prototype_constrained_box

Features

• Just like ConstrainedBox, you can constrain the child of this widget;
• However, instead of passing directly a BoxConstraints, you pass another prototype widget that will be used as constraint;
• You may constrain the child loosely or tightly, in one or both of the axes.

Usage

Use the PrototypeConstrainedBox widget by providing a prototype and a child.

The following example will render a ColoredBox that will fill the space that the given prototype text would occupy:

const PrototypeConstrainedBox.tight(
  prototype: Text('Lorem ipsum dolor'),
  child: ColoredBox(
    color: Color(0xFFFF0000),
  ),
);

Aside from .tight, PrototypeConstrainedBox also provides .loose, .tightFor or you can completely customize the constraints by using the default unnamed constructor.
