Flutter Layout Row / Column - share width, expand height
Have a look at IntrinsicHeight
; wrapping the root Row should provide the effect you're looking for:
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
void main() => runApp(MyApp());
class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return MaterialApp(
title: 'Flutter Demo',
theme: ThemeData(
primarySwatch: Colors.blue,
),
home: Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(title: Text('Rows & Columns')),
body: RowsAndColumns(),
),
);
}
}
class RowsAndColumns extends StatelessWidget {
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Padding(
padding: const EdgeInsets.only(top: 100.0),
child: IntrinsicHeight(
child: Row(crossAxisAlignment: CrossAxisAlignment.stretch, children: [
Expanded(
child: Column(children: [
Container(height: 120.0, color: Colors.yellow),
Container(height: 100.0, color: Colors.cyan),
]),
),
Expanded(child: Container(color: Colors.amber)),
]),
),
);
}
}
Adjusting the heights in the containers in the column cause the container on the right to resize to match:

I'm new to flutter. Please correct me if I'm doing something wrong here. I think It can also be achieved using setState((){}) without using IntrinsicHeight.
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
void main() {
runApp(MyApp());
}`enter code here`
class MyApp extends StatefulWidget {
@override
State<StatefulWidget> createState() {
return MyAppState();
}
}
class MyAppState extends State<MyApp> {
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
double h1 = 100;
double h2 = 200;
double h3;
setState(() {
h3 = h1 + h2;
});
return MaterialApp(
home: Scaffold(
body: SafeArea(
child: Padding(
padding: const EdgeInsets.only(top: 100.0),
child: Row(
crossAxisAlignment: CrossAxisAlignment.start,
children: [
Expanded(
child: Column(
children: [
Container(
color: Colors.green,
height: h1,
),
Container(
color: Colors.orange,
height: h2,
)
],
),
),
Expanded(
child: Container(
color: Colors.yellow,
height: h3,
),
)
],
),
),
),
),
);
}
}
