Touch size of icon is too small

[apgapg]

I think the touch area for icon is small. Only when you precisely touch icon then only it receives touch. Can we have something with which we can increase. touch area for icons? Its little inconvinient to change tabs

@apgapg Thanks for the feedback ,I have introduce two new attributes in version 2.1.0 which is debug & tabMargin for GNav to increase the touchable area.

I've maximized the touch area of the icons by wrapping them in a Flexible widget:

https://github.com/nohli/google_nav_bar/commit/fa47ff658f85565c063e1801b3198a3bdc41caa4

You could try it by adding this to your pubspec.yaml:

  google_nav_bar:
    git:
      url: https://github.com/nohli/google_nav_bar

Right now, it's not perfect - it collapses for a short moment when changing tabs, but it looks okay, when setting something like:

            curve: Curves.easeInOutSine,
            duration: const Duration(milliseconds: 700),

(because of this I also removed the variable clickable, which blocked another tab switching for the full animation duration)

@nohli wow interesting,I'll try it out

hi @nohli it just changed the behaviour of the animation, which doesn't match with the original one; the button must stick infront

@sooxt98 try wrapping the GButton/gButton with
Container(color: Colors.red, child: ...)
(in your code line 67, in my fork line 98):

before:

after:

The red painting also reflects the touchable area.
