ScrollPhysics class

Determines the physics of a Scrollable widget.

For example, determines how the Scrollable will behave when the user reaches the maximum scroll extent or when the user stops scrolling.

When starting a physics Simulation, the current scroll position and velocity are used as the initial conditions for the particle in the simulation. The movement of the particle in the simulation is then used to determine the scroll position for the widget.

Instead of creating your own subclasses, parent can be used to combine ScrollPhysics objects of different types to get the desired scroll physics. For example:

const BouncingScrollPhysics(parent: AlwaysScrollableScrollPhysics())

You can also use applyTo, which is useful when you already have an instance of ScrollPhysics:

ScrollPhysics physics = const BouncingScrollPhysics();
// ...
final ScrollPhysics mergedPhysics = physics.applyTo(const AlwaysScrollableScrollPhysics());

When implementing a subclass, you must override applyTo so that it returns an appropriate instance of your subclass. Otherwise, classes like Scrollable that inform a ScrollPosition will combine them with the default ScrollPhysics object instead of your custom subclass.

Methods

adjustPositionForNewDimensions({required ScrollMetrics oldPosition, required ScrollMetrics newPosition, required bool isScrolling, required double velocity}) double
Describes what the scroll position should be given new viewport dimensions.
applyBoundaryConditions(ScrollMetrics position, double value) double
Determines the overscroll by applying the boundary conditions.
applyPhysicsToUserOffset(ScrollMetrics position, double offset) double
Used by DragScrollActivity and other user-driven activities to convert an offset in logical pixels as provided by the DragUpdateDetails into a delta to apply (subtract from the current position) using ScrollActivityDelegate.setPixels.
applyTo(ScrollPhysics? ancestor) ScrollPhysics
Combines this ScrollPhysics instance with the given physics.
buildParent(ScrollPhysics? ancestor) ScrollPhysics?
If parent is null then return ancestor, otherwise recursively build a ScrollPhysics that has ancestor as its parent.
carriedMomentum(double existingVelocity) double
Returns the velocity carried on repeated flings.
createBallisticSimulation(ScrollMetrics position, double velocity) Simulation?
Returns a simulation for ballistic scrolling starting from the given position with the given velocity.
noSuchMethod(Invocation invocation) → dynamic
Invoked when a nonexistent method or property is accessed.
inherited
recommendDeferredLoading(double velocity, ScrollMetrics metrics, BuildContext context) bool
Provides a heuristic to determine if expensive frame-bound tasks should be deferred.
shouldAcceptUserOffset(ScrollMetrics position) bool
Whether the scrollable should let the user adjust the scroll offset, for example by dragging. If allowUserScrolling is false, the scrollable will never allow user input to change the scroll position.
toleranceFor(ScrollMetrics metrics) Tolerance
The tolerance to use for ballistic simulations.
toString() String
A string representation of this object.
override

Operators

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