Flutter Cursor Position on Text Field

Question

I want to append text after the cursor position. For example: when the user moved the cursor of the text field middle. I want to get the cursor location on the text and I'll add text after the cursor location.

I tried with Text Edit Controller but I can't reach the cursor location with this. How can detect the cursor location on the text field?

Solution

I fixed my problem with this;

// Get cursor current position
                    var cursorPos =
                        _textEditController.selection.base.offset;
                    // Right text of cursor position
                    String suffixText =
                        _textEditController.text.substring(cursorPos);
                    // Add new text on cursor position
                    String specialChars = ' text_1 ';
                    int length = specialChars.length;
                    // Get the left text of cursor
                    String prefixText =
                        _textEditController.text.substring(0, cursorPos);
                    _textEditController.text =
                        prefixText + specialChars + suffixText;
                    // Cursor move to end of added text
                    _textEditController.selection = TextSelection(
                      baseOffset: cursorPos + length,
                      extentOffset: cursorPos + length,
                    );
