Flutter - Overlay card widget on a container
Yes, you can acheive it with a Stack
widget. You can stack a card over the background and provide a top or bottom padding.
A simple example would look like:
class StackDemo extends StatelessWidget {
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return new Stack(
children: <Widget>[
// The containers in the background
new Column(
children: <Widget>[
new Container(
height: MediaQuery.of(context).size.height * .65,
color: Colors.blue,
),
new Container(
height: MediaQuery.of(context).size.height * .35,
color: Colors.white,
)
],
),
// The card widget with top padding,
// incase if you wanted bottom padding to work,
// set the `alignment` of container to Alignment.bottomCenter
new Container(
alignment: Alignment.topCenter,
padding: new EdgeInsets.only(
top: MediaQuery.of(context).size.height * .58,
right: 20.0,
left: 20.0),
child: new Container(
height: 200.0,
width: MediaQuery.of(context).size.width,
child: new Card(
color: Colors.white,
elevation: 4.0,
),
),
)
],
);
}
}
The output of the above code would look something like:
Hope this helps!
Screenshot:
Instead of hardcoding Positioned
or Container
, you should use Align
.
Code:
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
final size = MediaQuery.of(context).size;
return Scaffold(
body: Stack(
children: [
Column(
children: [
Expanded(flex: 2, child: Container(color: Colors.indigo)),
Expanded(child: Container(color: Colors.white)),
],
),
Align(
alignment: Alignment(0, 0.5),
child: Container(
width: size.width * 0.9,
height: size.height * 0.4,
child: Card(
elevation: 12,
child: Center(child: Text('CARD', style: Theme.of(context).textTheme.headline2)),
),
),
),
],
),
);
}
