Expanded widgets must be placed inside Flex widgets
You do not have a Flex
ancestor.
An Expanded widget must be a descendant of a Row, Column, or Flex, and the path from the Expanded widget to its enclosing Row, Column, or Flex must contain only StatelessWidgets or StatefulWidgets (not other kinds of widgets, like RenderObjectWidgets).
I am not sure about the need for Expanded
in your case. But removing it or wrapping it in a Column
should fix the problem.
Crash
This crashes because Expanded is not a descendant of a Flex widget:
Container(
child: Expanded(
child: MyWidget(),
),
)
Acceptable
Here Expanded is a descendant of Flex:
Flex(
direction: Axis.horizontal,
children: [
Expanded(
child: MyWidget(),
),
],
)
Row is also a Flex widget:
Row(
children: [
Expanded(
child: MyWidget(),
),
],
)
And so is Column:
Column(
children: [
Expanded(
child: MyWidget(),
),
],
)
Another option is to just get rid of the Expanded widget:
Container(
child: MyWidget(),
)
