Flutter images not loaded (EXCEPTION: resolving an image codec)

Question

When I try to run images assets doesn't get properly loaded, I am getting an exception:

The following assertion was thrown resolving an image codec: Unable to load asset: /images/p8.png`

Some weeks ago it was working and now it stopped. I tried to run from different pc and mac too (with simulator) anв still no images can be loaded. Fonts instead are properly loaded.

This is how I load the images, they are rendered inside a GridView Below is the code:

return new Expanded(
      child: new GridView.count(
          crossAxisCount: 2,
          padding: const EdgeInsets.fromLTRB(16.0, 25.0, 16.0, 4.0),
          children: <Widget>[
            new MaterialButton(
              onPressed: () {
                Navigator.of(context).pushNamed('/biliardo');
              },
              child: new Column(
                children: <Widget>[
                  new Image(
                    //parte importante, definire gli asset per trovarli più velocemnte
                    //si inseriscono nel pubspec.yaml
                    image: new AssetImage('/images/p8.png'),
                    height: 100.0,
                    width: 100.0,
                  ),
                  new Text(
                    "BILIARDO",
                    style: new TextStyle(
                      color: (darkTheme) ? Colors.blue : Colors.black,
                    ),
                  )
                ],
              ),
            ),

            .....

    );

pubsec.yaml file code:

flutter:
  uses-material-design: true

    - images/emptyBall.png

Answer 1

Get rid of the leading / in your path to the png. It should be images/p8.png.

Also, consider using the cleaner Image.asset constructor, for example:

new Image.asset('images/p8.png', width: 100.0, height: 100.0)
