How to make icon button overlapping container widgets in Flutter?

Question

I'm really new to Flutter. In the homepage, I intend to build the page something like this:

The other widgets are working pretty fine, but when I come to developing the double button like the design that overlapping the container widgets below, it's not working at all.

My first approach is using Stack which contain Positioned widgets (for the double button) and Container (for the other things). But, the Positioned widgets despite having a dummy child widget is not visible at all, whereas the Container is perfectly working. I don't know whether the Positioned is written in a wrong way, or else.

Here's the source code: https://github.com/andre-nk23/packme/blob/master/lib/main.dart

Can anyone help me here? To make those two button overlapping the container? Thank you.

Note : I'm using several imported packages, please notify me if those packages affects the process of developing the overlap double button.

Answer 1

Have you tried Stack? You can approach this many ways, I just made this in a rush.have a look

Container(
          height: 280,
          width: 400,
          child: Stack(
            children: [
              Positioned(
                bottom: 0,
                child: Container(
                  height: 250,
                  width: 400,
                  decoration: BoxDecoration(
                    color: Colors.pinkAccent,
                    borderRadius: BorderRadius.only(
                      topRight: Radius.circular(30),
                      topLeft: Radius.circular(30),
                    )
                  ),
                ),
              ),
              Positioned(
                top: 0,
                right: 100,
                child: FloatingActionButton(
                  onPressed: (){},
                  child: Icon(
                    Icons.check_box
                  ),
                ),
              ),
              Positioned(
                top: 0,
                left: 100,
                child: FloatingActionButton(
                  onPressed: (){},
                  child: Icon(
                    Icons.check_box
                  ),
                ),
              ),
            ],
          ),
        )

Use Row For Positioning both of the Buttons in container.

     Container(
              height: 280,
              width: MediaQuery.of(context).size.width,
              child: Stack(
                children: [
                  Positioned(
                    bottom: 0,
                    child: Container(
                      height: 250,
                      width: 400,
                      decoration: BoxDecoration(
                          color: Colors.pinkAccent,
                      ),
                    ),
                  ),
                  Positioned(
                    child: Row(
   mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.spaceEvenly,                   children: [
                        FloatingActionButton(
                          onPressed: (){},
                          child: Icon(
                              Icons.person
                          ),
                        ),
                      FloatingActionButton(
                        onPressed: (){},
                        child: Icon(
                            Icons.face
                        ),
                      ),
                      ],
                    ),
                  ),
                ],
              ),
            )

Hello Andrea, this is the necessary code which you can implement perfectly. Well, I have removed the redundant widgets which was been used to make the code cleaner.The stack was used by me to implement your question.
