@User uploaded a file: Button not placed at BOTTOM_CENTER

However, when i make the static method call directly in init(), it does work

@User uploaded a file: Working - Button to BOTTOM_CENTER

Checking. I think I'd need the images to see this perhaps?

@carlw You're not using StackPane.setAlignment in the first code sample, you're just calling

Labeled.setAlignment()

@User uploaded a file: Untitled

Does that work for you?

margin can go in there too?

Yes,

margin

and

alignment

perfect. thx

button(">") { stackpaneConstraints { alignment = Pos.BOTTOM_CENTER margin = Insets(0.0, 0.0, 40.0, 0.0) } }

Great :))

Bed time. I will try to catch up on all the things I missed these last days tomorrow, I know I haven't had a chance to answer everyone.

Ok, I'm working on a form to query conversion, the form controllers are jfoenix, I'm trying to figure out how to make the code more concise and kotlin

There really isn't any other approach than validating or manually checking each one is there?

for example:

if (fromDate.value != null) {
                var from = fromDate.value.toString() + " "
                if (fromTime.value != null) {
                    from += fromTime.value.toString() + ":00"
                } else {
                    from += "00:00:00"
                }
                params.put("fromdate", from)
            }

if (fromDate.value != null) params.put( "fromDate","${fromDate.value.toString()}${fromTime.value ?: "00:00"}:00")

@pike have you looked over the TornadoFX validation framework? do you have some legacy code in jfoenix?

I have not looked yet, jfoenix is just for the styles 😛

and the date/time picker I love the time picker especially

well, just re-writing the ifs into elvises changed the length and complexity drastically

i'm converting some java code over to kotlin as we speak too

I love not having to check for null except when I absolutely have to.

yeah. i've been doing a lot of final and Optional in my Java code

this particular porting started with a lot of "var" and i've been able to push stuff into the typesafe builders and to upgrade to "val"

yeah, I really liked that, but still making Optional is a little extra work compared to elvis

I really want to get rid of this:

val fromNumber: JFXTextField by fxid()
    val toNumber: JFXTextField by fxid()
    val submit: JFXButton by fxid()
    val bothToggle: JFXToggleButton by fxid()
    val fromTime: JFXTimePicker by fxid()
    val toTime: JFXTimePicker by fxid()
    val fromDate: JFXDatePicker by fxid()
    val toDate: JFXDatePicker by fxid()
    val gateway: JFXComboBox<String> by fxid()

those are the form controls

ooo... I see, I make a viewModel for the control and then give it validation?

plus the commit and rollback
