how to return the buttonbar and Scaffold at the same time

[kcwu229]

In Flutter, you can't directly return both a Scaffold and a ButtonBar at the same time, as the Scaffold is the top-level widget that should contain all the other widgets in your app's UI.

However, you can achieve the desired result by nesting the ButtonBar within the Scaffold. Here's an example:

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

void main() {
  runApp(MyApp());
}

class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return MaterialApp(
      title: 'My App',
      home: MyHomePage(),
    );
  }
}

class MyHomePage extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      appBar: AppBar(
        title: Text('My Home Page'),
      ),
      body: Center(
        child: Text('Hello, World!'),
      ),
      bottomNavigationBar: BottomAppBar(
        child: ButtonBar(
          children: [
            ElevatedButton(
              onPressed: () {
                // Perform button action
              },
              child: Text('Button 1'),
            ),
            ElevatedButton(
              onPressed: () {
                // Perform button action
              },
              child: Text('Button 2'),
            ),
            ElevatedButton(
              onPressed: () {
                // Perform button action
              },
              child: Text('Button 3'),
            ),
          ],
        ),
      ),
    );
  }
}

In this example, we've placed the ButtonBar inside the BottomAppBar of the Scaffold. This will display the ButtonBar at the bottom of the screen, below the main content of the Scaffold.

Alternatively, you can also place the ButtonBar inside the body of the Scaffold, if you want it to be part of the main content area:

Scaffold(
  appBar: AppBar(
    title: Text('My Home Page'),
  ),
  body: Column(
    mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.spaceBetween,
    children: [
      Center(
        child: Text('Hello, World!'),
      ),
      ButtonBar(
        children: [
          ElevatedButton(
            onPressed: () {
              // Perform button action
            },
            child: Text('Button 1'),
          ),
          // Add more buttons as needed
        ],
      ),
    ],
  ),
);

In this example, we've placed the ButtonBar at the bottom of the Scaffold's body, using a Column to vertically stack the content and the ButtonBar.

The key point is that the Scaffold should always be the top-level widget, and you can then nest other widgets like ButtonBar inside it to achieve the desired layout and functionality.
