InkWell not showing ripple effect

Question

Tapping the container triggers the onTap() handler but does not show any ink splash effect.

class _MyHomePageState extends State

        

Answer 1

I was hit by a similar problem adding an Inkwell to an existing complex Widget with a Container wrapping a BoxDecoration with a color. By adding the Material and Inkwell in the way suggested the Inkwell was still obscured by the BoxDecoration so I just made the BoxDecoration's color slightly opaque which allowed the Inkwell to be seen
