Cannot remove underside padding from TextField and TextFormField in Flutter

Question

I have this widget:

TextFormField(
  controller: _activityName,
  autocorrect: true,
  textAlign: TextAlign.start,
  decoration: InputDecoration(
      contentPadding = EdgeInsets.zero,



      border: UnderlineInputBorder(

      ),

      hintText: ""),
  maxLines: 1,
  cursorColor: Colors.white,
),

As you can see I explicitly set the padding to be 0, as this answer said: How do I remove content padding from TextField?

But the result I get is this:

As you can see under the Text MyActivity there is a lot of padding, but I can't get rid of it. It looks like a bug, but I'm not sure:

This is the flutter doctor:

This is how to get 0 padding textFields:

TextField(
  decoration: InputDecoration(
    contentPadding: EdgeInsets.all(0),
    isDense: true,
  ),
);
