How to I change the disabled color of an ElevatedButton

Question

I am using Flutter ElevatedButton, which is recommended over RaisedButton in the docs.

In raised button, you could specify and disabledColor. In ElevatedButton, I can not.

How can I stylize what the ElevatedButton looks like when it is disabled?

Answer 1

You can copy paste run full code below
You can use ButtonStyle and check states.contains(MaterialState.disabled) return color you need
In demo code, disabled color is green
code snippet

    ElevatedButton(
      onPressed: null,
      child: Text('Submit disable'),
      style: ButtonStyle(
        backgroundColor: MaterialStateProperty.resolveWith<Color>(
          (Set<MaterialState> states) {
            if (states.contains(MaterialState.pressed))
              return Theme.of(context)
                  .colorScheme
                  .primary
                  .withOpacity(0.5);
            else if (states.contains(MaterialState.disabled))
              return Colors.green;
            return null; // Use the component's default.
          },
        ),
      ),
    ),
