@thomasnield I lied. The fxlauncher I uploaded here should support file:// deployment

At once only one model can be edited then. What if i want multiple models. Like in my senario i want to actually loop over all my notes and display them together in multiple text fields. And they can be edited separately.

@thomasnield Start it with java -cp fxlauncher.jar --uri=file:///path/to/your/app

@thomasnield It should point to the folder where app.xml and the libraries are

@thomasnield Let me know how it goes. If all is well, I'll release this right away

@harshmaur You can use a listview in edit mode for example, or as you did, with a lot of textareas. I don't know if that UI would scale very well and be pleasant to use though.

That's just for my understanding how state and model works.

Ofcourse it's not a proper application.

List view again the way you have it in todomvc is really good. I could have tried it, I am going to infact. But I was trying different ways to do the same things that I've done before with javascript.

I see. For a small number of notes that would work I guess. Or you could change a label to a textfield when you click or focus it perhaps.

@edvin awesome! Going to try this now.

And thanks again for your time, I know it's constrained.

@edvin yeah, but I am actually not able to figure out how to bind in that situation.

@harshmaur Do you mean label -> textfield?

Actually, even then, a ListView is probably the best bet. It can show a label in ro mode and a textarea in edit mode.

Yes. I was actually thinking about that. Infact the list view can be customized as well to a custom component right?

Anything that is supposed to be shown in repetition can be shown with list view

@harshmaur there's also a Drawer layout that might be of interest if you have a customizable, repeating section that will drive additional actions https://github.com/edvin/tornadofx-guide/blob/master/7.%20Layouts%20and%20Menus.md

Yes. Saw that. Thanks! 😄

@edvin is it possible you can do a soft release? I'm having some Gradle dependency issues that I think may be resolved if its published...

@thomasnield I can push a snapshot?

@thomasnield You could test this against the stuff you already built though, just by executing the command i wrote. But I agree, much easier to test when it's part of your build.

@thomasnield I pushed a snapshot to oss.sonatype.org now 🙂 1.0.17-SNAPSHOT

@edvin okay thank you. Yes I tried that command but got some weird Gradle build error. Let me try this, and thanks for being so patient

@thomasnield Gradle error.. that was weird indeed. Gradle shouldn't be involved at that stage at all, not even be on the classpath.

okay, maybe I'm overcomplicating this.

I think you are 🙂

I'll record one video then I'll check back in!

@edvin let me try to not get you to go through that trouble.

@thomasnield That's no trouble at all, Thomas! I'll ping you when I'm done here 🙂
