I have an idea.

When a workspace is instantiated, it might be able to register as the workspace or the given scope automatically.

@nimakro I committed a change that allows the workspace to register with the scope a bit earlier. Can you try without your tryLater against HEAD?

@edvin building now

@edvin Mhm I am sorry but it's not working

I need a small test case I can play with.

Ah, I see now why it's not working.

We're in the init block, so the change I made isn't run yet.

And since

init

is run in the super class first I need another approach.

Can you try again now?

@edvin Oky just tried again to with

runlater

everything is working if I remove

runLater

the

listmenu

is not showen anymore but the button is placed in the left container..

so seems this broke something🙈

I will write a test case for this later today and then we can try to figure out why it is behaving like this

runLater

works for now.

OK, reverted it pending a test case 🙂

Why app doesn't close if I open another window, close it and then open again and close the main window?

@User uploaded a file: Untitled

@alexp11223 The app closes when the last window closes. That's the default behavior of JavaFX.

hm. but if I close the main window before closing the second window for the first time, then it closes.

@alexp11223 That's weird. My initial thought is that it should not close the app as long as you have any windows left. Checking.

It has to do with the owner parameter to openWindow I believe.

Yes, if you do

find<MyView>().openWindow(owner = null)

, you can close the initial window and the other window will stay, even on the first try. Investigating why it would behave differently.

Since you have a view, the state of the View is a bit different when you open it again for the second time.

If you change it to a Fragment, it will behave consistently.

If you want to keep it a View and you don't want to close the app if that window is still present, you need to pass

owner = null

to the

openWindow

function.

I can't figure out what's causing the different behavior the second time around yet, but I will revisit this tomorrow 🙂

Is it possible to have generic event like this?

class OpenWindowEvent<T: View>(val windowClass: KClass<T>) : FXEvent()

I can't figure out how to subscribe to it. Looks like I can subscribe only separately for each type, like

subscribe<OpenWindowEvent<MyView>>

ah, looks like

subscribe<OpenWindowEvent<View>>

works

Any example for

rowExpander

? I tried yesterday, but it looks buggy on my side.

@Sola Call it within the

tableview

block and inside the

rowExpander

block, construct the control you want

There should be an example in the guide
