I'm currently developing an Android app in Flutter. How can I add a rounded button?
40 Answers
1. Solution Summary
FlatButton
and RaisedButton
are deprecated.
So, you can use shape
which placed in the style
property, for TextButton
and ElevatedButton
.
There are some changes since Flutter 2.0:
style
: the property type has changed toButtonStyle
shape
: the property type has changed toMaterialStateProperty<T>
2. Rounded Button
Inside the style
property exists the shape
property:
style: ButtonStyle(
shape: MaterialStateProperty.all<RoundedRectangleBorder>(
RoundedRectangleBorder(
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(18.0),
side: BorderSide(color: Colors.red)
)
)
)
Square Button
For a square button you can use ElevatedButton
or otherwise add:
style: ButtonStyle(
shape: MaterialStateProperty.all<RoundedRectangleBorder>(
RoundedRectangleBorder(
borderRadius: BorderRadius.zero,
side: BorderSide(color: Colors.red)
)
)
)
Complete Example
Row(
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.end,
children: [
TextButton(
child: Text(
"Add to cart".toUpperCase(),
style: TextStyle(fontSize: 14)
),
style: ButtonStyle(
padding: MaterialStateProperty.all<EdgeInsets>(EdgeInsets.all(15)),
foregroundColor: MaterialStateProperty.all<Color>(Colors.red),
shape: MaterialStateProperty.all<RoundedRectangleBorder>(
RoundedRectangleBorder(
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(18.0),
side: BorderSide(color: Colors.red)
)
)
),
onPressed: () => null
),
SizedBox(width: 10),
ElevatedButton(
child: Text(
"Buy now".toUpperCase(),
style: TextStyle(fontSize: 14)
),
style: ButtonStyle(
foregroundColor: MaterialStateProperty.all<Color>(Colors.white),
backgroundColor: MaterialStateProperty.all<Color>(Colors.red),
shape: MaterialStateProperty.all<RoundedRectangleBorder>(
RoundedRectangleBorder(
borderRadius: BorderRadius.zero,
side: BorderSide(color: Colors.red)
)
)
),
onPressed: () => null
)
]
)

4This code works, but can't we remove the
shape: MaterialStateProperty.all<RoundedRectangleBorder>(...)
portion and just directly assign aRoundedRectangleBorder(...)
to theshape
property? Jun 11, 2021 at 3:04 -
4@fpsColton Sure, in fact I can't even have it to work via
MaterialStateProperty
, only usingRoundedRectangleBorder(...)
. I am getting error otherwise, which looks like this:The argument type 'MaterialStateProperty<RoundedRectangleBorder>' can't be assigned to the parameter type 'OutlinedBorder?'.

Update
Since the left-sided buttons are now deprecated, use the right-sided ones.
Deprecated --> Recommended
RaisedButton --> ElevatedButton
OutlineButton --> OutlinedButton
FlatButton --> TextButton
ElevatedButton
Using
StadiumBorder
ElevatedButton( onPressed: () {}, child: Text('Button'), style: ElevatedButton.styleFrom(shape: StadiumBorder()), )
Using
RoundedRectangleBorder
ElevatedButton( onPressed: () {}, child: Text('Button'), style: ElevatedButton.styleFrom( shape: RoundedRectangleBorder( borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(12), // <-- Radius ), ), )
Using
CircleBorder
ElevatedButton( onPressed: () {}, child: Text('Button'), style: ElevatedButton.styleFrom( shape: CircleBorder(), padding: EdgeInsets.all(24), ), )
Using
BeveledRectangleBorder
ElevatedButton( onPressed: () {}, child: Text('Button'), style: ElevatedButton.styleFrom( shape: BeveledRectangleBorder( borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(12) ), ), )
OutlinedButton
Using
StadiumBorder
OutlinedButton( onPressed: () {}, child: Text('Button'), style: OutlinedButton.styleFrom( shape: StadiumBorder(), ), )
Using
RoundedRectangleBorder
OutlinedButton( onPressed: () {}, child: Text('Button'), style: OutlinedButton.styleFrom( shape: RoundedRectangleBorder( borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(12), ), ), )
Using
CircleBorder
:OutlinedButton( onPressed: () {}, child: Text('Button'), style: OutlinedButton.styleFrom( shape: CircleBorder(), padding: EdgeInsets.all(24), ), )
Using
BeveledRectangleBorder
OutlinedButton( onPressed: () {}, child: Text('Button'), style: OutlinedButton.styleFrom( shape: BeveledRectangleBorder( borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(12), ), ), )
TextButton
TextButton
also works similar to ElevatedButton
and OutlinedButton
, however, you can only see the shapes when the button is pressed.
You can use the ElevatedButton
Widget. The elevated button widget has a shape
property which you can use as shown in the below snippet.
ElevatedButton(
style: ButtonStyle(
shape: MaterialStateProperty.all<RoundedRectangleBorder>(
RoundedRectangleBorder(
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(18.0),
side: BorderSide(
color: Colors.teal,
width: 2.0,
),
),
),
),
child: Text('Submit'),
onPressed: () {},
),

2RaisedButton is deprecated and no longer used. Use Elevated button with ButtonStyle as suggested by Peter May 31, 2021 at 16:24
Since September 2020, Flutter 1.22.0:
Both "RaisedButton" and "FlatButton" are deprecated.
The most up-to-date solution is to use new buttons:
1. ElevatedButton
:
Code:
ElevatedButton(
child: Text("ElevatedButton"),
onPressed: () => print("it's pressed"),
style: ElevatedButton.styleFrom(
primary: Colors.red,
onPrimary: Colors.white,
shape: RoundedRectangleBorder(
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(32.0),
),
),
)
Don't forget, there's also an .icon
constructor to add an icon easily:
ElevatedButton.icon(
icon: Icon(Icons.thumb_up),
label: Text("Like"),
onPressed: () => print("it's pressed"),
style: ElevatedButton.styleFrom(
shape: RoundedRectangleBorder(
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(32.0),
),
),
)
2. OutlinedButton
:
Code:
OutlinedButton.icon(
icon: Icon(Icons.star_outline),
label: Text("OutlinedButton"),
onPressed: () => print("it's pressed"),
style: ElevatedButton.styleFrom(
side: BorderSide(width: 2.0, color: Colors.blue),
shape: RoundedRectangleBorder(
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(32.0),
),
),
)
3. TextButton
:
You can always use TextButton
if you don't want an outline or color fill.
You can simply use RaisedButton
Padding(
padding: EdgeInsets.only(left: 150.0, right: 0.0),
child: RaisedButton(
textColor: Colors.white,
color: Colors.black,
child: Text("Search"),
onPressed: () {},
shape: new RoundedRectangleBorder(
borderRadius: new BorderRadius.circular(30.0),
),
),
)
Output:

2'RaisedButton' is deprecated and shouldn't be used. Use ElevatedButton instead. See the migration guide in flutter.dev/go/material-button-migration-guide). This feature was deprecated after v1.26.0-18.0.pre.– M KarimiMay 10, 2022 at 10:21
You can simply use RaisedButton
or you can use InkWell
to get a custom button and also properties like onDoubleTap
, onLongPress
, etc.:
new InkWell(
onTap: () => print('hello'),
child: new Container(
//width: 100.0,
height: 50.0,
decoration: new BoxDecoration(
color: Colors.blueAccent,
border: new Border.all(color: Colors.white, width: 2.0),
borderRadius: new BorderRadius.circular(10.0),
),
child: new Center(child: new Text('Click Me', style: new TextStyle(fontSize: 18.0, color: Colors.white),),),
),
),
If you want to use the splashColor
and highlightColor
properties in the InkWell
widget, use the Material
widget as the parent of the InkWell
widget instead of decorating the container (deleting the decoration property). Read about why here.
-
4If you want the
InkWell
to clip to the rounded corners then you need to addborderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(10.0)
to theInkWell
widget also otherwise it will go to the edges of the bounding rectangle. Jun 1, 2019 at 20:36 -
1@VictorRendina I was searching for a way to make the ripples rounded, thanks for ur comment. add this as a sperate answer to inkwell questions as many aren't mentioning this. Jun 22, 2019 at 19:56
Different ways to create a rounded button are as follows:
ElevatedButton with ElevatedButton.styleFrom
ElevatedButton(
style: ElevatedButton.styleFrom(
shape: RoundedRectangleBorder(
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(30.0),
),
),
onPressed: () {},
child:
Text("Buy now".toUpperCase(), style: TextStyle(fontSize: 14)),
),
ElevatedButton with ButtonStyle
ElevatedButton(
style: ButtonStyle(
shape: MaterialStateProperty.all<RoundedRectangleBorder>(
RoundedRectangleBorder(
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(50.0),
))),
onPressed: () {},
child: Text("Submit".toUpperCase()),
),
A practical demonstration of a round button can be found in the below Dartpad link:
Rounded Button Demo Examples on DartPad
In the new update flutter 3.0
flutter uses Material 3
guidelines
According to which the default border of buttons are rounded
Default Button
ElevatedButton(
onPressed: () {}, child: const Text("Default Button ")),
Button with Border Radius Zero
ElevatedButton(
style: ElevatedButton.styleFrom(
shape: const RoundedRectangleBorder(
borderRadius: BorderRadius.zero)),
onPressed: () {},
child: const Text("Border Radius Zero ")),
Button with custom border radius
ElevatedButton(
style: ElevatedButton.styleFrom(
shape: RoundedRectangleBorder(
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(50))),
onPressed: () {},
child: const Text("Border Radius Custom ")),
Note: You can use the same logic for FilledButton
, TextButton
and the like.
Refer https://m3.material.io/components/all-buttons for button style.
You can use the below code to make a rounded button with a gradient color.
Container(
width: 130.0,
height: 43.0,
decoration: BoxDecoration(
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(30.0),
gradient: LinearGradient(
// Where the linear gradient begins and ends
begin: Alignment.topRight,
end: Alignment.bottomLeft,
// Add one stop for each color. Stops should increase from 0 to 1
stops: [0.1, 0.9],
colors: [
// Colors are easy thanks to Flutter's Colors class.
Color(0xff1d83ab),
Color(0xff0cbab8),
],
),
),
child: FlatButton(
child: Text(
'Sign In',
style: TextStyle(
fontSize: 16.0,
fontFamily: 'Righteous',
fontWeight: FontWeight.w600,
),
),
textColor: Colors.white,
color: Colors.transparent,
shape:
RoundedRectangleBorder(borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(30.0)),
onPressed: () {
},
),
);
Use TextButton instead.
Buttons like the FlatButton, RaisedButton and OutlineButton has been said to be deprecated since October 2020. This is one of the Flutter development team's effort to simplify and make the Flutter API consistent, you can customize its style by using style property.
TextButton(
child: Padding(
padding: const EdgeInsets.only(left: 10.0, right: 10.0),
child: Text('Text here',
style: TextStyle(
color: Colors.teal,
fontSize: 14,
fontWeight: FontWeight.w500)),
),
style: TextButton.styleFrom(
primary: Colors.teal,
onSurface: Colors.yellow,
side: BorderSide(color: Colors.teal, width: 2),
shape: const RoundedRectangleBorder(
borderRadius: BorderRadius.all(Radius.circular(25))),
),
onPressed: () {
print('Pressed');
},
),
To use any shape in your button, make sure you perform all the code inside the Button widget:
**shape: RoundedRectangleBorder(
borderRadius: new BorderRadius.circular(18.0),
side: BorderSide(color: Colors.red) ),**
If you want make it is square, use BorderRadius.circular(0.0)
It automatically makes it into a square.
The button is like this:
Here is the all source code for the give UI screen:
Scaffold(
backgroundColor: Color(0xFF8E44AD),
body: new Center(
child: Column(
children: <Widget>[
Container(
margin: EdgeInsets.fromLTRB(90, 10, 20, 0),
padding: new EdgeInsets.only(top: 92.0),
child: Text(
"Currency Converter",
style: TextStyle(
fontSize: 48,
fontWeight: FontWeight.bold,
color: Colors.white,
),
),
),
Container(
margin: EdgeInsets.only(),
padding: EdgeInsets.all(25),
child: TextFormField(
decoration: new InputDecoration(
filled: true,
fillColor: Colors.white,
labelText: "Amount",
border: OutlineInputBorder(
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(10),
),
),
),
),
Container(
padding: EdgeInsets.all(25),
child: TextFormField(
decoration: new InputDecoration(
filled: true,
fillColor: Colors.white,
labelText: "From",
border: OutlineInputBorder(
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(10),
),
),
),
),
Container(
padding: EdgeInsets.all(25),
child: TextFormField(
decoration: new InputDecoration(
filled: true,
fillColor: Colors.white,
labelText: "To",
border: OutlineInputBorder(
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(10),
)),
),
),
SizedBox(height: 20.0),
MaterialButton(
height: 58,
minWidth: 340,
shape: RoundedRectangleBorder(
borderRadius: new BorderRadius.circular(12)),
onPressed: () {},
child: Text(
"CONVERT",
style: TextStyle(
fontSize: 24,
color: Colors.black,
),
),
color: Color(0xFFF7CA18),
),
],
),
),
),
);
you can use this code:
ElevatedButton(
onPressed: () {},
style: ElevatedButton.styleFrom(
shape: RoundedRectangleBorder(
borderRadius: BorderRadius.all(Radius.circular(borderRadius))),
),
child: Text("ok"),
)
You can use this code for a transparent rounded button by passing a transparent color to the color property inside BoxDecoration
.
eg. color: Colors.transparent
.
Also, take note that this button makes use of only the Container
and GestureDetector
widgets.
Container(
height: 50.0,
child: GestureDetector(
onTap: () {},
child: Container(
decoration: BoxDecoration(
border: Border.all(
color: Color(0xFFF05A22),
style: BorderStyle.solid,
width: 1.0,
),
color: Colors.transparent,
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(30.0),
),
child: Row(
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
children: <Widget>[
Center(
child: Text(
"BUTTON",
style: TextStyle(
color: Color(0xFFF05A22),
fontFamily: 'Montserrat',
fontSize: 16,
fontWeight: FontWeight.w600,
letterSpacing: 1,
),
),
)
],
),
),
),
)
If anybody is looking for complete circular button then I achieved it this way:
Center(
child: SizedBox.fromSize(
size: Size(80, 80), // Button width and height
child: ClipOval(
child: Material(
color: Colors.pink[300], // Button color
child: InkWell(
splashColor: Colors.yellow, // splash color
onTap: () {}, // Button pressed
child: Column(
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
children: <Widget>[
Icon(Icons.linked_camera), // Icon
Text("Picture"), // Text
],
),
),
),
),
),
)
You can also use ButtonTheme()
:
Here is example code -
ButtonTheme(
minWidth: 200.0,
shape: RoundedRectangleBorder(
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(18.0),
side: BorderSide(color: Colors.green)),
child: RaisedButton(
elevation: 5.0,
hoverColor: Colors.green,
color: Colors.amber,
child: Text(
"Place Order",
style: TextStyle(
color: Colors.white, fontWeight: FontWeight.bold),
),
onPressed: () {},
),
),
RaisedButton(
child: Text("Button"),
onPressed: (){},
shape: RoundedRectangleBorder(borderRadius: new BorderRadius.circular(30.0),
side: BorderSide(color: Colors.red))
)

One of the simplest ways to create a rounded button is to use a FlatButton
and then specify the roundness by setting its shape
property. Follow the code below
FlatButton(
padding: EdgeInsets.all(30.0),
color: Colors.black,
shape: RoundedRectangleBorder(
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(20.0)),
child: child: Text(
"Button",
style: TextStyle(color: Colors.white),
),
onPressed: () {
print('Button pressed');
},
),
Note: In order to change the roundness adjust the value inside
BorderRadius.circular()
Here is the code for your problem. You just have to take a simple container with a border radius in boxdecoration.
new Container(
alignment: Alignment.center,
decoration: BoxDecoration(
borderRadius: BorderRadius.all(Radius.circular(15.0)),
color: Colors.blue,
),
child: Row(
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
children: <Widget>[
Padding(
padding: const EdgeInsets.all(10.0),
child: new Text(
"Next",
style: new TextStyle(
fontWeight: FontWeight.w500,
color: Colors.white,
fontSize: 15.0,
),
),
),
],
),
),
After the Null safety, use ElevatedButton not RaisedButton because RaisedButton is depreciated as the docs says.
child: ElevatedButton(
onPressed: () {},
child: const Text('Add item to the list'),
style: ButtonStyle(
backgroundColor:
MaterialStateProperty.all<Color>(Common.buttonColor),
shape: MaterialStateProperty.all<RoundedRectangleBorder>(
RoundedRectangleBorder(
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(18.0),
),
),
),
),
If you want to Use MaterialButton
then,
You can add RoundedRectangleBorder
Given in Shape
Like this,
MaterialButton(
onPressed: () {},
minWidth: MediaQuery.of(context).size.width * 0.4,
height: 34,
color: colorWhite,
highlightColor: colorSplash,
splashColor: colorSplash,
visualDensity: VisualDensity.compact,
shape: RoundedRectangleBorder(
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(4),
side: BorderSide(
color: colorGrey,
width: 0.6,
),
),
child: Text("CANCEL"),
),
Now we have an Icon button to achieve a rounded button click and overlay. However, the background color is not yet available, but the same can be achieved by the Circle avatar widget as follows:
CircleAvatar(
backgroundColor: const Color(0xffF4F3FA),
child: IconButton(
onPressed: () => FlushbarHelper.createInformation(
message: 'Work in progress...')
.show(context),
icon: Icon(Icons.more_vert),
),
),
You can create a custom view and put it inside a GestureDetector for it to behave like a button. The benefit is that you can provide endless types of custom decoration (including making it round with specified radius) to the container.
Here is another solution:
Container(
height: MediaQuery.of(context).size.height * 0.10,
width: MediaQuery.of(context).size.width,
child: ButtonTheme(
minWidth: MediaQuery.of(context).size.width * 0.75,
child: RaisedButton(
shape: RoundedRectangleBorder(
borderRadius: new BorderRadius.circular(25.0),
side: BorderSide(color: Colors.blue)),
onPressed: () async {
// Do something
},
color: Colors.red[900],
textColor: Colors.white,
child: Padding(
padding: const EdgeInsets.all(8.0),
child: Text("Button Text,
style: TextStyle(fontSize: 24)),
),
),
),
),
New Elevate Button
Style
customElevatedButton({radius, color}) => ElevatedButton.styleFrom(
shape: RoundedRectangleBorder(
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(radius == null ? 100 : radius),
),
primary: color,
);
Icon
Widget saveIcon() => iconsStyle1(
Icons.save,
);
// Common icon style
iconsStyle1(icon) => Icon(
icon,
color: white,
size: 15,
);
Button use
ElevatedButton.icon(
icon: saveIcon(),
style:
customElevatedButton(color: Colors.green[700]),
label: Text('Save',
style: TextStyle(color: Colors.white)),
onPressed: () {
},
),
In Flutter, the
Container()
widget is used for styling your widget. Using theContainer()
widget, you can set a border or rounded corner of any widget.
If you want to set any type of styling and set the decoration, put that widget into the Container()
widget. That provides many properties to the decoration.
Container(
width: 100,
padding: EdgeInsets.all(10),
alignment: Alignment.center,
decoration: BoxDecoration(
color: Colors.blueAccent,
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(30)), // Make rounded corner
child: Text("Click"),
)
Another cool solution that works in 2021:
TextButton(
child: Padding(
padding: const EdgeInsets.all(5.0),
child: Text('Follow Us'.toUpperCase()),
),
style: TextButton.styleFrom(
backgroundColor: Colors.amber,
shadowColor: Colors.red,
elevation: 2,
textStyle: TextStyle(fontSize: 18, fontWeight: FontWeight.bold),
shape: RoundedRectangleBorder(
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(5.0),)
),
onPressed: () {
print('Pressed');
},
),
addButton() {
return Row(
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
children: <Widget>[
Padding(
padding: const EdgeInsets.symmetric(vertical: 10.0),
child: SizedBox(
height: 45,
width: 200,
child: ElevatedButton.icon(
onPressed: () async {},
style: ButtonStyle(
shape: MaterialStateProperty.all<RoundedRectangleBorder>(
RoundedRectangleBorder(
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(30.0),
)),
elevation: MaterialStateProperty.all(1),
backgroundColor: MaterialStateProperty.all(Colors.blue),
),
icon: Icon(Icons.add, size: 18),
label: Text("Add question"),
),
),
),
],
);
}
you can use this style for your elevatedButton to make it circular
style: ButtonStyle(
elevation: MaterialStateProperty.all(8.0),
backgroundColor:
MaterialStateProperty.all(Constants().orangeColor),
textStyle: MaterialStateProperty.all(
TextStyle(
fontSize: 16.0,
),
),
shape: MaterialStateProperty.all<CircleBorder>(
CircleBorder(),
),
shadowColor: MaterialStateProperty.all(Constants().orangeColor),
),
With Flutter version 2, try this
ElevatedButton(
style: ButtonStyle(
shape: MaterialStateProperty.all<OutlinedBorder>(
RoundedRectangleBorder(
side:
BorderSide(width: 1.0, color: Colors.red,
borderRadius:
BorderRadius.circular(5.0),),),
backgroundColor: MaterialStateProperty.all<Color>(Colors.red),
foregroundColor: MaterialStateProperty.all<Color>(Colors.green),
elevation:
MaterialStateProperty.all<double>(8.0),
padding: MaterialStateProperty.all<EdgeInsetsGeometry>(
const EdgeInsets.symmetric(
horizontal: 15.0,
vertical: 10.0),),),
onPressed: (){},
child: Text('Button'),)
Container(
width: yourWidth,
height: yourHeight ,
decoration: BoxDecoration(
borderRadius: radius,
gradient: yourGradient,
border: yourBorder),
child: FlatButton(
onPressed: {} (),
shape: RoundedRectangleBorder(borderRadius: radius),
.......
and use the same radius.
