I have a problem with Flutter/Android studio that started today. Mainaxisalignment doesn't show the correct format
"titledistance" in stead of "title distance"

I think I didn't change any code but probably pub get/upgrade,... I also have problems with my provider (I’m talking about provider for Firebase auth).

This is a total new project with only this Dart file, the same problem here. Same problem in VS-Code

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

void main() {
  runApp(const MyApp());
}

class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
  const MyApp({Key? key}) : super(key: key);
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return MaterialApp(
      title: 'Flutter Demo',
      theme: ThemeData(
        primarySwatch: Colors.blue,
      ),
      home: const MyHomePage(title: 'Flutter Demo Home Page'),
    );
  }
}

class MyHomePage extends StatefulWidget {
  const MyHomePage({Key? key, required this.title}) : super(key: key);

  final String title;


  @override
  State<MyHomePage> createState() => _MyHomePageState();
}

class _MyHomePageState extends State<MyHomePage> {
  int _counter = 0;

  void _incrementCounter() {
    setState(() {
      _counter  ;
    });
  }

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    String title = "title";
    String value1 = "distance";
    return Scaffold(
      appBar: AppBar(
        centerTitle: true,
        title: FittedBox(
          fit: BoxFit.fitWidth,
          child: Row(

              Text(value1),

          ),
        ),

                  TextButton(

1- The problem is the

Code to show the BoxDecoration:

centerTitle: true,
title: Container(
  decoration: BoxDecoration(border: Border.all(color: Colors.black)),
  child: FittedBox(
    fit: BoxFit.fitWidth,
    child: Row(
      mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.spaceBetween,
      children: [
        Container(
          decoration:
              BoxDecoration(border: Border.all(color: Colors.white)),
          child: Text(
            title,
            style: const TextStyle(fontSize: 40),
          ),
        ),
        Container(
            decoration:
                BoxDecoration(border: Border.all(color: Colors.white)),
            child: Text(value1)),
      ],
    ),
  ),
),

Using FittedBox(fit: BoxFit.fitWidth, you are forcing the box to fit to the width of the child - the black border box in the above picture.

2- Then using mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.spaceBetween, is meaningless since there is no space at all to put between the items. unless you remove the FittedBox e.g.:
Code:

centerTitle: true,
title: Container(
  decoration: BoxDecoration(border: Border.all(color: Colors.black)),
  child: Row(
    mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.spaceBetween,
    children: [
      Container(
        decoration:
            BoxDecoration(border: Border.all(color: Colors.white)),
        child: Text(
          title,
          style: const TextStyle(fontSize: 40),
        ),
      ),
      Container(
          decoration:
              BoxDecoration(border: Border.all(color: Colors.white)),
          child: Text(value1)),
    ],
  ),
),

Now you'll see the space between:
Code:

centerTitle: true,
title: Container(
  decoration: BoxDecoration(border: Border.all(color: Colors.black)),
  child: Row(
    mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.spaceBetween,
    children: [
      Container(
        decoration:
            BoxDecoration(border: Border.all(color: Colors.white)),
        child: Text(
          title,
          style: const TextStyle(fontSize: 40),
        ),
      ),
      Container(
          decoration:
              BoxDecoration(border: Border.all(color: Colors.white)),
          child: Text('spaceBetween')),
      Container(
          decoration:
              BoxDecoration(border: Border.all(color: Colors.white)),
          child: Text(value1)),
    ],
  ),
),

Or using just a single space Text(' '):

Now add the FittedBox:

centerTitle: true,
title: Container(
  decoration: BoxDecoration(border: Border.all(color: Colors.black)),
  child: FittedBox(
    fit: BoxFit.fitWidth,
    child: Row(
      mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.spaceBetween,
      children: [
        Container(
          decoration:
              BoxDecoration(border: Border.all(color: Colors.white)),
          child: Text(
            title,
            style: const TextStyle(fontSize: 40),
          ),
        ),
        Container(
            decoration:
                BoxDecoration(border: Border.all(color: Colors.black)),
            child: Text(' ')),
        Container(
            decoration:
                BoxDecoration(border: Border.all(color: Colors.white)),
            child: Text(
              value1,
              style: const TextStyle(fontSize: 40),
            )),
      ],
    ),
  ),
),

So you have some options:

1- Use Padding for one or both items:

children: [
  Padding(
    padding: const EdgeInsets.all(8.0),
    child: Text(title),
  ),
  Text(value1),
],

2- You may use dummy Container, SizedBox, or Text(' '), :

children: [
  Text(title),
  SizedBox(width: 8), // Container(width: 8), // Text(' '),
  Text(value1),
],

or simply add one space e.g.:

 Text(title   ' '),

or

 Text(' '   value1),

and see (note: Row instead of Column):

CodePudding user response：

no need to add extra code for this using one line of code we can do this.

 title: FittedBox(
          fit: BoxFit.fitWidth,
          child: Row(
            mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.spaceBetween,
            children: [
              Text(title),
              Text(value1),
            ],
          ),
        ),

replace with

   title: Text("$title $value1"),

or you can use SizedBox()

          child: Row(
            mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.spaceBetween,
            children: [
              Text(title),
              SizedBox(width:5),
              Text(value1),
            ],
          ),
        ),
