image file not found in flutter in pubspec.yaml

Viewed 3737

When I try to load image from the assets/images folder, it shows

The asset assets/images/waiting.png does not exist. Try creating the file or fixing the path to the file.

But the file is there. I have checked the directories manually through file explorer too.

flutter:
  uses-material-design: true
  assets:
    - assets/images/waiting.png

I have tried a lot, but it doesn't work. Is that a bug or something? or my code problem?

The issue is because of indentation. Try using a reformat of pubspec file and it will work perfectly.

I solved it by putting two spaces before the word "asserts" and three spaces before the horizontal line and one space after it. In this manner:

If you using Windows instead of macOS, try to use file path with back slashes. For example "assets\fonts\Quicksand-Regular.ttf" instead of "assets/fonts/Quicksand-Regular.ttf"
