I am trying to pass a class inside the Stack to the ListView, but it does not display on the screen as it should and gives an error

════════ Exception caught by widgets library ═══════════════════════════════════ The following assertion was thrown while applying parent data.: Incorrect use of ParentDataWidget.

The ParentDataWidget Positioned(left: 154.0, top: 21.0, width: 73.0, height: 366.0) wants to apply ParentData of type StackParentData to a RenderObject, which has been set up to accept ParentData of incompatible type ParentData.

Usually, this means that the Positioned widget has the wrong ancestor RenderObjectWidget. Typically, Positioned widgets are placed directly inside Stack widgets. The offending Positioned is currently placed inside a RepaintBoundary widget.

The ownership chain for the RenderObject that received the incompatible parent data was: SizedBox ← Positioned ← MyRandomizedButton-[<'0'>] ← RepaintBoundary ← IndexedSemantics ← NotificationListener ← KeepAlive ← AutomaticKeepAlive ← KeyedSubtree-[Key <[<'0'>]>] ← SliverList ← ⋯ When the exception was thrown, this was the stack

in the console. When I just pass the class inside the Stack by manually changing the Key, everything works as it should. How can I fix this?

CodePudding user response:

As mentioned in the docs

A Positioned widget must be a descendant of a Stack.

Please Wrap your Positioned widget inside a stack

Stack(
children: [
    Positioned(
    /// remaining code
  ]
)

CodePudding user response:

Please update the MyRandomizedButton code and the complete error you are getting in your console.

You are using a positioned widget as the parent of the sized box which is creating an issue. The positioned widget can only be used inside a stack. So you can try to update your listview.builder inside a positioned widget instead of a sized box. Here is an example code. Let me know if this works for you.

class MainScreenWidget extends StatefulWidget {
  const MainScreenWidget({Key? key}) : super(key: key);

  @override
  State<MainScreenWidget> createState() => _MainScreenWidgetState();
}

class _MainScreenWidgetState extends State<MainScreenWidget> {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    final maxWidth = MediaQuery.of(context).size.width;
    final maxHeight = MediaQuery.of(context).size.height;
    final random = Random();

    int minT = 3;
    int maxT = maxHeight.toInt() - 80;
    int randomTop = minT   random.nextInt(maxT - minT);

    int minL = 3;
    int maxL = maxWidth.toInt() - 80;
    int randomLeft = minL   random.nextInt(maxL - minL);

    int minH = 70;
    int maxH = maxHeight.toInt() - randomTop;
    int randomHeight = minH   random.nextInt(maxH - minH);

    int minW = 70;
    int maxW = maxWidth.toInt() - randomLeft;
    int randomWidth = minW   random.nextInt(maxW - minW);

    int minR = 1;
    int maxR = 75;
    int randomRadius = minR   random.nextInt(maxR - minR);
    SystemChrome.setEnabledSystemUIOverlays([]);
    return Scaffold(
      body: Stack(
        children: [
          Positioned(
            height: randomHeight.toDouble(),
            width: randomWidth.toDouble(),
            top: randomTop.toDouble(),
            left: randomLeft.toDouble(),
            child: ListView.builder(
                itemCount: 5,
                itemBuilder: (context, index) {
                  return MyRandomizedButton(key: ValueKey(index.toString()));
