1 min read

In the Flutter date range picker, you can restrict the swipe selection by setting the enableSwipeSelection property to false in the date range picker.

STEP 1: Inside the state, set the default values for date picker.

bool _swipeSelection = true;
String _buttonText ='Disable swipe selection';

STEP 2: You can enable or disable the swipe selection dynamically.

child: MaterialButton(
  child: Text(_buttonText),
  onPressed: () {
    setState(() {
      if(_buttonText=='Disable swipe selection')
        {
          _buttonText='Enable swipe selection';
          _swipeSelection = false;
        }
 
      else
        {
          _buttonText='Disable swipe selection';
          _swipeSelection = true;
        }
    });
  },
),

STEP 3: Assign those _swipeSelection value to the enableSwipeSelection property of the picker.

child: SfDateRangePicker(
  view: DateRangePickerView.month,
  selectionMode: DateRangePickerSelectionMode.range,
  monthViewSettings: DateRangePickerMonthViewSettings(
      enableSwipeSelection: _swipeSelection),
),
