In Flutter, how can a positioned Widget feel taps outside of its parent Stack area?
A Stack contains MyWidget inside of a Positioned . Stack( overflow: Overflow.visible, children: [ Positioned( top: 0.0, left: 0.0, child: MyWidget(), )], ); Since overflow is Overflow.visible and MyWidget is larger than the Stack , it displays outside of the Stack , which is what I want. However, I can't tap in the area of MyWidget which is outside of the Stack area. It simply ignores the tap there. How can I make sure MyWidget accepts gestures there? This behavior occurs because the stack checks whether the pointer is inside its bounds before checking whether a child got hit: Class: RenderBox
