StarBorder class

A border that fits a star or polygon-shaped border within the rectangle of the widget it is applied to.

Typically used with a ShapeDecoration to draw a polygonal or star shaped border.

This example serves both as a usage example, as well as an explorer for determining the parameters to use with a StarBorder. The resulting code can be copied and pasted into your app. A Container is just one widget which takes a ShapeBorder. Dialogs, OutlinedButtons, ElevatedButtons, etc. all can be shaped with a ShapeBorder.

Constructors

StarBorder.new({BorderSide side = BorderSide.none, double points = 5, double innerRadiusRatio = 0.4, double pointRounding = 0, double valleyRounding = 0, double rotation = 0, double squash = 0})
Create a const star-shaped border with the given number points on the star.

StarBorder.polygon({BorderSide side = BorderSide.none, double sides = 5, double pointRounding = 0, double rotation = 0, double squash = 0})

Methods

add(ShapeBorder other, {bool reversed = false}) → ShapeBorder?
Attempts to create a new object that represents the amalgamation of this border and the other border.
inherited
copyWith({BorderSide? side, double? points, double? innerRadiusRatio, double? pointRounding, double? valleyRounding, double? rotation, double? squash}) → StarBorder
Returns a copy of this OutlinedBorder that draws its outline with the specified side, if side is non-null.
override
getInnerPath(Rect rect, {TextDirection? textDirection}) → Path
Create a Path that describes the inner edge of the border.
override
getOuterPath(Rect rect, {TextDirection? textDirection}) → Path
Create a Path that describes the outer edge of the border.
override
lerpFrom(ShapeBorder? a, double t) → ShapeBorder?
Linearly interpolates from another ShapeBorder (possibly of another class) to this.
override
lerpTo(ShapeBorder? b, double t) → ShapeBorder?
Linearly interpolates from this to another ShapeBorder (possibly of another class).
override
noSuchMethod(Invocation invocation) → dynamic
Invoked when a nonexistent method or property is accessed.
inherited
paint(Canvas canvas, Rect rect, {TextDirection? textDirection}) → void
Paints the border within the given Rect on the given Canvas.
override
paintInterior(Canvas canvas, Rect rect, Paint paint, {TextDirection? textDirection}) → void
Paint a canvas with the appropriate shape.
inherited
scale(double t) → ShapeBorder
Creates a copy of this border, scaled by the factor t.
override
toString() → String
A string representation of this object.
override

Operators

operator +(ShapeBorder other) → ShapeBorder
Creates a new border consisting of the two borders on either side of the operator.
inherited
operator ==(Object other) → bool
The equality operator.
