Unable to create multiple overlay window.

[jijormathew]

Hello, how can I make numerous overlay windows with this package? I should also be able to close each window separately.

Please try to add minimal example of the code that you're using. As it says in the docs and sample example creating a new overlay should be as simple as simply calling showOverlay

import 'dart:async';
import 'dart:developer';

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:flutter_overlay_window/flutter_overlay_window.dart';

import 'news_data.dart';

class MyHomePage extends StatefulWidget {
const MyHomePage({super.key});
@OverRide
State createState() => _MyHomePageState();
}

class _MyHomePageState extends State {

@OverRide
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(
title: const Text('Top Stories'),
centerTitle: false,
titleTextStyle: const TextStyle(
fontSize: 30,
color: Colors.black)),
body: ListView.separated(
shrinkWrap: true,
separatorBuilder: (context, idx) {
return const Divider();
},
itemCount: getNewsStories().length,
itemBuilder: (context, idx) {
final article = getNewsStories()[idx];
return ListTile(
onLongPress: (){
_closeOverlayWindow();
},
key: Key('$idx ${article.hashCode}'),
title: Text(article.title),
subtitle: Text(article.description),
onTap: () {
_showOverlayWindow();
},
);
},
));

}
_showOverlayWindow() async {
bool status = await FlutterOverlayWindow.isPermissionGranted();
if(!status){
status = await FlutterOverlayWindow.requestPermission() ?? false;
setState(() {
});
}else{
await FlutterOverlayWindow.showOverlay(alignment: OverlayAlignment.centerLeft,height: 200,width: 300,enableDrag: true,flag: OverlayFlag.defaultFlag,positionGravity: PositionGravity.auto);
}
}
_closeOverlayWindow() async {
await FlutterOverlayWindow.closeOverlay();
}
} This is the example code that I'm attempting to run. I want to launch an overlay window as I press each article, not replace the one that's already open.

@jijormathew Could you put it in a code block?

By the way, is there any example of using & communicating between multiple of windows?

For the moment this package works only on displaying single overlay
