How to apply both TextStyle and textTheme to a Text widget in flutter?

Question

For a Text like:

Text(
   'Hello World',
   style: Theme.of(context).textTheme.display1,
    )

Is there a way to merge textTheme with a TextStyle? Like say, to modify the color of the text..

Solution 1

We do something like

Theme.of(context)
.textTheme.display1
.merge(TextStyle(color: Colors.red)

and apply it to the style

Solution 2

Merge method causes error in Flutter 2.2 because of the null safety feature. Don't forget to add "?" after the variable.

Theme.of(context).textTheme.display1?.merge(TextStyle(color: Colors.red)
