Two-Dimensional Scrollable Widgets in Flutter
Published on by Flutter News Hub
Flutter's two_dimensional_scrollables package empowers developers to create widgets that effortlessly scroll in both vertical and horizontal axes. This package enhances the framework's existing two-dimensional scrolling foundation, enabling a wide range of customizable scrolling experiences.
Key Features
- TableView: A scrollable widget that renders its children lazily in a two-dimensional viewport, allowing for efficient and dynamic content loading.
- Diagonal Scrolling: Supports smooth diagonal scrolling or axis locking for precise control over movement.
- Decorations: Customize individual rows and columns with backgrounds, borders, and other visual enhancements.
- Gesture Handling: Handle gestures and custom pointers for rows and columns, enabling interactive and responsive interfaces.
- Pinning: Pin rows and columns to remain visible even when the viewport is scrolled.
Getting Started
1. Add package dependency:
flutter pub add two_dimensional_scrollables
2. Import package:
import 'package:two_dimensional_scrollables/two_dimensional_scrollables.dart';
Usage
TableView
Create a TableView by constructing it with a builder that generates its children on demand:
TableView(
builder: (context, rowIndex, columnIndex) {
// Build and return a cell widget
},
columnCount: 400,
rowCount: 400,
)
Example: Customizing Table Cells
The following code demonstrates how to customize individual table cells using TableSpanDecoration:
TableView(
builder: (context, rowIndex, columnIndex) {
return TableCell(
decoration: TableSpanDecoration(
backgroundColor: Colors.blue,
border: Border.all(color: Colors.black),
),
);
},
columnCount: 400,
rowCount: 400,
)
