ReorderableListView inside SingleChildScrollView

Question

I try to use ReorderableListView inside SingleChildScrollView, but I receive a error:

Answer 1

Official Flutter's ReorderableListView is missing a parameter that regular ListView does have and the one you need - shrinkWrap: true. It's a known issue.

Without this parameter, you have to limit its height yourself (for example, wrap it in a Container with fixed height) or remove parent scrollable (SingleChildScrollView).

Or you can use some other reorderable widgets that were made by community - like this one or that one.

Answer 2

in listview give physics like

physics : NeverScrollableScrollPhysics()

it works for me

Answer 3

To get a fixed height of a dynamic list you can put it in a Container with the height of yourList.length*HeightOfEachElement.

for example:

    Container(
    /*If you don't the height to be bigger than the height of your screen
    use MediaQuery.of(context).size.height.
    You can add a -200 to the end if you don't want it to take up the whole 
    screen*/
      constraints: BoxConstraints(
        maxHeight: MediaQuery.of(context).size.height,
            ),
    /*If each of the elements you are creating are 65 pixels high which sort      
    of fits a card widget or something similar...*/
      height: yourList.length * 65.0,
      child: ListView.builder(...)
