Flutter: Change text when FlexibleSpaceBar is collapsed - dart

Question

I have looked through the Flutter documentation to try and find an event, callback or even a state that I could hook into when the FlexibleSpaceBar is collapsed or expanded.
return new FlexibleSpaceBar(
title: new Column(
crossAxisAlignment: CrossAxisAlignment.end,
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.end,
children: <Widget>[
new Text(_name, style: textTheme.headline),
new Text(_caption, style: textTheme.caption)
]),
centerTitle: false,
background: getImage());`
When the FlexibleSpaceBar is snapped in (collapsed), I want to hide the _caption text and only display the _name text. When it is expanded fully, I obviously want to display both _name & _caption.
How do I go about doing that?
Im new to flutter, so I am somewhat lost on this.

Answer 1

It's not hard to create your own FlexibleSpaceBar.
import 'dart:math' as math;
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:flutter/rendering.dart';
void main() {
runApp(MyApp());
}
class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return MaterialApp(
title: 'Flutter Demo',
theme: ThemeData(
primarySwatch: Colors.blue,
),
home: Scaffold(
body: SafeArea(
child: MyHomePage(),
),
),
);
}
}
class MyHomePage extends StatefulWidget {
#override
_MyHomePageState createState() => _MyHomePageState();
}
class _MyHomePageState extends State<MyHomePage> {
ScrollController controller = ScrollController();
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return CustomScrollView(
physics: ClampingScrollPhysics(),
controller: controller,
slivers: [
SliverAppBar(
expandedHeight: 220.0,
floating: true,
pinned: true,
elevation: 50,
backgroundColor: Colors.pink,
leading: IconButton(
icon: Icon(Icons.menu),
onPressed: () {},
),
flexibleSpace: _MyAppSpace(),
),
SliverList(
delegate: SliverChildListDelegate(
List.generate(
200,
(index) => Card(
child: Padding(
padding: EdgeInsets.all(10),
child: Text('text $index'),
),
),
),
),
)
],
);
}
}
class _MyAppSpace extends StatelessWidget {
const _MyAppSpace({Key key}) : super(key: key);
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return LayoutBuilder(
builder: (context, c) {
final settings = context
.dependOnInheritedWidgetOfExactType<FlexibleSpaceBarSettings>();
final deltaExtent = settings.maxExtent - settings.minExtent;
final t =
(1.0 - (settings.currentExtent - settings.minExtent) / deltaExtent)
.clamp(0.0, 1.0) as double;
final fadeStart = math.max(0.0, 1.0 - kToolbarHeight / deltaExtent);
const fadeEnd = 1.0;
final opacity = 1.0 - Interval(fadeStart, fadeEnd).transform(t);
return Stack(
children: [
Center(
child: Opacity(
opacity: 1 - opacity,
child: getTitle(
'Collapsed Title',
)),
),
Opacity(
opacity: opacity,
child: Stack(
alignment: Alignment.bottomCenter,
children: [
getImage(),
getTitle(
'Expended Title',
)
],
),
),
],
);
},
);
}
Widget getImage() {
return Container(
width: double.infinity,
child: Image.network(
'https://source.unsplash.com/daily?code',
fit: BoxFit.cover,
),
);
}
Widget getTitle(String text) {
return Padding(
padding: const EdgeInsets.all(8.0),
child: Text(
text,
textAlign: TextAlign.center,
style: TextStyle(
color: Colors.white,
fontSize: 26.0,
fontWeight: FontWeight.bold,
),
),
);
}
}

You can use AnimatedOpacity class.
flexibleSpace: LayoutBuilder(
builder: (BuildContext context, BoxConstraints constraints) {
var top = constraints.biggest.height;
return FlexibleSpaceBar(
title: AnimatedOpacity(
duration: Duration(milliseconds: 300),
//opacity: top > 71 && top < 91 ? 1.0 : 0.0,
child: Text(
top > 71 && top < 91 ? "Collapse" : "Expanded",
style: TextStyle(fontSize: 16, fontWeight: FontWeight.bold),
)),
background: Image.network(
"https://images.ctfassets.net/pjshm78m9jt4/383122_header/d79a41045d07d114941f7641c83eea6d/importedImage383122_header",
fit: BoxFit.cover,
));
}),

It can be done like this :
inside your initState method add the scroll listener like that :
ScrollController _controller;
bool silverCollapsed = false;
String myTitle = "default title";
#override
void initState() {
super.initState();
_controller = ScrollController();
_controller.addListener(() {
if (_controller.offset > 220 && !_controller.position.outOfRange) {
if(!silverCollapsed){
// do what ever you want when silver is collapsing !
myTitle = "silver collapsed !";
silverCollapsed = true;
setState(() {});
}
}
if (_controller.offset <= 220 && !_controller.position.outOfRange) {
if(silverCollapsed){
// do what ever you want when silver is expanding !
myTitle = "silver expanded !";
silverCollapsed = false;
setState(() {});
}
}
});
}
then wrap your silverAppBar inside CustomScrollView and add the controller to this CustomScrollView like that :
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Scaffold(
backgroundColor: Colors.white,
body: CustomScrollView(
controller: _controller,
slivers: <Widget>[
SliverAppBar(
expandedHeight: 300,
title: myTitle,
flexibleSpace: FlexibleSpaceBar(),
),
SliverList(
delegate: SliverChildListDelegate(<Widget>[
// your widgets inside here !
]),
),
],
),
);
}
finally change the condition value _controller.offset > 220 to fit your need !

Answer 4

FlexibleSpaceBar per se won't be enough. You need to wrap it into CustomScrollView and SliverAppBar. These widgets must be controller by a ScrollController, which will fire an event whenever scroll offset changes. Based on it, you can find out if app bar is collapsed or expanded, and change the content accordingly. Here you will find a working example.

Answer 5

Give an height in padding in FlexibleSpaceBar
flexibleSpace: FlexibleSpaceBar(
titlePadding: EdgeInsets.only(
top: 100, // give the value
title: Text(
"Test"
),

Answer 6

Follow up to Vishnu Suresh answer:
flexibleSpace: FlexibleSpaceBar(
titlePadding: EdgeInsets.only(
top: kToolbarHeight, // give the value
title: Text(
"Test"
),
This will use the appbar height for the padding.
