How to get AppBar height in Flutter?

How can I get the height of an AppBar in Flutter?
I am using the MarialApp Widget ('package:flutter/material.dart').
I have the height of my Context and would like to deduct the height of the appbar.
final double height = MediaQuery.of(context).size.height;

This is not an ideal way, I think, but it will work.
Firstly declare the AppBar
widget that you will use in your Scaffold
.
Widget demoPage() {
AppBar appBar = AppBar(
title: Text('Demo'),
);
return Scaffold(
appBar: appBar,
body: /*
page body
*/,
);
}
Now you can get the height of your appBar
using its preferredSized
:
double height = appBar.preferredSize.height;
You can use this height to reduce from the screen height.
final double height = MediaQuery.of(context).size.height;
Solution 2 - Android
you can use this :
var height = AppBar().preferredSize.height;
this way is very sample and easy

There is no need to store the AppBar
instance, or to create a dummy one to get the height. Also, AppBar.preferredSize
will always return the same value of 56.0
, which is the standard of Material Design, and this value will not be always usable for some cases (it lacks the height of the status bar for example).
Since an AppBar
is surely used with a Scaffold
, IMHO, the smarter way to get the real AppBar
height (the distance between the top of the device and the top of the Scaffold
body) is to use:
double height = Scaffold.of(context).appBarMaxHeight;
With this, the computed height will include (independently of the platform):
- The status bar height
- The app bar height
- The bottom app bar widget height if any (ex. TabBar)
Hope this will help!

There is a constant for the normal toolbar height: kToolbarHeight
Solution 5 - Android
Just watch in AppBar
MediaQuery.of(context).padding.top + kToolbarHeight
Solution 6 - Android
Get body height:
MediaQuery.of(context).size.height - (MediaQuery.of(context).padding.top + kToolbarHeight)
I hope, this solution will also help you. Thanks to ask this question.
Solution 7 - Android
AppBar has a fixed height of 56.
You should create your own appbar implementing PreferredSizeWidget
class TestAppBar extends StatelessWidget implements PreferredSizeWidget {
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return AppBar(
title: Text('TEST'),
centerTitle: true,
);
}
@override
Size get preferredSize => Size.fromHeight(34);
}
Solution 8 - Android
You can get height of AppBar by using:
double height = appBar.preferredSize.height;
Make sure you have declared AppBar widget.
Solution 9 - Android
You can use this:
@override
final Size preferredSize; // default is 56.0
WidgetAppBar({@required this.appBarTitle, @required this.appBarColor, Key key}) : preferredSize = Size.fromHeight(40), super(key: key);
Solution 10 - Android
Use preferred size
//defined as
Size preferredSize
preferred size is a size whose height is the sum of kToolbarHeight and the bottom widget's preferred height.
Scaffold uses this size to set its app bar's height.
It is defined like below in app bar class which implement PreferredSizeWidget
preferredSize = new Size.fromHeight(kToolbarHeight + (bottom?.preferredSize?.height ?? 0.0))

Solution 11 - Android
This will give height of appbar or statusbar
var height = MediaQuery.of(context).padding.top;
However, this will work only in mobile devices, other devices don't have status bar
