GlowingOverscrollIndicator class

A visual indication that a scroll view has overscrolled.

A GlowingOverscrollIndicator listens for ScrollNotifications in order to control the overscroll indication. These notifications are typically generated by a ScrollView, such as a ListView or a GridView.

GlowingOverscrollIndicator generates OverscrollIndicatorNotification before showing an overscroll indication. To prevent the indicator from showing the indication, call OverscrollIndicatorNotification.disallowIndicator on the notification.

Created automatically by ScrollBehavior.buildOverscrollIndicator on platforms (e.g., Android) that commonly use this type of overscroll indication.

In a MaterialApp, the edge glow color is the overall theme's ColorScheme.secondary color.

Customizing the Glow Position for Advanced Scroll Views

When building a CustomScrollView with a GlowingOverscrollIndicator, the indicator will apply to the entire scrollable area, regardless of what slivers the CustomScrollView contains.

For example, if your CustomScrollView contains a SliverAppBar in the first position, the GlowingOverscrollIndicator will overlay the SliverAppBar. To manipulate the position of the GlowingOverscrollIndicator in this case, you can either make use of a NotificationListener and provide a OverscrollIndicatorNotification.paintOffset to the notification, or use a NestedScrollView.

This example demonstrates how to use a NotificationListener to manipulate the placement of a GlowingOverscrollIndicator when building a CustomScrollView. Drag the scrollable to see the bounds of the overscroll indicator.
