Allow access to MaterialStatesController in TextField and TextFormField #133273
Description
Is there an existing issue for this?
- I have searched the existing issues
- I have read the guide to filing a bug
Use case
Currently there is no way to determine if a TextFormField is currently in an errored state, as in, it's showing an error message and using errorBorder. It's possible to determine whether it's focused, but only if we supply our own FocusNode. My specific use case
is displaying different colors and shadow on other UI elements, specifically on text and wrapper containers depending on the TextField's MaterialState.
Proposal
My proposal would be to allow us to supply our own MaterialStatesController (Similarly to ElevatedButton) so that we have full access to information regarding those Widgets' states.
