I am trying to draw a widget whenever a user presses the screen. Currently I am doing this by storing a list of widgets and when ontapup is fired on the gesture i am adding to a list of widgets.
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
Widget draw = new Text("A");
List<Widget> children = new List<Widget>();
return new Scaffold(
appBar: new AppBar(
title: const Text('Heading'),
leading: new Icon(Icons.question_answer),
),
body: new GestureDetector(
onTapUp: (details) {
setState(() {
children.add(new Positioned(
left: details.globalPosition.dx,
top: details.globalPosition.dy,
child: draw,
));
});
},
child: new Stack(children: children)
...
So my code is working I am drawing the widget when I click but my problem is that when adding the new Positioned() to stack the position is based on the screen which does not include the appbar offset. Is there a way to get the stacks initial x/y position? Or is there a way to get the appbars height? How do I get a widgets position or height/width?
