Get "y" position of container on Flutter

You can use GlobalKey for getting size or position of widget

GlobalKey key = GlobalKey(); // declare a global key

add key to your widget, whose position you need to find

Container(
   key: key,
   ...
); 

get the position using a renderbox

RenderBox box = key.currentContext.findRenderObject() as RenderBox;
Offset position = box.localToGlobal(Offset.zero); //this is global position
double y = position.dy; //this is y - I think it's what you want

class _DetectCenterState extends State<DetectCenter> {

Size _wSize;
int listSize = 4;
List<GlobalKey> _key = [];

ScrollController _sController;

_scrollListener() {
 print("scrolling : " + _sController.offset.toString());

 setState(() {
   getPosition();
});}

@override
void initState() {

for(int i=0; i < listSize; i++) {
  _key.add(new GlobalKey());
}

_sController = ScrollController();

_sController.addListener(_scrollListener);
super.initState();
}

void getPosition(){

double _wCenterTop = (_wSize.height / 2) - 150.0;
double _wCenterBottom = (_wSize.height / 2) + 150.0;

print("center bottom: " + _wCenterBottom.toString());
print("center top: " + _wCenterTop.toString());


for(int i=0; i < listSize; i++) {

  //add key to your widget, which position you need to find
  RenderBox box = _key[i].currentContext.findRenderObject();
  Offset position = box.localToGlobal(Offset.zero); //this is global position
  double y = position.dy; //this is y - I think it's what you want

   print("key $i y position: " + y.toString());

  if(y < _wCenterTop && y > _wCenterBottom) print("key $i center: " + y.toString());
 }}
