I looked everywhere but with no clues thanks in advance

Answer 1

Sometimes, assets need re-rendering in order to update dynamically. So, Instead of hot reloading, try hot restarting, or close the app and rebuild it.

Answer 2

I was also facing the same issue. But in my case I noticed there was another error which said

Vertical viewport was given unbounded height.

Adding these two lines to ListView should fix the error:

scrollDirection: Axis.vertical,
shrinkWrap: true,

Answer 3

Can you please share the code? Because I also faced the same error but I have resolved it. Apparently, I was using a Row() widget in the Trailing of my ListTile() widget. So I just add the following property in my Row() widget

mainAxisSize: MainAxisSize.min

But, I still suggest you please share the piece of code too which is throwing that error so that someone suggests an answer more accurately.
