In Flutter, you can retrieve the status bar height using the MediaQuery class. The steps are as follows:
- First, ensure your widget has access to the
BuildContext. - Use
MediaQuery.of(context)to obtain the currentMediaQueryData. - From the
MediaQueryData, access the status bar height via thepadding.topproperty.
Here is an example:
dartimport 'package:flutter/material.dart'; class MyWidget extends StatelessWidget { Widget build(BuildContext context) { double statusBarHeight = MediaQuery.of(context).padding.top; return Scaffold( appBar: AppBar(title: Text("Status Bar Height")), body: Center( child: Text("Status bar height is: $statusBarHeight pixels"), ), ); } }
In this example, we first retrieve the status bar height using MediaQuery.of(context).padding.top and display it on the screen. This method works consistently across different devices and platforms, including iOS and Android.
