In Flutter, a “constrained box” is a widget used to apply specific constraints to its child widget. These constraints dictate how the child widget should be sized within the layout. Let’s delve into this concept and explore constraints in more detail:
ConstrainedBox Widget:
The ConstrainedBox
widget is used to constrain the size of its child widget. It takes in a constraints
parameter, which defines the minimum and maximum size limits for its child.
ConstrainedBox(
constraints: BoxConstraints(
minWidth: 100.0,
minHeight: 100.0,
maxWidth: 200.0,
maxHeight: 200.0,
),
child: Container(
color: Colors.blue,
),
)
n this example, the child Container
widget is constrained to have a minimum width and height of 100 pixels and a maximum width and height of 200 pixels.
