],

floatingActionButton: FloatingActionButton(
onPressed: _incrementCounter,

),
);
}
}
Solution 2
You can just wrap your DropdownButton
widget into DecoratedBox
:
return DecoratedBox(
decoration: ShapeDecoration(
color: Colors.cyan,
shape: RoundedRectangleBorder(
side: BorderSide(width: 1.0, style: BorderStyle.solid, color: Colors.cyan),
borderRadius: BorderRadius.all(Radius.circular(25.0)),
),
),
child: Padding(
padding: const EdgeInsets.symmetric(horizontal: 40.0, vertical: 0.0),
child: DropdownButton<String>(
value: dropdownValue,
icon: Icon(null),
elevation: 16,
onChanged: (String newValue) {
setState(() {
dropdownValue = newValue;
});
},
underline: SizedBox(),
items: <String>['City', 'Country', 'State']
.map<DropdownMenuItem<String>>((String value) {
return DropdownMenuItem<String>(
value: value,
child: Text(value),
);
}).toList(),
),
),
);

I have a dropdown button as you can see below.
child: DropdownButton<String>( value: dropDownValue, icon: Icon(Icons.keyboard_arrow_down), iconSize: 15, elevation: 16, style: TextStyle(color: Colors.grey), underline: Container( decoration: ShapeDecoration( shape: RoundedRectangleBorder( side: BorderSide(width: 1.0, style: BorderStyle.solid), borderRadius: BorderRadius.all(Radius.circular(5.0)), ), ), ), onChanged: (String newValue) { setState(() { dropDownValue = newValue; }); }, items: [dropDownValue,...snapshot.data.data] .map<DropdownMenuItem<String>>((String value) { return DropdownMenuItem<String>( value: value, child: Text(value.name), ); }).toList(), ),
I want to shape it like in the image by using decoration in Container, but i can't shape it the way i want
But right now this is the image I have. How do I add an edge to my dropdown button? Is there a known way for this?
