Interaction Options

The InteractionOptions object passed to MapOptions.interactiveOptions configures the gestures that the user can use to interact with the map. For example, disable rotation or configure cursor/keyboard rotation.

Flags

flags is a bitfieldarrow-up-right that enables and disables the vast majority of gestures. Although technically the type is of int, it is usually set with a combination of InteractiveFlags.

By default, all gestures are enabled, but a non-interactive map can be created using none (and other options in addition).

The recommended way to create an entirely non-interactive map is to wrap the FlutterMap widget in an IgnorePointer widget.

Otherwise, to set flags, there's two methods:

  • Add flags, with the bitwise 'OR' (|) operator in-between For example, InteractiveFlag.drag | InteractiveFlag.rotate

  • Remove flags from all, using the & and ~ operators in-between For example, InteractiveFlag.all & ~InteractiveFlag.rotate

Cursor/Keyboard Rotation

Cursor/keyboard rotation is designed for desktop platforms, and allows the cursor to be used to set the rotation of the map whilst a (customizable) keyboard key (by default, any of the 'Control' keys) is held down.

The CursorKeyboardRotationOptions object passed to the property with the corresponding name configures this behaviour. The CursorKeyboardRotationOptions.disabled() constructor can be used to disable cursor/keyboard rotation.

There's many customization options, see the API docs for more information:
