Transparent NavBar with persistent_bottom_nav_bar

Question

I am using persistent_bottom_nav_bar package:

https://pub.dev/packages/persistent_bottom_nav_bar

which does exactly what I want, except it is missing an important Scaffold function:

extendBody: true

The package tells me the following:

NOTE: This widget includes SCAFFOLD (based on CupertinoTabScaffold), so no need to declare it.

I am looking for a solution to be able have extendedBody: true while using this package

Answer 1

What you can do is modify the package, and add this property to the built-in scaffold.

1- Go to the package directory, example:

C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\Pub\Cache\hosted\pub.dartlang.org\PackageFolderName

2- Copy the Package to your project (the whole PackageFolderName, and paste at same level with pubspec.yaml )

3- Modify the Package's code, i.e. find the Scaffold and add the property

4- Modify your Project's pubspec.yaml and change the path of the package to

Package Name: 
  path: ./PackageFolderName/

5- Save your pubspec.yaml
