Hyperlink - add pointer cursor by default, important for Flutter web.

[slavap]

Something like that when standard widget for hyperlink is building:

MouseRegion(
  cursor: SystemMouseCursors.click,
  child: ...

[daohoangson]

This can be done for link that is an image or some widget but won't work for inline link because TextSpan doesn't allow us to specify a cursor.

@daohoangson MouseRegion can take TextSpan as child I believe.

[daohoangson]

I have just double checked, MouseRegion only takes Widget as child so it's definitely won't work.

You are probably confused between:

• TextSpan (which is an InlineSpan)
• and Text / RichText (which are widgets)?

@daohoangson
Yep, I see. There is issue for adding hover gesture recognizer flutter/flutter#33312
When it is fixed, I think it will be possible to fix this one as well.

[daohoangson]

Yes, in the mean time I have added mouse region for widgets. You can try it here:

This inline image as link should have the cursor on hover:

A pre-release version has been published with support for mouse cursor, it requires Flutter 2.2 (that's why it's pre-release). Update your pubspec into something like this:

dependencies:
  flutter_widget_from_html: ^0.7.0-0

Let me know if it works for you.

@daohoangson
Tested on flutter_widget_from_html_core: ^0.7.0-dev.2021052101
Works just fine, thank you!

[slavap]

@daohoangson Correction to my previous comment. Works fine in Flutter Web, but on Android - still no pointer cursor :-(

You connect a wireless mouse to your phone?

[slavap]

@daohoangson Sounds like you are right, I need to test on real Android with connected mouse, not on emulator.

[daohoangson]

Yes, I think you need a real device to test this.
