body: ListView(
              children: <Widget>[
                Column(
                  crossAxisAlignment: CrossAxisAlignment.start,
                  children: <Widget>[
                    SizedBox(height: 10.0),
                    new Container(
                      margin: EdgeInsets.only(left: 10.0,right: 10.0),
                      height: 40.0, width: double.infinity,
                      decoration: BoxDecoration(

Answer 3

This might not be the cleanest way to do this, but I’m relatively new to flutter so it’s the best I can do.

First I created a master container to pass all the info through so I can keep all relative code in their respected places, this piece allows me to show both listViews in the same container

This is one of the containers that’s passed to _positonalArguments. This lets me keep the elements from overflowing, for instance the maxHeight: 335.0, is a strict parameter found due to trial and error.

I used the same BoxConstraints in both containers passed to _positionalArguments, along with the same margin values.

Sorry I’m using images instead of pasting code, I’m using stack on my phone to answer this.
