Gesture response outside of stack boundary not recieved

Question

I am trying to implement a re-sizable widget with handles at the corners. The corner handles will be overflow the Stack by half of its width/height.

Answer 1

This is the desired behavior. If widgets could catch pointer events outside of their boundaries; it would be easy to fall into a situation where it's impossible to determine which widget is targeted.

In short, don't use overflow. Refactor your layout to make sure it's well contained inside the bounds of its parent.
