Flutter plugin supports to run on two screens. It's basically a tablet connected to another screen via an HDMI or Wireless
Idea: We create a Widget
by using Flutter code and pass it to Native code side then convert it to FlutterEngine
and save it to FlutterEngineCache
for later use.
Next, we define the Display by using displayId and we will define the UI flutter that needs to display by grabbing FlutterEngine
in FlutterEngineCache
and transferring it to Dialog Presentation
as a View.
We provide methods to get a list of connected devices and the information of each device then transfer data from the main display to the secondary display.
Simple steps:
-
Create Widgets that need to display and define them as a permanent router when you configure the router in the Flutter code.
-
Get the Displays list by calling
displayManager.getDisplays ()
-
Define which Display needs to display For instance:
displays [1] .displayId
Display the index 2. -
Display it on Display with your routerName as
presentation
displayManager.showSecondaryDisplay (displayId: displays [1] .displayId, routerName: "presentation")
-
Transmit the data from the main display to the secondary display by
displayManager.transferDataToPresentation (" test transfer data ")
-
The secondary screen receives data
@override
Widget build (BuildContext context) {
return SecondaryDisplay (
callback: (argument) {
setState (() {
value = argument;
});
}
);
}
