🛠

Suggests using the correct EdgeInsets constructor.

If any value passed to EdgeInsets.fromLTRB is 0, then EdgeInsets.fromLTRB should be replaced with EdgeInsets.only, passing all non-zero values. If passed values are symmetric, then EdgeInsets.fromLTRB or EdgeInsets.only should be replaced with the EdgeInsets.symmetric constructor.

Example

❌ Bad:

EdgeInsets.fromLTRB(8, 0, 8, 0)
EdgeInsets.fromLTRB (8, 0, 0, 0)
EdgeInsets.only(left: 16, right: 16)
EdgeInsets.fromLTRB(8, 8, 8, 8)

✅ Good:

EdgeInsets.symmetric(horizontal: 8)
EdgeInsets.only(left: 8)
EdgeInsets.symmetric(horizontal: 16)
EdgeInsets.all(8)
