Fixing TextField Issues in StatefulBuilder Inside a Modal Bottom Sheet in Flutter

When developing applications with Flutter, it's not uncommon to run into unexpected behaviors, especially when dealing with UI components like modal bottom sheets. One such issue arises when using a TextField within a StatefulBuilder inside a showModalBottomSheet. Developers might find that interacting with the TextField causes the keyboard to flicker or the modal to reset unexpectedly. In this post, we’ll explore this problem in detail and provide effective solutions.

Understanding the Issue

When you implement a showModalBottomSheet to display a feedback form, utilizing a StatefulBuilder is essential for managing state changes without affecting the entire widget tree. However, many developers face the problem where the keyboard appears momentarily and then the modal resets to its original state. This can be frustrating when trying to collect user input efficiently.

Common Scenario:

A TextField is nested inside a StatefulBuilder in showModalBottomSheet.

On tapping the TextField, the keyboard appears and then disappears, causing the modal to reset.

Solutions to the Problem

Fortunately, there are several strategies to fix this issue and ensure that the TextField works as expected within the modal bottom sheet. Let’s take a look at a couple of solutions.

Solution 1: Correcting the GestureDetector Setup

One reason for the flickering behavior could be due to how the GestureDetector is set up. It is crucial to allow tapping on the TextField while preventing unnecessary dismissal of the keyboard. Here’s a code snippet that highlights a corrected version of the showModalBottomSheet implementation:

Solution 2: Refactoring into a Separate StatefulWidget

If the issue persists, another approach involves refactoring the modal's content into its own StatefulWidget. This can help in isolating the state management, reducing complexity within the modal. Here’s how you could do that:

In this new widget, you can manage the TextField and its state independently, ensuring that interactions do not interfere with other parts of your modal.

Conclusion

Using TextField inside a StatefulBuilder within a Modal Bottom Sheet can lead to unintended behaviors, but with the right solutions, you can resolve these issues smoothly. By adjusting how the GestureDetector operates or by refactoring your widget structure, you can improve the user experience and maintain the functionality of your application's feedback forms.
