How to make Scrollable text in flutter?

I have an image at the top of a Column widget after that there is heading which is Text widget and after that, there is one more Text widget which contains some description and that exceeds the screen and gives an error of rendering.

So I want to make that text view scrollable, so that it should be visible completely and scrollable too. And its size must be dynamic as the Data coming from API. I tried few of the approaches but unable to make it done. Here is the screenshot

Screenshot:

@override


 Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    var size = MediaQuery
        .of(context)
        .size;
    final double itemHeight = (size.height - kToolbarHeight - 24) / 2;
    final double itemWidth = size.width;


return new Container(
  child: new Column(
    crossAxisAlignment: CrossAxisAlignment.start,
    children: <Widget>[
      new Padding(
        padding: const EdgeInsets.fromLTRB(0.0, 24.0, 0.0, 0.0),
        child: new Image.asset(
          'assets/img/noconnection.png',
          height: 200.0,
          width: itemWidth,
        ),
      ),
      new Padding(
        padding: const EdgeInsets.all(12.0),
        child: new Text(
          "Some Heading Text",
          style: new TextStyle(
              fontSize: 28.0,
              color: Colors.black87,
              fontWeight: FontWeight.w600),
        ),
      ),
      new SingleChildScrollView(
        child: new Text(
          "Description that is too long in text format(Here Data is coming from API)",
          style: new TextStyle(
            fontSize: 16.0, color: Colors.black87,
          ),
        ),
      ),
    ],
  ),
);

}

Solution

You need to wrap your SingleChildScrollView in an Expanded widget and you will get what you are looking for.

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

void main() => runApp(new MyApp());

class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return new MaterialApp(
      title: 'Flutter Demo',
      theme: new ThemeData(
        primarySwatch: Colors.blue,
      ),
      home: new MyHomePage(),
    );
  }
}

class MyHomePage extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    var size = MediaQuery
        .of(context)
        .size;
    final double itemHeight = (size.height - kToolbarHeight - 24) / 2;
    final double itemWidth = size.width;

    return new Container(
      child: new Column(
        crossAxisAlignment: CrossAxisAlignment.start,
        children: <Widget>[
          new Padding(
            padding: const EdgeInsets.fromLTRB(0.0, 24.0, 0.0, 0.0),
            child: new Image.asset(
              'assets/rp1.jpg',
              height: 200.0,
              width: itemWidth,
            ),
          ),
          new Padding(
            padding: const EdgeInsets.all(12.0),
            child: new Text(
              "Some Heading Text",
              style: new TextStyle(
                  fontSize: 28.0,
                  color: Colors.white,
                  fontWeight: FontWeight.w600),
            ),
          ),
          new Expanded(
            flex: 1,
            child: new SingleChildScrollView(
              scrollDirection: Axis.vertical,//.horizontal
              child: new Text(
                "1 Description that is too long in text format(Here Data is coming from API) jdlksaf j klkjjflkdsjfkddfdfsdfds " + 
                "2 Description that is too long in text format(Here Data is coming from API) d fsdfdsfsdfd dfdsfdsf sdfdsfsd d " +

                "10 Description that is too long in text format(Here Data is coming from API)",     
                style: new TextStyle(
                  fontSize: 16.0, color: Colors.white,
                ),
              ),
            ),
          ),
        ],
      ),
    );
  }
}
