How to hide keyboard when clicked on any gestureDetector on screen?

I have a screen with multiple widgets. Some of them are clickable. There is one textInput widget that opens a keyboard when clicked on it. I want to hide it whenever clicked anywhere outside it. But if i click on any GestureDetector outside keyboard, then it handles that action with keyboard open. I want to simply close it first.

I tried wrapping my whole screen in a gestureDetector and use focusNode.unfocus() in its onTap, but it didn't work

Solution

  • Wrap with following code:

    GestureDetector(
             onTap: () {
              /* Hide Keyboard */
             FocusManager.instance.primaryFocus?.unfocus();
       },
)
