How to remove space between widgets in Column in flutter?
I see the problem isn't in the Column widget, it's in the first child of it, it takes longer height than you expect, I recommend to use Widget inspector for diagnosing layout issues in the future.
Here is the fix:
1- No need here for the widget, just remove it.
Flexible( flex: 1, ...)
2- Set proper dimensions to your avatar image by wrapping it in a Container
like this:
Container( width: 50, height: 50, child: ClipOval(clipper: CircleClipper(), child: Image.asset('assets/irene.jpg')),)
Finally, here is the updated full code:
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';import 'package:flutter/services.dart'; void main() { SystemChrome.setEnabledSystemUIOverlays([]); runApp(MyApp()); } class MyApp extends StatelessWidget { @override Widget build(BuildContext context) { return MaterialApp( title: 'Flutter Clock', theme: ThemeData(primaryColor: Colors.blue), home: Social(), debugShowCheckedModeBanner: false, ); } } class Social extends StatelessWidget { @override Widget build(BuildContext context) { return Scaffold( appBar: AppBar(backgroundColor: Colors.white, elevation: 0.0), backgroundColor: Colors.white, body: Column( children: <Widget>[ Row( children: <Widget>[ Container( width: 50, height: 50, child: ClipOval(clipper: CircleClipper(), child: Image.asset('assets/irene.jpg')), ), Expanded( child: Padding( padding: const EdgeInsets.only(left: 8.0), child: Column( mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.start, children: <Widget>[ Align( alignment: Alignment.centerLeft, child: Text('Irene', style: TextStyle(color: Colors.blue, fontWeight: FontWeight.bold, fontSize: 15.0))), Align(alignment: Alignment.centerLeft, child: Text('Yesterday, Ney York')) ], ), ), ), Align( alignment: Alignment.topRight, child: IconButton( color: Theme.of(context).primaryColor, icon: Icon(Icons.menu), onPressed: () {}, ), ) ], ), Container( width: MediaQuery.of(context).size.width / 1.1, height: MediaQuery.of(context).size.height / 2, child: Card( child: Image.asset('assets/irene.jpg'), color: Colors.white, shape: RoundedRectangleBorder(borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(30.0)), elevation: 10.0, ), ), Padding( padding: const EdgeInsets.only(left: 30.0, right: 30.0, top: 15.0), child: Row( children: <Widget>[ Icon(Icons.thumb_up, color: Colors.black), SizedBox( width: 20.0, ), Icon(Icons.chat, color: Colors.black), Expanded(child: Container()), Icon(Icons.share, color: Colors.black), ], ), ), Expanded(child: Container()), ], ), ); } }
