How To Set Flutter Text Italic-Easy Flutter Code Example

In this Flutter post, we will be implementing Flutter text italic with a practical Flutter example code so you can also easily set Flutter text italic in your Flutter app as well. A proper step by step explanation is very important and will be provided to better understand how to set the Flutter text italic. So let’s not keep you waiting and jump right into it.

What is Flutter Text Italic?

Flutter text italic is the process to give italic font style to text in Flutter text widget. We will first see what the default Flutter text font style will look and then we will change it to Flutter text italic using an easy Flutter example.

Default Flutter Text Font Style

The default font style of Flutter text widget can be seen but to do that, we first have to define a simple Flutter text widget. See the below code:

Text(
       'This is the default text font style'
          )

The default font style is shown in the above image. Let’s now see how to set the font style to italic.

Implementing Flutter Text Italic Style

In order for you to give italic style to Flutter text, you have to first make use of the style constructor of the Flutter text widget class and pass it the text style class. Now by using the font style constructor of the text style class, you can easily set the font style to italic. For that you just have to pass FontStyle.italic to the font style constructor. Below code demonstrates it:

Text(
     'This is the italic text font style',
     style: TextStyle(fontStyle: FontStyle.italic)
          )

As you can see in the image above that the Flutter text italic is implemented successfully. If you want the font style to be normal the just use FontStyle.normal.

So this is how you should set Flutter text italic. Let me know if you still face any errors related to the implementation of Flutter text italic. I would love to answer all of them.

Below is the complete Flutter source code of the above implemented Flutter text italic.

Flutter Text Italic Implementation Source Code

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
void main() {
  runApp(const MyApp());
}
class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
  const MyApp({Key? key}) : super(key: key);
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return MaterialApp(
      debugShowCheckedModeBanner: false,
      home: Homepage(),
    );
  }
}
class Homepage extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return SafeArea(
        child: Scaffold(
            body: Center(
      child: Padding(
          padding: const EdgeInsets.all(15),
          child: Text(
            'This is the italic text font style',
            style: TextStyle(fontStyle: FontStyle.italic),
          )),
    )));
  }
}
