Responsive toolbar layout

[jacquetc]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Take your example app, resize it to be smaller than the width of the toolbar. Right-most buttons are hidden.

Describe the solution you'd like See below, I prefer the first solution.

Describe alternatives you've considered Different solutions:

• when the container width is smaller than the toolbar width, one drop down menu appears at the right to hold hidden buttons.
• the buttons can flow below, like in a second, third toolbar
• enable horizontal scrolling with ScrollView and arrows left and right to scroll manually for non-touch devices. I think this would be the solution adopted by the developer choosing Fleather since you can wrap the Toolbar without touching its internal.

To be honest, it would be nice if there was a layout property and its choices were: scroll, wrap, moreMenu, etc...

Since I stared my Flutter app a little over a year ago and learning along the way, I am learning to be adaptive and creative in ways I was never forced before while programming in Windows for 30+ years.

Flutter's cross-platform ability is very unrestrictive and thinking outside the box as opposed to being constrained by it like a lot of other frameworks is refreshing.

So allowing more options would be better.

Thanks for everyone's work!

All the best,

Hello,

I'm not a developer of Feather, just a curious tourist doing sand castles, so the following is only my opinion:

As a developer yourself, you already understand that the multiplicity of options impacts the maintainability.

I think that the developers times can be better used to missing core components before creating a more complex front-end. Also, at this stage of development of Fleather, front end can be easily impacted by profound changes in the back-end.

I'm not saying here to not do something. I personally like your idea of options. There is already a FleatherToolbar.basic() factory, there can be others like FleatherToolbar.scroll(), etc...

Actually, you made me thinking on the problem and I see different avenues to choose:

• Minimal maintenance: offer only the button widgets corresponding to each function. No toolbar, let the developer using Fleather bake whatever toolbar he wants.
• Widgets + basic toolbar with one basic responsive design. If a developer isn't happy with stock toolbar, he can bake its own with the offered widgets.
• Higher-level, higher-maintenance toolbars. Several toolbar styles as discussed before.

What do you think ?
