Flutter: ListView in a SimpleDialog

Question

I want to show a SimpleDialog with ListView.builder in my Flutter app with this code:

showDialog(
  context: context,
  builder: (BuildContext context) {
           


        

Answer 1

Wraping the ListView in a Container and giving it a width: double.maxFinite, solves the problem with iOS/Android having trouble with ListView inside a dialog:

showDialog(
   context: context,
   builder: (BuildContext context) {
      return AlertDialog(
         content: Container(
            width: double.maxFinite,
            child: ListView(
               children: []
            ),
         ),
      );
   }
);

In the case of a ListView inside a Column that is inside an AlertDialog:

showDialog(
   context: context,
   builder: (BuildContext context) {
      return AlertDialog(
         content: Container(
            width: double.maxFinite,
            child: Column(
               mainAxisSize: MainAxisSize.min,
               children: [
                  Expanded(
                     child: ListView(
                        shrinkWrap: true,
                        children: []
                     )
                  )
               ]
            ),
         ),
      );
   }
);
