Flutter TextField change Icon Color when Selected
I was able to achieve that with
ThemeData(
colorScheme: ThemeData().colorScheme.copyWith(
primary:Colors.red,
),
),
inside MaterialApp or you add Theme on your TextFormField
Theme(
data:Theme.of(context).copyWith(
colorScheme: ThemeData().colorScheme.copyWith(
primary:Colors.red,
),
),
child:TextFormField()
)
As per flutter's update, accentColor property has been deprecated.

OLD:
theme: ThemeData(
accentColor: Colors.blue,
),
NEW:
theme: ThemeData(
colorScheme: ThemeData().colorScheme.copyWith(
secondary: Colors.blue,
),
),
When Selected the color shown is app primaryColor: of Theme.
One Way of changing is using Theme Widget.
Theme(
child: TextField(
decoration: InputDecoration(
prefixIcon: Icon(Icons.email),
labelText: "Email",
hintText: "[email protected]",
),
autofocus: true,
),
data: Theme.of(context)
.copyWith(primaryColor: Colors.redAccent,),
),
Other is to change primaryColor at MaterialApp Theme level.
In Flutter 2.5, you can set the active color of the icon in ColorScheme.primary:
theme: ThemeData().copyWith(
colorScheme: ThemeData().colorScheme.copyWith(
primary: Colors.green,
),
),
