Flutter – Another exception was thrown: Duplicate GlobalKey detected in widget tree – StatefulShellRoute

I tried to add route transition animation with AnimatedSwitcher to StatefulShellRoute.indexedStack but got this error:

flutter: ══╡ EXCEPTION CAUGHT BY WIDGETS LIBRARY ╞═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
flutter: The following assertion was thrown while finalizing the widget tree:
flutter: Duplicate GlobalKey detected in widget tree.
flutter: The following GlobalKey was specified multiple times in the widget tree. This will lead to parts of
flutter: the widget tree being truncated unexpectedly, because the second time a key is seen, the previous
flutter: instance is moved to the new location. The key was:
flutter: - [LabeledGlobalKey<StatefulNavigationShellState>#c2de3]
flutter: This was determined by noticing that after the widget with the above global key was moved out of its
flutter: previous parent, that previous parent never updated during this frame, meaning that it either did
flutter: not update at all or updated before the widget was moved, in either case implying that it still
flutter: thinks that it should have a child with that global key.
flutter: The specific parent that did not update after having one or more children forcibly removed due to
flutter: GlobalKey reparenting is:
flutter: - SizedBox-[<'0'>](renderObject: RenderConstrainedBox#33176 relayoutBoundary=up4)
flutter: A GlobalKey can only be specified on one widget at a time in the widget tree.

flutter: Another exception was thrown: Duplicate GlobalKey detected in widget tree.

Code:

return Scaffold(
  body: AnimatedSwitcher(
    duration: const Duration(milliseconds: 500),
    switchInCurve: Curves.ease,
    switchOutCurve: Curves.ease,
    child: SizedBox(
      key: Key(navigationShell.currentIndex.toString()),
      child: navigationShell,
    ),
  ),
  ....

Every time I call navigationShell.goBranch I get this error:

flutter: Another exception was thrown: Duplicate GlobalKey detected in widget tree.

I want there to be a page transition animation. I couldn’t find any solutions.

    Solved!

    I tried adding layoutBuilder to AnimatedSwitcher and it works without errors.

    Code:

        return Scaffold(
      body: AnimatedSwitcher(
        duration: const Duration(milliseconds: 500),
        switchInCurve: Curves.ease,
        switchOutCurve: Curves.ease,
        layoutBuilder: (currentChild, previousChildren) {
          return currentChild!;
        },
        child: SizedBox(
          key: ValueKey(navigationShell.currentIndex),
          child: navigationShell,
        ),
      ),

    The issue is most probably caused by the SizedBox’s key value. Why don’t you replace it with GlobalKey() instead?
