@pim If you have ideas for improvement in the mean time, please let me know and I might be able to sneak something in 🙂

@eddy_wm You can't have multiple data sources for a single connection, but KDBC supports both multiple data sources and multiple connections 🙂

@jchildress Would the new configuration option give you the look you expect? If you can show/explain me how you'd want it, maybe I can add an option for it 🙂

Hello guys! Newbie here. I'm trying to launch generated by tornado-fx plugin gradle project but intellij shows me "Unresolved reference" and "Error: Could not find or load main class MyApp" when i try to launch it. Any ideas what i've done wrong?

Oh, sorry, needed to add tornadofx to classpath

@dr.fornax commented on @edvin’s file : Is there an example how to create this nice blue bar on the left?

Probably someone can help me with an other problem. All my labels of input fields etc. have gone. i thought I did something wrong with my project but yesterday made this tutorial and now have the same problem

@User uploaded a file: This is my code

@User uploaded a file:

I use tornadofx:1.7.9-SNAPSHOT

I switched to 1.7.9 and have the same problem

@dr.fornax This is a known bug in 1.7.9, it's fixed in 1.7.10-SNAPSHOT. Will release 1.7.10 this weekend 🙂

Ah 🙂 Okay, thank you. I thought this happened during my Java Update. This is good news. Then I know that I continue first with a few other issues.

Ah, this also means that there is a 1.7.10. I must have overseen that this is already available.

Yeah, and sorry about this, I should have tested better. We have added a framework test for this now as well.

Good to know. I always looked at github and only saw 1.7.9. My fault. No problem. I have spend a few hours with this but I’m more than happy that this is not my fault and I can continue know

@dr.forna That blue bar is a theme for the ListMenu, just do

theme = "blue"

. If the colors are not the same, let me know and I'll give you my definition.

First test with the ViewBuilder/ViewEditior. Next will be the live preview 😉

@nimakro That's bad ass!!

We need to figure out how to have the view editor side by side with the code as well!

I couldn't find an option for it, but I've seen other plugins doing that, like the Markdown plugin for example.

On Wednesday I will try my first milling run to create the keyboard case.

@nimakro Very nice...

@edvin 😀 I agree will check out the Markdown plugin to see if I can get it working (this would also allow to move the builder to a different Screen), I don't have more time today but hopfully tomorrow, will push the branch tomorrow as well 😉 Oh nice looking forward to the results of the keyboard case 😉... my friend and I are probably cutting the first test plates for our split keyboard next week Tuesday will post some pictures 😉

@nimakro Cool! Excited to see what you guys come up with as well.

What can be the best way to implement the repository pattern in TornadoFx. Where you have 2 main source of data ( a sqlite db & restful webservice). The data from the service is persisted automatically, and the UI is observing the data from the db to react for changes ....

Even when offline, the system is getting the latest state using the embedded sqlite. One the network is back, the same process starts again, fetching latest data from the web service, persist it to the sqlite db, the UI gets updated according to the sqlite db. Very much like the "Architecture components" introduced by Google on Android this year.

I don't think we have anything that can help with that.

It is most probably outside of scope for the UI framework.

When I started thinking to implement it on TornadoFx, I only realized that one thing was missing just some RX extension(rxjava preferably) . Because I have been already using a rest Apis and an embedded sqlite db in my TornadoFx app. The problem was the data from the service was not reliable as it could be unavailable when the network fails. My idea was not to synch the ui with the data from a service but with the data coming from sqlite db. Just persist to the db the data from the service and update the ui using the only trusted source of data(embedded sqlite)
