ScrollablePositionedList: Gesture detector to dismiss keyboard is not working

[darwin-morocho]

On IOS devices we don't have back button to dismiss the keyboar so I that cases I use onTap event in GestureDector to dismiss the keyboard.

GestureDetector works fine with ListView but with scrollable_positioned_list is not working

It would help a lot if you could provide sample code (ideally a test) that can reproduce the problem. Thanks!

+1 to what @jamesderlin said, but I will try to repo. In this case, I think I understand sufficiently to make an attempt at repoing.

Just try a GestureDetector in scrollable_positioned_list and you'll see that it's not working. Something in the package is blocking the children's gesture detector from firing. once in a while, ontap works but rarely, but onLongPress never works.

I found out the my problem was using a UniqueKey() with my stateful widget that made it unable to detect gesturedetector regularly. But the time I figured it out, I had already switch my code to use a Listview.Builder instead SrollablePositionedList so I'm not sure if the issue is specifically tied to your package as well.
