Same issue on windows and linux flutter web.

[fingineering]

It might be the case that you need to change markNeedsBuild to markNeedsLayout as the latter is implemented on the RenderObject

But I'm not a hundred percent sure, it might cause unnecessary repaints, maybe another mark method would better fit the intentions. It did work on my side, tough.

The Flutter 3.24.0 is on stable channel and this plugin syncfusion_flutter_charts is not compatible with it due to this error. It would require prompt fix.
