The persistent bottom sheet to show information that supplements the primary content of the Pagelet.

col #

col: ResponsiveNumber = 12

If a parent of this control is a [ResponsiveRow][flet.], this property is used to determine how many virtual columns of a screen this control will span.

Can be a number or a dictionary configured to have a different value for specific breakpoints, for example col={"sm": 6}.

This control spans the 12 virtual columns by default.

Dimensions
Breakpoint Dimension

The control in the content of the Pagelet is positioned at the top-left of the available space between the app bar and the bottom of the Pagelet.

data #

data: Any = skip_field()

Arbitrary data of any type.

disabled #

disabled: bool = False

Every control has disabled property which is False by default - control and all its children are enabled.

Note

The value of this property will be propagated down to all children controls recursively.

Example

For example, if you have a form with multiple entry controls you can disable them all together by disabling container:

ft.Column(
    disabled = True,
    controls=[
        ft.TextField(),
        ft.TextField()

Has effect only if the direct parent of this control is one of the following controls, or their subclasses: [Column][flet.], [Row][flet.], [View][flet.], [Page][flet.].

expand_loose #

expand_loose: bool = False

Allows the control to expand along the main axis if space is available, but does not require it to fill all available space.

More information here.

Note

If expand_loose is True, it will have effect only if:

  • expand is not None and
  • the direct parent of this control is one of the following controls, or their subclasses: [Column][flet.], [Row][flet.], [View][flet.], [Page][flet.].

floating_action_button #

Defines a position for the FloatingActionButton.

height #

height: Number | None = None

Imposed Control height in virtual pixels.

key #

key: KeyValue | None = None

left #

left: Number | None = None

The distance that the child's left edge is inset from the left of the stack.

Note

Effective only if this control is a descendant of one of the following: [Stack][flet.] control, [Page.overlay][flet.] list.

margin #

Sets the margin of the control.

navigation_bar #

navigation_bar: (
    NavigationBar | CupertinoNavigationBar | None
) = None

A navigation bar (NavigationBar or CupertinoNavigationBar) control to display at the bottom of the Pagelet.

Note

If both the navigation_bar and bottom_appbar properties are specified, navigation_bar takes precedence and will be displayed.

offset #

offset: OffsetValue | None = None

Applies a translation transformation before painting the control.

The translation is expressed as an Offset scaled to the control's size. So, Offset(x=0.25, y=0), for example, will result in a horizontal translation of one quarter the width of this control.

Example

The following example displays container at 0, 0 top left corner of a stack as transform applies -1 * 100, -1 * 100 (offset * control's size) horizontal and vertical translations to the control:

import flet as ft

def main(page: ft.Page):
    page.add(
        ft.Stack(
            width=1000,
            height=1000,
            controls=[
                ft.Container(
                    bgcolor="red",
                    width=100,
                    height=100,
                    left=100,
                    top=100,
                    offset=ft.Offset(-1, -1),
                )
            ],
        )
    )

ft.run(main)

on_animation_end #

on_animation_end: (
    ControlEventHandler[LayoutControl] | None
) = None

Called when animation completes.

Can be used to chain multiple animations.

The data property of the event handler argument contains the name of the animation.

More information here.

opacity #

opacity: Number = 1.0

Defines the transparency of the control.

Value ranges from 0.0 (completely transparent) to 1.0 (completely opaque without any transparency).

page #

page: Page | BasePage | None

The page to which this control belongs to.

parent #

parent: BaseControl | None

The direct ancestor(parent) of this control.

It defaults to None and will only have a value when this control is mounted (added to the page tree).

The Page control (which is the root of the tree) is an exception - it always has parent=None.

right #

right: Number | None = None

The distance that the child's right edge is inset from the right of the stack.

Note

Effective only if this control is a descendant of one of the following: [Stack][flet.] control, [Page.overlay][flet.] list.

rotate #

rotate: RotateValue | None = None

Transforms this control using a rotation around its center.

The value of rotate property could be one of the following types:

  • number - a rotation in clockwise radians. Full circle 360° is math.pi * 2 radians, 90° is pi / 2, 45° is pi / 4, etc.
  • Rotate - allows to specify rotation angle as well as alignment - the location of rotation center.
Example

For example: 

ft.Image(
    src="https://picsum.photos/100/100",
    width=100,
    height=100,
    border_radius=5,
    rotate=Rotate(angle=0.25 * pi, alignment=ft.Alignment.CENTER_LEFT)
)

rtl #

rtl: bool = False

Whether the text direction of the control should be right-to-left (RTL).

scale #

scale: ScaleValue | None = None

Scales this control along the 2D plane. Default scale factor is 1.0, meaning no-scale.

Setting this property to 0.5, for example, makes this control twice smaller, while 2.0 makes it twice larger.

Different scale multipliers can be specified for x and y axis, by setting Control.scale property to an instance of Scale class. Either scale or scale_x and scale_y could be specified, but not all of them.

Example 
ft.Image(
    src="https://picsum.photos/100/100",
    width=100,
    height=100,
    border_radius=5,
    scale=ft.Scale(scale_x=2, scale_y=0.5)
)

tooltip #

tooltip: TooltipValue | None = None

The tooltip ot show when this control is hovered over.

top #

The distance that the child's top edge is inset from the top of the stack.

Note

Effective only if this control is a descendant of one of the following: [Stack][flet.] control, [Page.overlay][flet.] list.

visible #

visible: bool = True

Every control has visible property which is True by default - control is rendered on the page. Setting visible to False completely prevents control (and all its children if any) from rendering on a page canvas. Hidden controls cannot be focused or selected with a keyboard or mouse and they do not emit any events.

width #

width: Number | None = None

Imposed Control width in virtual pixels.

before_event #
