BorderSide class

A side of a border of a box.

A Border consists of four BorderSide objects: Border.top, Border.left, Border.right, and Border.bottom.

Setting BorderSide.width to 0.0 will result in hairline rendering; see BorderSide.width for a more involved explanation.

This sample shows how BorderSide objects can be used in a Container, via a BoxDecoration and a Border, to decorate some Text. In this example, the text has a thick bar above it that is light blue, and a thick bar below it that is a darker shade of blue.

  child: const Text('Flutter in the sky', textAlign: TextAlign.center),

Methods

copyWith({Color? color, double? width, BorderStyle? style, double? strokeAlign}) BorderSide
Creates a copy of this border but with the given fields replaced with the new values.
debugFillProperties(DiagnosticPropertiesBuilder properties) → void
Add additional properties associated with the node.
override
noSuchMethod(Invocation invocation) → dynamic
Invoked when a nonexistent method or property is accessed.
inherited
scale(double t) BorderSide
Creates a copy of this border side description but with the width scaled by the factor t.
toDiagnosticsNode({String? name, DiagnosticsTreeStyle? style}) DiagnosticsNode
Returns a debug representation of the object that is used by debugging tools and by DiagnosticsNode.toStringDeep.
inherited
toPaint() Paint
Create a Paint object that, if used to stroke a line, will draw the line in this border's style.
toString({DiagnosticLevel minLevel = DiagnosticLevel.info}) String
A string representation of this object.
inherited
toStringShort() String
A brief description of this object, usually just the runtimeType and the hashCode.
override

Operators

operator ==(Object other) bool
The equality operator.

Static Methods

canMerge(BorderSide a, BorderSide b) bool
Whether the two given BorderSides can be merged using BorderSide.merge.
lerp(BorderSide a, BorderSide b, double t) BorderSide
Linearly interpolate between two border sides.
merge(BorderSide a, BorderSide b) BorderSide
Creates a BorderSide that represents the addition of the two given BorderSides.

Constants

none → const BorderSide
A hairline black border that is not rendered.
strokeAlignCenter → const double
The border is drawn on the center of the border path, with half of the BorderSide.width on the inside, and the other half on the outside of the path.
strokeAlignInside → const double
The border is drawn fully inside of the border path.
strokeAlignOutside → const double
The border is drawn on the outside of the border path.
