Error ExpansionTile is not working or stack (Flutter)

Question

I'm trying to solve an issue; however, it still not working and I'm getting the same error. I hope someone could give me an answer, thanks.

Code

  child: FirestoreListView<MainCategory>(
                    scrollDirection: Axis.horizontal,
                    query: mainCategoryCollection(widget.selectedCat),
                    itemBuilder: (context, snapshot) {
                      MainCategory mainCategory = snapshot.data();
                      return ExpansionTile(
                          title: Text(mainCategory.mainCategory!),
                        children: [
                          SubCategoryWidget(
                            selectedSubCat: mainCategory.mainCategory,
                          ),
                        
                        ],
                        );
                    },
                  ),
);

} } `

Answer 1

Wrap FirestoreListView with SizedBox and add a height to the later; if FirestoreListView 's parent is a box ( SizedBox , Container , ConstrainedBox ... ), add height to the parent instead.
