Button Widgets (.icon Constructor) ignores foregroundColor from .styleFrom #161467
Closed as not planned
Description
Steps to reproduce
flutter create bug.- Replace the given code below with the contents of
main.dart. - Run the project.
Expected results
The icon color should be what is provided in the foregroundColor property.
Actual results
It is taking default color instead of the provided foregroundColor. Note that text color is working as expected. Issue is only with icons.
I tested this so far on:
| 3.24.5 | 3.27.1 | 3.28.0-2.0.pre.38697 |
