InputDecorator class

Defines the appearance of a Material Design text field.

InputDecorator displays the visual elements of a Material Design text field around its input child. The visual elements themselves are defined by an InputDecoration object and their layout and appearance depend on the baseStyle, textAlign, isFocused, and isEmpty parameters.

TextField uses this widget to decorate its EditableText child.

InputDecorator can be used to create widgets that look and behave like a TextField but support other kinds of input.

Requires one of its ancestors to be a Material widget. The child widget, as well as the decorative widgets specified in decoration, must have non-negative baselines.
