FocusableActionDetector class

A widget that combines the functionality of Actions, Shortcuts, MouseRegion and a Focus widget to create a detector that defines actions and key bindings, and provides callbacks for handling focus and hover highlights.

This widget can be used to give a control the required detection modes for focus and hover handling. It is most often used when authoring a new control widget, and the new control should be enabled for keyboard traversal and activation.

This example shows how keyboard interaction can be added to a custom control that changes color when hovered and focused, and can toggle a light when activated, either by touch or by hitting the X key on the keyboard when the "And Me" button has the keyboard focus (be sure to use TAB to move the focus to the "And Me" button before trying it out).

This example defines its own key binding for the X key, but in this case, there is also a default key binding for ActivateAction in the default key bindings created by WidgetsApp (the parent for MaterialApp, and CupertinoApp), so the ENTER key will also activate the buttons.

To create a local project with this code sample, run:
flutter create --sample=widgets.FocusableActionDetector.1 mysample

This widget doesn't have any visual representation, it is just a detector that provides focus and hover capabilities.

It hosts its own FocusNode or uses focusNode, if given.

The child widget for this FocusableActionDetector widget.
final
descendantsAreFocusable → bool
If false, will make this widget's descendants unfocusable.
