geometry property

SliverGeometry? get geometry

The amount of space this sliver occupies.

This value is stale whenever this object is marked as needing layout. During performLayout, do not read the geometry of a child unless you pass true for parentUsesSize when calling the child's layout function.

The geometry of a sliver should be set only during the sliver's performLayout or performResize functions. If you wish to change the geometry of a sliver outside of those functions, call markNeedsLayout instead to schedule a layout of the sliver.

Implementation

SliverGeometry? get geometry => _geometry;
set geometry (SliverGeometry? value)
