CircleAvatar #

Bases: LayoutControl

A circle that represents a user.

If foreground_image_src fails then background_image_src is used, and if this also fails, then bgcolor is used.

RAISES DESCRIPTION
AssertionError

If radius or min_radius or max_radius is negative.

AssertionError

If radius is set and min_radius or max_radius is not None.

background_image_src #

background_image_src: str | None = None

The source (local asset file or URL) of the background image in the circle. Changing the background image will cause the avatar to animate to the new image.

If this avatar is to have the user's initials, use content instead.

Typically used as a fallback image for foreground_image_src.

bgcolor #

bgcolor: ColorValue | None = None

The color with which to fill the circle.

Changing the background color will cause this avatar to animate to the new color.

color #

color: ColorValue | None = None

The default color for text in this avatar.

Defaults to the primary text theme color if no bgcolor is specified.

content #

content: StrOrControl | None = None

The content of this avatar.

Typically a Text control.

Tip

If this avatar is to have an image, use background_image_src instead.

foreground_image_src #

foreground_image_src: str | None = None

The source (local asset file or URL) of the foreground image in the circle.

Fallbacks to background_image_src.

Typically used as profile image.

max_radius #

max_radius: Number | None = None

The maximum size of the avatar, expressed as the radius (half the diameter).

Defaults to "infinity".

Note

If max_radius is specified, then radius should not be specified.

min_radius #

min_radius: Number | None = None

The minimum size of the avatar, expressed as the radius (half the diameter). If min_radius is specified, then radius should not be specified.

Defaults to 0.0.

on_image_error #

on_image_error: ControlEventHandler[CircleAvatar] | None = (
    None
)

Called when an error occurs while loading the background_image_src or foreground_image_src.

The data property of the event handler argument is a string whose value is either "background" or "foreground" indicating the error's origin.

radius #

radius: Number | None = None

The size of the avatar, expressed as the radius (half the diameter). If radius is specified, then neither min_radius nor max_radius may be specified.
