InputChip class

A Material Design input chip.

Input chips represent a complex piece of information, such as an entity (person, place, or thing) or conversational text, in a compact form.

Input chips can be made selectable by setting onSelected, deletable by setting onDeleted, and pressable like a button with onPressed. They have a label, and they can have a leading icon (see avatar) and a trailing icon (deleteIcon). Colors and padding can be customized.

Requires one of its ancestors to be a Material widget.

Input chips work together with other UI elements. They can appear:

This example shows how to create InputChips with onSelected and onDeleted callbacks. When the user taps the chip, the chip will be selected. When the user taps the delete icon, the chip will be deleted.

The following example shows how to generate InputChips from user text input. When the user enters a pizza topping in the text field, the user is presented with a list of suggestions. When selecting one of the suggestions, an InputChip is generated in the text field.

Material Design 3

InputChip can be used for Input chips from Material Design 3. If ThemeData.useMaterial3 is true, then InputChip will be styled to match the Material Design 3 specification for Input chips.
