Can we Change the background color on an Image in Flutter? Like in this Image I want to change the pink color background color to something else.
In my case, I was trying to color a Transparent PNG
I tried this solution and it's working.
Using ShaderMask class (https://docs.flutter.io/flutter/widgets/ShaderMask-class.html)
Example:
ShaderMask(
child: Image(
image: AssetImage("assets/cat.png"),
),
shaderCallback: (Rect bounds) {
return LinearGradient(
colors: [Colors.blue, Colors.lightBlue],
stops: [
0.0,
0.5,
],
).createShader(bounds);
},
blendMode: BlendMode.srcATop,
)
I know that's an old question, but for those that came from google.
It's now possible, since flutter 1.9, using the widget ColorFiltered.
body: Center(
child: ColorFiltered(
child:Image.network(
"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2019/12/14/07/21/mountain-4694346_960_720.png",
),
colorFilter: ColorFilter.mode(Colors.red, BlendMode.color),
),

You can't do that with flutter. You need an image editor to change the background color.
If you want to change the background color dynamically you will first have to make the background transparent by adding an alpha channel mask to the image (again using an image editor) You will then be able to define a background color by putting the image inside a widget that has a background color.
Here is a complete example app. The background color changes at random when the widget is reloaded.
import 'dart:math';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
void main() => runApp(MyApp());
class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
Color randomColor() =>
Color((Random().nextDouble() * 0xFFFFFF).toInt() << 0).withOpacity(1.0);
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return MaterialApp(
title: 'MyApp',
home: Center(
child: Container(
decoration: BoxDecoration(
color: randomColor(),
),
child: Image.network(
'https://i.stack.imgur.com/O02Ip.png',
),
),
),
);
}
}
I have come up with this solution. So, you can contain the widget and then decorate the container with a color.
Container(
decoration: BoxDecoration(
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(8),
color: Colors.black,
),
child: ClipRRect(
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(8),
child: Image(
image: AssetImage(imageLink),
),
),
),
You don't need the borderRadius but in my case I used ClipRRect with borderRadius.
I was also trying to add color to a background for a Transparent PNG
This can be done by using a stack widget as below follows:
Stack(
children: <Widget>[
Container(
width: double.infinity,
height: double.infinity,
margin: EdgeInsets.all(50),
color: Colors.blue[500],
),
Image.asset(
'images/frame.png',
fit: BoxFit.fill,
),
],
)
I added a margin so the colored background was only seen inside my photo frame image.
