I am trying to use DropdownButtonFormField in tab controller with tab viewer on flutter web. It is showing but not showing dropdown options on clicking on it showing an error please find below my code and error.
Below is my example code:
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
class UserManager extends StatefulWidget {
const UserManager({Key? key}) : super(key: key);
@override
_UserManagerState createState() => _UserManagerState();
}
class _UserManagerState extends State<UserManager> {
final _formkey = GlobalKey<FormState>();
var addName = "";
var addEmail = "";
var addPassword = "";
var addRole = "";
final nameController = TextEditingController();
final emailController = TextEditingController();
final passwordController = TextEditingController();
final roleController = TextEditingController();
@override

Below is the error:
Exception has occurred. "Error: Cannot hit test a render box that has never been laid out. The hitTest() method was called on this RenderBox: RenderSemanticsAnnotations#119e3 NEEDS-LAYOUT NEEDS-PAINT: needs compositing creator: Semantics ← _EffectiveTickerMode ← TickerMode ← _OverlayEntryWidget-[LabeledGlobalKey<_OverlayEntryWidgetState>#c466c] ← _Theatre ← Overlay-[LabeledGlobalKey#26f68] ← UnmanagedRestorationScope ← _FocusMarker ← Semantics ← FocusScope ← AbsorbPointer ← Listener ← ⋯ parentData: not positioned; offset=Offset(0.0, 0.0) constraints: MISSING size: MISSING Unfortunately, this object's geometry is not known at this time, probably because it has never been laid out. This means it cannot be accurately hit-tested. If you are trying to perform a hit test during the layout phase itself, make sure you only hit test nodes that have completed layout (e.g. the node's children, after their layout() method has been called).
Debug console:
════════ Exception caught by rendering library ═════════════════════════════════
The following assertion was thrown during performLayout():
LayoutBuilder does not support returning intrinsic dimensions.
Calculating the intrinsic dimensions would require running the layout callback speculatively, which might mutate the live render object tree.
The relevant error-causing widget was
