Hi @mrjake34 thanks for the PR

[maheshj01]

@mrjake34 The getter 'maintainHintHeight' isn't defined for the type 'SearchInputDecoration, I believe SearchInputDecoration is inheriting all the properties of inputDecoration

[mrjake34]

I tested on Flutter version 3.26.0-1.0.pre.259, all tests done. There might be a newly added variable

Perhaps you are not on flutter stable channel? Can you share the output of flutter doctor?

[mrjake34]

The system required the 'maintainHintHeight' attribute. I was getting an error until I included it. By adding this attribute, I was able to fix the issue.

Can we at least merge the extension of the copyWith constructor and ignore the value? This should be compatible with both Flutter SDKs >= and >3.24.x
