Yellow lines under Text Widgets in Flutter?

Question

The main app screen doesn't have this issue, all the texts show up as they should.

However, in the new screen, all the text widget have some weird yellow line / double-line underneath.

Any ideas on why this is happening?

Answer 1

The problem is having a Scaffold or not. Scaffold is a helper for Material apps ( AppBar , Drawer , that sort of stuff). But you're not forced to use Material .

What you're missing is an instance of DefaultTextStyle as a parent:

DefaultTextStyle(
  style: TextStyle(...),
  child: Text('Hello world'),
)

Various widgets add one to change the default text theme, such as Scaffold, Dialog, AppBar, ListTile, ...

It's DefaultTextStyle that allows your app-bar title to be bold by default for example.

Answer 2

Add Material widget as root element.

@override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Material(
        type: MaterialType.transparency,
        child: new Container(

Answer 3

All you need to do is provide a Material widget, or a Scaffold which internally covers this widget. You can do that in the following ways:

• Use Material (simple and better):

   Material( color: Colors.transparent, // <-- Add this, if needed child: Text('Hello'), )

• Set Text.style property:

   Text( 'Hello', style: TextStyle(decoration: TextDecoration.none), // Set this )

• Provide Scaffold :

   Scaffold(body: Text('Hello'))

Fixing yellow text issues when using Hero :

As aaronvargas mentioned, you can wrap your child in Material when using Hero on both sides. For example:

Hero(
  tag: 'fooTag',
  child: Material( // <--- Provide Material
    type: MaterialType.transparency,
    child: YourWidget(),
  ),
);

Answer 4

Text style has a decoration argument that can be set to none

Text("My Text",
  style: TextStyle(
    decoration: TextDecoration.none,
  )
);

Also, as others have mentioned, if your Text widget is in the tree of a Scaffold or Material widget you won't need the decoration text style.

Answer 5

您也可以使用装饰：TextDecoration.none 删除下划线

Answer 6

Just adding another way I encounter to these answers.

Wrap the root Widget around a DefaultTextStyle widget. Altering each Text widget is not a necessity here.

DefaultTextStyle(
    style: TextStyle(decoration: TextDecoration.none), 
    child : Your_RootWidget
)

Hope it helps someone.

Answer 7

Inside your Text Widget , use the style property and set decoration to null like shown:

Text( 
   "hello world",
   style: TextStyle(
       decoration: TextDecoration.none
   ),
)

This will remove the yellow lines under the text.

Answer 8

You should add Material and Scaffold widgets in main.dart file

 MaterialApp(
  home: Scaffold(
    body: Text('Hello world'),
  ),
);

Answer 9

2 ways is avalible:

use scaffuld in parent of screen

Scaffold(body: Container(child:Text("My Text")))

use material for parent of widget

Material(child: Text("My Text"))

Answer 10

You just need to add Material root widget.

      @override
       Widget build(BuildContext context) {
      return Material(
         child: new Container(),
        );
       }

Answer 11

There is an other solution for this , especially if you are using multiple pages wrapped under main.dart file You can do something like this:

  child: MaterialApp(
    home: Material(child: Wrapper()),
  ),

This will remove the yellow lines under text that is present in any pages referenced/used under wrapper.

Answer 12

problem : your widget doesn't have default text style,

solution : wrap it in one!

DefaultTextStyle(
    style: TextStyle(),
    child: yourWidget,
  );

remember if you dont set any color, default text color is white!

Answer 13

The yellow lines come from _errorTextStyle . The documentation states that you should define a DefaultTextStyle parent (or use Material , which does this for you):

MaterialApp uses this TextStyle as its DefaultTextStyle to encourage developers to be intentional about their DefaultTextStyle.

In Material Design, most Text widgets are contained in Material widgets, which sets a specific DefaultTextStyle. If you're seeing text that uses this text style, consider putting your text in a Material widget (or another widget that sets a DefaultTextStyle).

Developing Flutter apps without material is not something most people do, but if that's your use case, you should use DefaultTextStyle .

Contrary to the accepted answer, Theme does not set a DefaultTextStyle , so it does not solve your problem. Scaffold does solve the problem, as it contains Material , which in turn defines DefaultTextStyle , but Scaffold is a bit more than you need for a Dialog , Hero , etc.

To permanently solve this for your whole app, you could set the DefaultTextStyle in your MaterialApp builder . This solves the issue for all the components of your app, not just the current screen you're working on.

Before

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Column(
      mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
      children: [
        Center(
          child: Text(
            "21:34",
            style: TextStyle(fontSize: 50),
          ),
        ),
        Center(
          child: Text(
            "Wakey - wakey",
            style: TextStyle(fontSize: 20),
          ),
        )
      ],
    );
  }

After (Solution):

Here Wrap the current top or parent widget with Scaffold widget

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      body: Column(
        mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
        children: [
          Center(
            child: Text(
              "21:34",
              style: TextStyle(fontSize: 50),
            ),
          ),
          Center(
            child: Text(
              "Wakey - wakey",
              style: TextStyle(fontSize: 20),
            ),
          )
        ],
      ),
    );
  }

Full code: Dartpad or Live code

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

void main() => runApp(MaterialApp(home: sta()));

class sta extends StatefulWidget {
  const sta({Key? key}) : super(key: key);

  @override
  State<sta> createState() => _staState();
}

var isShow = false;


class _staState extends State<sta> {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      body: Column(
        mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
        children: [
          Center(
            child: Text(
              "21:34",
              style: TextStyle(fontSize: 50),
            ),
          ),
          Center(
            child: Text(
              "Wakey - wakey",
              style: TextStyle(fontSize: 20),
            ),
          )
        ],
      ),
    );
  }
}

Answer 15

You can also have your scaffold as the home for your MaterialApp. This worked for me.

return MaterialApp(
  home: Scaffold(
    body: Container(
      child: SingleChildScrollView(child: Text('Test')),
    ),
  ),
);

Answer 16

I recommend this approach because you could do it once and it will override your whole app.

Add DefaultTextStyle under builder of our MaterialApp like so:

child: MaterialApp(      
  ...
  ...
  theme: yourThemeData,
  builder: (context, child) => DefaultTextStyle(
    style: yourThemeData.textTheme.bodyText1,
    child: child,
  ),
),

By doing so we don't need to specify a style or having DefaultTextTheme every time we want to use showDialog or Overlay .

Answer 17

The text has a hidden default text style .The problem arises because you can't provide this to any parent widget like Scaffold . Text widget takes the default style. for your solution either you can change the DefaultTextStyle like this.

DefaultTextStyle(
    style: TextStyle(),
    child: yourTextWidget,
  );

or just wrap into Scaffold, Scaffold is a widget. that provides scaffolding for pages in your app. like this

 MaterialApp(
  home: Scaffold(
    body: Text('Wakey Wakey!'),
  ),
);

Answer 18

Use a DefaultTextStyle() widget to set the textstyle of your text.

DefaultTextStyle(
  style: kTempTextStyle,
  child: Text('Hello world'),
)

you can give your own textstyle as you want.

const kTempTextStyle = TextStyle(
  fontFamily: 'Spartan MB',
  fontSize: 100.0,
  decoration: null,
);
