muted property
Whether this ticker has been silenced.
While silenced, a ticker's clock can still run, but the callback will not be called.
Implementation
bool get muted => _muted;
When set to true, silences the ticker, so that it is no longer ticking. If a tick is already scheduled, it will unschedule it. This will not unschedule the next frame, though.
When set to false, unsilences the ticker, potentially scheduling a frame to handle the next tick.
By convention, the muted property is controlled by the object that created the Ticker (typically a TickerProvider), not the object that listens to the ticker's ticks.
Implementation
set muted(bool value) {
if (value == muted) {
return;
}
_muted = value;
if (value) {
unscheduleTick();
} else if (shouldScheduleTick) {
scheduleTick();
}
}
