如何检查 flutter 中的两个小部件是否重叠？

Question

I wanted to know if we can check if two widgets in flutter are overlapping. I actually have two AnimatedContainer stacked using Stack. I wanted to check if the children of the two overlap. I actually am creating a game from scratch and wanted to check collisions. Though x's and y's are an option, but it depends on height and width of the two objects and as they are having different, so results are very inaccurate.

Any help would be appreciated.

You can pass a key to the widget and then use key.currentContext.findRenderObject() to get the render object.

Here is a working examlpe

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

void main() => runApp(MyApp());

class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) => MaterialApp(home: MyPage());
}

class MyPage extends StatefulWidget {
  @override
  _MyPageState createState() => _MyPageState();
}

class _MyPageState extends State<MyPage> with WidgetsBindingObserver {
  final containerKey1 = GlobalKey();
  final containerKey2 = GlobalKey();

  Alignment box2Align = Alignment.topRight;

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      body: SafeArea(
        child: Stack(
          children: [
            Align(
              alignment: Alignment.topLeft,
              child: Container(
                key: containerKey1,
                color: Colors.pink,
                width: 100.0,
                height: 100.0,
              ),
            ),
            Align(
              alignment: box2Align,
              child: Transform.translate(
                offset: const Offset(10.0, 10.0),
                child: Container(
                  key: containerKey2,
                  color: Colors.purple.withOpacity(0.75),
                  width: 100.0,
                  height: 100.0,
                ),
              ),
            ),
            // Buttons
            Column(
              mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
              crossAxisAlignment: CrossAxisAlignment.stretch,
              children: [
                FlatButton(
                  color: Colors.yellow,
                  child: Text('Move containers'),
                  onPressed: () => setState(() {
                    if (box2Align == Alignment.topRight)
                      box2Align = Alignment.topLeft;
                    else
                      box2Align = Alignment.topRight;
                  }),
                ),
                FlatButton(
                  color: Colors.yellow,
                  child: Text('Check if boxesCollide'),
                  onPressed: _onCheckTap,
                ),
              ],
            ),
          ],
        ),
      ),
    );
  }

  void _onCheckTap() {
    RenderBox box1 = containerKey1.currentContext.findRenderObject();
    RenderBox box2 = containerKey2.currentContext.findRenderObject();

    final size1 = box1.size;
    final size2 = box2.size;

    final position1 = box1.localToGlobal(Offset.zero);
    final position2 = box2.localToGlobal(Offset.zero);

    final collide = (position1.dx < position2.dx + size2.width &&
        position1.dx + size1.width > position2.dx &&
        position1.dy < position2.dy + size2.height &&
        position1.dy + size1.height > position2.dy);

    print('Containers collide: $collide');
  }
}

I'm trying to figure out how to make a minimal game engine as a learning exercise and this example was helpful, but wouldn't compile in dartpad. I've updated the example provided by YoBo to be compatible with DartPad as of 08/29/2022 here:

Thanks YoBo!
