ScrollView class

A widget that scrolls.

Scrollable widgets consist of three pieces:

  1. A Scrollable widget, which listens for various user gestures and implements the interaction design for scrolling.
  2. A viewport widget, such as Viewport or ShrinkWrappingViewport, which implements the visual design for scrolling by displaying only a portion of the widgets inside the scroll view.
  3. One or more slivers, which are widgets that can be composed to created various scrolling effects, such as lists, grids, and expanding headers.

ScrollView helps orchestrate these pieces by creating the Scrollable and the viewport and deferring to its subclass to create the slivers.

To control the initial scroll offset of the scroll view, provide a controller with its ScrollController.initialScrollOffset property set.
