Screen reader

The SfTreemap can be accessed by the screen readers by wrapping the SfTreemap widget to the Semantics widget.

late List<PopulationModel> _source;
late String _semanticLabel = 'Asia is the most populated continent and Australia is the least populated continent';

@override
void initState() {
   _source = const <PopulationModel>[
      PopulationModel('Asia', 456.07),
      PopulationModel('Africa', 121.61),
      PopulationModel('Europe', 74.64),
      PopulationModel('North America', 57.9),
      PopulationModel('South America', 42.25),
      PopulationModel('Australia', 2.54),
   ];
   super.initState();
}

@override
void dispose() {
  _source.clear();
  super.dispose();
}

@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
  return Scaffold(
     body: Semantics(
        label: 'Syncfusion Flutter Treemap',
        value: _semanticLabel,
        child: Column(
          children: [
            Expanded(
              child: SfTreemap(
                dataCount: _source.length,
                weightValueMapper: (int index) {
                  return _source[index].populationInCrores;
                },
                levels: [
                  TreemapLevel(
                    groupMapper: (int index) {
                      return _source[index].continent;
                    },
                  ),
                ],
              ),
            ),
          ],
        ),
      ),
   );

class PopulationModel {
  const PopulationModel(this.continent, this.populationInCrores);

  final String continent;
  final double populationInCrores;
