Intro to Custom Drawing

Flutter's widgets are powerful, but sometimes you need to draw something truly unique. Think custom graphs, unique shapes, or special visual effects!

This is where custom drawing comes in. It gives you pixel-level control over what appears on the screen, letting you create anything imaginable.

Meet CustomPainter

At the heart of custom drawing in Flutter is the CustomPainter class. You extend this class to define what and how to draw.

  • It provides a canvas to draw on.
  • It requires you to implement two key methods: paint and shouldRepaint.

The Canvas: Your Drawing Board

The paint method receives a Canvas object. Think of the Canvas as your blank drawing board, ready for your artistic commands.

It uses a 2D Cartesian coordinate system: the top-left corner is (0,0). X-values increase to the right, and Y-values increase downwards.

Styling with Paint

Before you draw, you need to tell Flutter how to draw. This is done using a Paint object. The Paint object defines properties like:

  • Color: What color should the drawing be?
  • StrokeWidth: How thick should lines be?
  • Style: Should it be filled (PaintingStyle.fill) or just an outline (PaintingStyle.stroke)?

Drawing Basic Shapes: Line

Let's draw our first shape: a simple line! We use canvas.drawLine(), providing start and end points (Offset) and our Paint style.

Try running this example:

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

void main() {
  runApp(const MyApp());
}

class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
  const MyApp({super.key});

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return MaterialApp(
      home: Scaffold(
        appBar: AppBar(title: const Text('Draw Line')),
        body: Center(
          child: CustomPaint(
            painter: LinePainter(),
            child: Container(),
          ),
        ),
      ),
    );
  }
}

class LinePainter extends CustomPainter {
  @override
  void paint(Canvas canvas, Size size) {
    final paint = Paint()
      ..color = Colors.blue
      ..strokeWidth = 4.0
      ..style = PaintingStyle.stroke;

    final p1 = Offset(0, size.height / 2);
    final p2 = Offset(size.width, size.height / 2);

    canvas.drawLine(p1, p2, paint);
  }

  @override
  bool shouldRepaint(covariant LinePainter oldDelegate) => false;
}

Drawing Basic Shapes: Circle

Drawing a circle is just as easy with canvas.drawCircle(). You need a center point, a radius, and a Paint object.

Notice how we use size.width / 2 and size.height / 2 to center our drawings.

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

void main() {
  runApp(const MyApp());
}

class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
  const MyApp({super.key});

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return MaterialApp(
      home: Scaffold(
        appBar: AppBar(title: const Text('Draw Circle')),
        body: Center(
          child: CustomPaint(
            painter: CirclePainter(),
            child: Container(),
          ),
        ),
      ),
    );
  }
}

class CirclePainter extends CustomPainter {
  @override
  void paint(Canvas canvas, Size size) {
    final paint = Paint()
      ..color = Colors.red
      ..strokeWidth = 5.0
      ..style = PaintingStyle.fill;

    final center = Offset(size.width / 2, size.height / 2);
    final radius = size.width / 4;

    canvas.drawCircle(center, radius, paint);
  }

  @override
  bool shouldRepaint(covariant CirclePainter oldDelegate) => false;
}

Drawing Basic Shapes: Rectangle

To draw a rectangle, we use canvas.drawRect(). This method takes a Rect object, which defines the rectangle's position and size.

A Rect.fromLTWH constructor is useful for defining a rectangle from its left, top, width, and height.

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

void main() {
  runApp(const MyApp());
}

class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
  const MyApp({super.key});

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return MaterialApp(
      home: Scaffold(
        appBar: AppBar(title: const Text('Draw Rectangle')),
        body: Center(
          child: CustomPaint(
            painter: RectanglePainter(),
            child: Container(),
          ),
        ),
      ),
    );
  }
}

class RectanglePainter extends CustomPainter {
  @override
  void paint(Canvas canvas, Size size) {
    final paint = Paint()
      ..color = Colors.green
      ..strokeWidth = 3.0
      ..style = PaintingStyle.stroke;

    final rect = Rect.fromLTWH(size.width * 0.2, size.height * 0.2, size.width * 0.6, size.height * 0.6);

    canvas.drawRect(rect, paint);
  }

  @override
  bool shouldRepaint(covariant RectanglePainter oldDelegate) => false;
}

The shouldRepaint Method

The shouldRepaint method in CustomPainter is crucial for performance. It tells Flutter whether your custom painting needs to be redrawn.

  • Return true if the new delegate (the updated painter) has different data that would change the drawing.
  • Return false if the drawing would be identical. This prevents unnecessary repaints and saves CPU cycles.

For static drawings, false is often sufficient.

Drawing Complex Shapes with Path

For more complex or irregular shapes, you'll use a Path object. A Path allows you to define a series of connected lines and curves.

You can move to a point (moveTo), draw lines to points (lineTo), and finally close the path (close) before drawing it with canvas.drawPath().

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

void main() {
  runApp(const MyApp());
}

class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
  const MyApp({super.key});

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return MaterialApp(
      home: Scaffold(
        appBar: AppBar(title: const Text('Draw Triangle')),
        body: Center(
          child: CustomPaint(
            painter: TrianglePainter(),
            child: Container(),
          ),
        ),
      ),
    );
  }
}

class TrianglePainter extends CustomPainter {
  @override
  void paint(Canvas canvas, Size size) {
    final paint = Paint()
      ..color = Colors.purple
      ..style = PaintingStyle.fill;

    final path = Path();
    path.moveTo(size.width / 2, size.height * 0.1);
    path.lineTo(size.width * 0.9, size.height * 0.9);
    path.lineTo(size.width * 0.1, size.height * 0.9);
    path.close();

    canvas.drawPath(path, paint);
  }

  @override
  bool shouldRepaint(covariant TrianglePainter oldDelegate) => false;
}
