Deprecate `InputDecoration.maintainHintHeight` in favor of `InputDecoration.maintainHintSize`
Summary
#The InputDecoration.maintainHintHeight
parameter was deprecated in favor of the InputDecoration.maintainHintSize
parameter.
Context
#The default intrinsic size of an input decorator depends on the hint size. The InputDecoration.maintainHintSize
parameter can be set to false
to make the intrinsic size ignores the hint size when the hint isn't visible. Previously, the InputDecoration.maintainHintHeight
parameter was used to override the default intrinsic height and had no impact on the intrinsic width.
Description of change
#The InputDecoration.maintainHintHeight
is deprecated in favor of InputDecoration.maintainHintSize
which makes both the intrinsic width and height depend on the hint dimensions.
Migration guide
#Replace InputDecoration.maintainHintHeight
with InputDecoration.maintainHintSize
to override the default intrinsic size computation.
Code before migration:
TextField(
indicator: InputDecoration(
maintainHintHeight: false,
),
),
Code after migration:
TextField(
indicator: InputDecoration(
maintainHintSize: false,
),
),
