How to crop circular(or Square or Hexagon ) area from canvas in Flutter

Question

I want to crop a rectangular image-file and make it circular or square or hexagon shape and save it as image-file locally. I have a bitmap and I want to crop a circular or hexagon region from this bitmap. All pixels outside the circle should be transparent. How can I do this?

I found the similar question in android platform. But unable to find a good resource that really help or direct me to achieve this in flutter. Please share me the idea to achieve this result.

Answer 1

These simple steps get the required result.

1. Create a PictureRecorder.
2. Create a Canvas with your PictureRecorder.
3. Draw circle in canvas using canvas.drawCircle().
4. Call endRecording() on the PictureRecorder to get a Picture.
5. Call toImage() on the Picture.
6. Convert image toByteData() .
7. Save image locally using getApplicationDocumentsDirectory().

Canvas Screen

Saved Image Canvas as png

Answer 2

You can use the simple_image_crop package.

See my answer on a similar question here-

Answer 3

Use Clipper to crop your image use ClipRRect, ClipOval and you can also use custom Clipper to give your Custom shape to image check this link https://www.woolha.com/tutorials/flutter-using-clipper-examples

new ClipRRect(
borderRadius: new BorderRadius.circular(8.0),
child: your image child,

)
