Design Complex UI in Flutter - Animated Drawer Widget

Published November 07, 2020


How to implement a complex UI in Flutter.

In this example, we are creating an Animated widget with 3d Animation.

Widgets used in this Example are

  • GestureDetector
  • AnimatedBuilder
  • Transform
  • Stack

 

 

GestureDetector widget is used to Handle the Gesture events like drag events.

AnimatedBuilder widget is used to Make an animation for the widget.

Transform widget is used to make transition animation for the widget

Stack widget is used to align the widgets for the main widget and Drawer events.

 

 

Handle the Drag Events by

GestureDetector(
  onHorizontalDragStart: _onDragStart,
  onHorizontalDragUpdate: _onDragUpdate,
  onHorizontalDragEnd: _onDragEnd,

)

 

Create Animation Controller to do the Animation by

animationController=AnimationController(vsync: this,duration: Duration(milliseconds: 225));

 

Gesture events

void _onDragStart(DragStartDetails dragStartDetails)
{
  bool isDragOpenFromLeft=animationController.isDismissed&&dragStartDetails.globalPosition.dx<minDragStartEdge;
  bool isDragCloseFromRight=animationController.isCompleted&&dragStartDetails.globalPosition.dx>maxDragStartEdge;
  _canBeDragged=isDragOpenFromLeft||isDragCloseFromRight;
}

void _onDragUpdate(DragUpdateDetails dragStartDetails)
{
  if(_canBeDragged)
  {
    double delta=dragStartDetails.primaryDelta/maxSlide;
    animationController.value+=delta;
  }
}
void _onDragEnd(DragEndDetails details) {
  //I have no idea what it means, copied from Drawer
  double _kMinFlingVelocity = 365.0;

  if (animationController.isDismissed || animationController.isCompleted) {
    return;
  }
  if (details.velocity.pixelsPerSecond.dx.abs() >= _kMinFlingVelocity) {
    double visualVelocity = details.velocity.pixelsPerSecond.dx /
        MediaQuery.of(context).size.width;

    animationController.fling(velocity: visualVelocity);
  } else if (animationController.value < 0.5) {
    animationController.reverse();
  } else {
    animationController.forward();
  }
}

 

How to add Smooth Animation for the widget?

 

Add Animation for the Main widget by

Transform.translate(
  offset: Offset(maxSlide * animationController.value, 0),
  child: Transform(
    transform: Matrix4.identity()
      ..setEntry(3, 2, 0.001)
      ..rotateY(-math.pi * animationController.value / 2),
    alignment: Alignment.centerLeft,
    child: getWidget(),
  ),
)

 

Add Animation for Drawer widget by

Transform.translate(
  offset: Offset(maxSlide * (animationController.value - 1), 0),
  child: Transform(
    transform: Matrix4.identity()
      ..setEntry(3, 2, 0.001)
      ..rotateY(math.pi / 2 * (1 - animationController.value)),
    alignment: Alignment.centerRight,
    child: MyDrawer(onMenuSelect:(pos){
      animationController.reverse();

      setState(() {

        position=pos;
      });
    }),
  ),
),
