Hi evanse9, Much appreciated! Would you mind sharing your code so I can learn from it?

Hi, we were able to resolve the problem. I uploaded 3 images were you can see the List we created, the original Choice.inline widget code and the modified Choice.inline code. In the original code, we used the prewritten methods provided by the Choice package at the level of the 'selected' and 'onselected' properties which is
"selected: selection.selected(_c_k[i]),
onSelected: selection.onSelected( _c_k[i], ),"

but in the modified(fixed) version we created a variable (Selected_car_K) which can hold a certain string and compare it's value to the name(text written on the choice chip) of the choice chip, and if the names are the same, the state of that choice chip is changed and it get selected. This is the code
" selected: Selected_car_K == _c_k[i].K_name ,
onSelected: (value) {
setState(() {
Selected_car_K = value ? _c_k[i].K_name.toString() : 'all' ;
});
},"
So i think the problem was at the level of the state management or the prewritten select method called at the level of the properties 'selected' and 'onselected' or may be i implemented the widget wrongly.

I see! To manage the selected value in your choice widget, you have two approaches:

1. Updating from outside the widget:

   Use the onChanged parameter to define a callback function that receives the newly selected value. This function can then update your selectedValue variable accordingly.

2. Setting the initial value inside the widget:

   Set the value parameter directly to your selectedValue variable. This will automatically populate the widget with the current selection.

Here's a code example that demonstrates both approaches:

InlineChoice<String>.single(
  clearable: true,
  value: selectedValue, // Set initial value
  onChanged: (newValue) { // Handle value changes from outside
    setState(() {
      selectedValue = newValue;
    });
  },
  itemCount: choices.length,
  itemBuilder: (state, i) {
    return ChoiceChip(
      selected: state.selected(choices[i]),
      onSelected: state.onSelected(choices[i]),
      label: Text(choices[i]),
    );
  },
),
