Blurred Decoration Image in Flutter - dart

Question

I have the background of my app set like so:
class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return new MaterialApp(
home: new Container(
decoration: new BoxDecoration(
image: new DecorationImage(
image: new ExactAssetImage('assets/lol/aatrox.jpg'),
fit: BoxFit.cover,
),
),
child: new BackdropFilter(filter: new ImageFilter.blur(sigmaX: 600.0, sigmaY: 1000.0)),
width: 400.0,
),
);
}
}
I'm wanting to blur the DecorationImage, so I added a BackdropFilter to the Container, but I don't see any change. What am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

You could do something like this, by blurring the container child instead.
class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return new MaterialApp(
home: new Container(
decoration: new BoxDecoration(
image: new DecorationImage(
image: new ExactAssetImage('assets/dog.png'),
fit: BoxFit.cover,
),
),
child: new BackdropFilter(
filter: new ImageFilter.blur(sigmaX: 10.0, sigmaY: 10.0),
child: new Container(
decoration: new BoxDecoration(color: Colors.white.withOpacity(0.0)),
),
),
),
);
}
}

Screenshot:
Using Stack:
SizedBox(
height: 200,
child: Stack(
fit: StackFit.expand,
children: [
Image.asset('chocolate_image', fit: BoxFit.cover),
ClipRRect( // Clip it cleanly.
child: BackdropFilter(
filter: ImageFilter.blur(sigmaX: 10, sigmaY: 10),
child: Container(
color: Colors.grey.withOpacity(0.1),
alignment: Alignment.center,
child: Text('CHOCOLATE'),
),
),
),
],
),
)
Without using Stack:
Container(
height: 200,
width: double.maxFinite,
decoration: BoxDecoration(
image: DecorationImage(
image: ExactAssetImage("your_chocolage_image"),
fit: BoxFit.cover,
),
),
child: ClipRRect( // make sure we apply clip it properly
child: BackdropFilter(
filter: ImageFilter.blur(sigmaX: 10, sigmaY: 10),
child: Container(
alignment: Alignment.center,
color: Colors.grey.withOpacity(0.1),
child: Text(
"CHOCOLATE",
style: TextStyle(fontSize: 28, fontWeight: FontWeight.bold),
),
),
),
),
)

Answer 3

As I mentioned here, you should wrap your ImageFiltered widget in a ClipRRect to prevent it from flowing out the widget boundaries. Here's the code:
ClipRRect(
child: ImageFiltered(
imageFilter: ImageFilter.blur(sigmaX: 3, sigmaY: 3),
child: Image.asset('assets/flutter_image.png'),
),
),
This is the output:

Answer 4

ImageFiltered is the perfect widget for that . It creates a widget that applies an ImageFilter to its child.
ImageFilter is an easy way to blur or transform pixels in your app . You can import it from dart:ui
Code :
ImageFiltered(
imageFilter: ImageFilter.blur(sigmaY:5,sigmaX:5), //SigmaX and Y are just for X and Y directions
child: Image.asset('assets/image.png') //here you can use any widget you'd like to blur .
)
ImageFilter.blur() make anything blurry and
ImageFilter.matrix() lets you use any matrix for
transformation ,scaling , translating , skewing and rotating
Output :
A similar widget to ImageFiltered is BackdropFilter .
BackdropFilter lets you apply filter to everything that's painted
beneath a widget , instead of applying the filter to the widget
itself.
It's also less performant . If you can do your effect with
ImageFiltered , Use it instead of BackdropFilter.
You can learn more about ImageFiltered by watching this official video or by visiting flutter.dev

Answer 5

It's better if you put in ClipRRect, like this :
Container(
child: ClipRRect(
child: Stack(
children: <Widget>[
FadeInImage.assetNetwork(
placeholder: placeholder,
image: thumbnail,
fit: BoxFit.cover,
),
BackdropFilter(
child: Container(
color: Colors.black12,
),
filter: ImageFilter.blur(sigmaY: 10, sigmaX: 10),
)
],
),
),
width: double.infinity,
),
This case apply for Image (Thumbnail) list items correctly.

All the above answers are correct, I'll reply to #user123456 here since I can't comment yet.

Just wrap the whole Container with a GestureDetector
GestureDetector(
onTap: () {...},
child: Container(
...
decoration: BoxDecoration(...),
),
);

Answer 7

You can use Image widget. It's very simple.
Image(
image: AssetImage("assets/images/news-media.png"),
color: Colors.black,
colorBlendMode: BlendMode.softLight,
fit: BoxFit.fill,
),
