For some reason the border does not accomodate the textfield completely. Changing the error string to an empty string doesn't help. I can do without the error message but the border should perfectly cover the textfield.

CodePudding user response：
errorText: !_isValid ? '' : null,
//THIS WAS WHAT WAS NEEDED:
errorStyle:
const TextStyle(height: 0, color: Colors.transparent),
After this, the error text does not take any space and thus the border fits the textfield correctly.
