Flutter TextButton splashColor property

Issue

I was using FlatButton and passed the properties

FlatButton(
      splashColor: Colors.transparent,
      highlightColor: Colors.transparent,
      child: ..., 
)

The documentation says that FlatButton will become obsolete, and to use TextButton instead, but it does not take splashColor or highlightColor properties

TextButton(                  
    splashColor: Colors.transparent,
    highlightColor: Colors.transparent,
    child: ...,       
)

does not work. it is not allowed

I also tried like this

TextButton(            
  style: ButtonStyle(
    splashColor: Colors.transparent,
    highlightColor: Colors.transparent,
  ),
  child: ..., 
)

How can I do this? Thank you

Solution

Colors.transparent will deny any effects, simply it is transparent so it will appear as nothing happens… in ButtonStyle, it goes something like this with colors.

ButtonStyle(
   overlayColor: MaterialStateColor.resolveWith((states) => Colors.red),
),
