How to set Width and Height for Card in Flutter

The Card widget is a useful UI component to display information in Flutter. In this blog post, let’s learn how to set a fixed size for a Card in Flutter.

The Card widget doesn’t have properties for setting width and height. Hence we should wrap the card content with a SizedBox to define the size.

See the code snippet given below.

Card(
        margin: const EdgeInsets.all(20),
        child: SizedBox(
          width: 250,
          height: 100,
          child: ListTile(
            leading: Image.asset('images/sky.jpg'),
            title: const Text('Demo Title'),
            subtitle: const Text('This is a simple card in Flutter.'),
          ),
        ),
      ),

You will get an output of a Card with the given dimensions.

Following is the complete code.

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

void main() {
  runApp(const MyApp());
}

class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
  const MyApp({super.key});

  // This widget is the root of your application.
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return MaterialApp(
      title: 'Flutter Demo',
      theme: ThemeData(
        primarySwatch: Colors.blue,
        // colorSchemeSeed: const Color(0xff6750a4),
        // useMaterial3: true,
      ),
      home: const MyHomePage(),
    );
  }
}

class MyHomePage extends StatelessWidget {
  const MyHomePage({super.key});

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      appBar: AppBar(
        title: const Text('Flutter Card with width and height'),
      ),
      body: Card(
        margin: const EdgeInsets.all(20),
        child: SizedBox(
          width: 250,
          height: 100,
          child: ListTile(
            leading: Image.asset('images/sky.jpg'),
            title: const Text('Demo Title'),
            subtitle: const Text('This is a simple card in Flutter.'),
          ),
        ),
      ),
    );
  }
}

That’s how you set the height and width for the Card in Flutter.
