TimestampedChatMessage class

Internal widget that paints a chat message with its timestamp, "Edited" label and status icon inline on the last text line when they fit, falling back to a new right-aligned row below when they don't.

This is the WhatsApp / iMessage / Signal layout pattern. It is used internally by every text bubble in the package; consumers don't instantiate it directly.

Methods

createElement() → LeafRenderObjectElement
RenderObjectWidgets always inflate to a RenderObjectElement subclass.
inherited
createRenderObject(BuildContext context) → RenderObject
Creates an instance of the RenderObject class that this RenderObjectWidget represents, using the configuration described by this RenderObjectWidget.
override
debugDescribeChildren() → List<DiagnosticsNode>
Returns a list of DiagnosticsNode objects describing this node's children.
inherited
debugFillProperties(DiagnosticPropertiesBuilder properties) → void
Add additional properties associated with the node.
inherited
didUnmountRenderObject(covariant RenderObject renderObject) → void
This method is called when a RenderObject that was previously associated with this widget is removed from the render tree. The provided RenderObject will be of the same type as the one created by this widget's createRenderObject method.
inherited
noSuchMethod(Invocation invocation) → dynamic

toStringDeep({String prefixLineOne = '', String? prefixOtherLines, DiagnosticLevel minLevel = DiagnosticLevel.debug, int wrapWidth = 65}) → String
Returns a string representation of this node and its descendants.
inherited
toStringShallow({String joiner = ', ', DiagnosticLevel minLevel = DiagnosticLevel.debug}) → String
Returns a one-line detailed description of the object.
inherited
toStringShort() → String
A short, textual description of this widget.
inherited
updateRenderObject(BuildContext context, covariant RenderObject renderObject) → void
