObject class that this RenderObjectWidget represents, using the configuration described by this RenderObjectWidget. [...]
override
debugDescribeChildren() → List<DiagnosticsNode>
Returns a list of DiagnosticsNode objects describing this node's children. [...]
