How to Remove space at top and bottom ListTile flutter?

Question

How to remove the space top and bottom from ListTile?

My Code is:

 child: Column(
    children: <Widget>[
      ListTile(
        contentPadding: EdgeInsets.only(left: 0.0, right: 0.0),
        title: Text(
          'Home',
          style: TextStyle(fontSize: 15.0),
        ),
      ),
      ListTile(
        contentPadding: EdgeInsets.only(left: 0.0, right: 0.0),
        title: Text(
          'Audio',
          style:
              TextStyle(fontSize: 15.0, color: Colors.black45),
        ),
      ),),

Answer 1

UPDATE

Now you can also use the following propertier:

1. horizontalTitleGap - Between title and leading
2. minVerticalPadding - Between title and subtitle
3. minLeadingWidth - Minimum width of leading
4. contentPadding - Internal padding

You can use the visualDensity property to reduce the space.

ListTile(
    visualDensity: VisualDensity(horizontal: 0, vertical: -4),
    title: Text("xyz")
);

The visualDensity value can be changed from -4.0 to 4.0. Lower the value, more compact the view.

P.S. This solution is similar to a different question

This question is about the top/bottom spacing. But the other question is about gap between leading and title

Answer 2

In your code put property dense: true inside the list tile

       ListTile(
                dense:true,
                contentPadding: EdgeInsets.only(left: 0.0, right: 0.0),
                title: Text(
                  'Home',
                  style: TextStyle(fontSize: 15.0),
                ),
              ),

Hope it helps!

Answer 3

ListTile(
    dense: true,
    contentPadding: EdgeInsets.symmetric(horizontal: 0.0, vertical: 0.0),
    visualDensity: VisualDensity(horizontal: 0, vertical: -4),
);

Above solution worked for me. I hope, this will also help you. Thanks for asking this question.

Answer 4

That worked for me in ListTile:

visualDensity: VisualDensity(horizontal: 0, vertical: -4)

Answer 5

With ListTile it is not possible. Some modifications are possible with the help of ListTileTheme like color and there is also the option of modifying padding but only work for left and right padding. So better is to create your own custom tile as @santosh showed in his answer. You can also use SizedBox but it can result in tragic output.

Answer 6

Try this

              child: Column(
                children: <Widget>[
                    Text(
                      'Home',
                      style: TextStyle(fontSize: 15.0),
                    ),
                    Text(
                      'Audio',
                      style:
                          TextStyle(fontSize: 15.0, color: Colors.black45),
                    ),
                 ),)

Answer 7

this is worked for me

ListTile(
  dense:true,
  minVerticalPadding: 0,
  contentPadding: EdgeInsets.zero,
  visualDensity: VisualDensity(horizontal: 0, vertical: 4),
        );

now I have no padding at all

Answer 8

ListTile(
  minVerticalPadding: 0, // else 2px still present
  dense: true, // else 2px still present
  visualDensity: VisualDensity.compact, // Else theme will be use
  contentPadding: const EdgeInsets.zero, // Or what do you want, you will have now the exact amount of padding as expected
),

Answer 9

Let's try with shorter way:

ListTile(
          contentPadding: EdgeInsets.zero,
          dense: true,
          title: Text('label'),
        );

Answer 10

ListTile(
  dense: true,
  visualDensity: VisualDensity(horizontal: 0, vertical: -4),
  contentPadding: EdgeInsets.only(left: 0.0,right: 0.0, top: 0.0),
  title:  LabelText(
    labelText: "Cara",
    fontSize: 14,
    fontWeight: FontWeight.w600,
    color: AppColor.txtColor,
    textAlign: TextAlign.center
  ),
  subtitle:  LabelText(
    labelText: "Patient #1",
    fontSize: 12,
    fontWeight: FontWeight.normal,
    color: AppColor.inactive,
    textAlign: TextAlign.center
  ),
),

Answer 11

For me Padding widget worked in place of ListTile.padding variable can be updated as per your requirements for a ListItem.

Padding(
        padding: const EdgeInsets.only(left : 8.0 , right 8.0),
        child: Text("List Item Text",
            style: Theme.of(context).textTheme.body1))

Answer 12

I have tried one by one and with all possible combinations using the four easily possible ways, these are using:

• contentPadding: EdgeInsets.zero
• visualDensity: VisualDensity.compact
• minVerticalPadding: 0
• dense: true

I came to the conclusion that the only thing that should be used if you want to make a ListTile as small vertically as possible, is just using visualDensity in this way.

ListTile(
  visualDensity: const VisualDensity(horizontal: 0, vertical: -4),
  ...
)

Answer 13

None of the solutions above will work (for now). Your best bet is to use a TextButton and include a Row as the child
