Navigating from a TabBarView Child to another Route (full screen)

Viewed 8196

I have a TabBarView containg 4 tabs. They all have a button that can be used to navigate to another Route, but the navigation is done in the tabs itself i.e. The tabbed Appbar still exists, how to navigate to those routes without the tabbed appbar.

Edit: At the home page there are some buttons which take the user to the Tabbed Page, At that Page the TabBarView has Page 2 with different Strings passed, now Page 2 is used to call a widget which verifies user login, logout and stuff and returns the correct widget. When the user is logged in there's a Fab which takes them to a new route, now that route is still navigating in the tabbed view which i want to change.

TabbedView

 home: DefaultTabController(
    length: 4,
    child: Scaffold(
      appBar: AppBar(
        bottom: TabBar(
          tabs: [
            Tab(text: ("Numbers")),
            Tab(text: ("Relationship")),
            Tab(text: ("Word")),
            Tab(text: ("Sentence"))
          ],
        ),
       ------
       ------

      ),
    ),
  ),

      ),
      body: TabBarView(
        children: [
          Page2("Number" ),
          Page2("Relationship"),
          Page2("Word"),
          Page2("Sentence"),
        ],
      ),
    ),
  ),
);

Page2

return new MaterialApp(
    theme: new ThemeData(
      primarySwatch: Colors.blue,
    ),
      home: new Scaffold(
       body: new RootPage(auth: new Auth()
    )
  )
);

OnloggedIn

return new HomePage(
        userId: _userId,
        auth: widget.auth,
        onSignedOut: _onSignedOut,
      );

Fab

return new Scaffold(
-----
-----
floatingActionButton: FloatingActionButton(
      onPressed: () {
        //_showDialog(context);
        Navigator.push(context, MaterialPageRoute(builder: (context)=>Levels(
          auth: widget.auth,
          userId: widget.userId,
          onSignedOut: widget.onSignedOut,
        )),);
      },

You can wrap these destination page or route with Scaffold
code snippet

@override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {      
    return Scaffold(
      appBar: AppBar(           
        title: Text(widget.title),
      ),
      body: Center(

class _AppBarBottomSampleState extends State<AppBarBottomSample>
    with SingleTickerProviderStateMixin {
  TabController _tabController;

  @override
  void initState() {

I solved it by removing the Page2 call in TabBarView and directly calling rootpage .

I also face this problem and here's how I solved it.

  • Let's say, on the HomePage we have the TabBarView,
  • And in the TabBarView, we have Tab1, Tab2 and Tab3, which opens Page1, Page2 and Page3.
  • And there is a TextButton on Page1, which opens Page4, after we click on it.

The BuildContext of HomePage build method is not same to the BuildContext of Page1, Page2 and Page3 build method.

class _HomePageState extends State<HomePage> {
   @override
   Widget build(BuildContext context) { //<--I'm talking about this context      
    return Scaffold(
    appBar: AppBar(           
    title: Text(widget.title),
    bottom: TabBar(
    tabs: [Tab1, Tab2, Tab3],),),
    body: TabBarView(
                    children: [ Page1, Page2, Page3,]
                ),


class _Page1State extends State<Page1> {
   @override
   Widget build(BuildContext context) { //<--This is the context that got passed to Navigator.push(context...........   
                                        //Instead we need the context from HomePage, or from framework.dart, to open the new page in fullscreen   
    return Scaffold(
    appBar: AppBar(           
    title: Text(widget.title),),
    body: Center(
                    child: TextButton(child: Text('Go to Page4'), 
                                      onPressed: () {
     //Here, the context is passed from Page1 build 
      Navigator.push(context, MaterialPageRoute(builder: (newContext) => Page4()));
}
       )
                ),

So while calling

Navigator.push(context, MaterialPageRoute(builder: (newContext) => Page4()));

if the context passed is from the Page1 build method, then the new page i.e, Page4 will open only over the Page1, and thus the TabBar at the top will still be visible.

But if the context passed here is from the HomePage build method, or from the framework.dart, then the new Page i.e, Page4 will open in fullscreen.

So to solve this we either need to

  • pass the context from HomePage to Navigator.push....or
  • pass the context from framework.dark, by renaming the BuildContext of Page1 to something else.

Like This: ---

class _Page1State extends State<Page1> {
   @override
   Widget build(BuildContext Page1Context) { //<--We are just renaming it to something else.  
    return Scaffold(
    appBar: AppBar(           
    title: Text(widget.title),),
    body: Center(
                    child: TextButton(child: Text('Go to Page4'), 
                                      onPressed: () {
     //Now, the context passed here is NOT from Page1   
   Navigator.push(context, MaterialPageRoute(builder: (newContext) => Page4()));
}
       )
                ),

In Android Studio, You can press control and click on context in Navigator.push(context...., Then it should open the framework.dart file. It means the context is from framework.dart file.
