Yes, it's all in the docks for JavaPackager: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/technotes/tools/unix/javapackager.html

You'd probably pass

-Bcategory=...

as a

javapackagerOptions

entry 🙂

Thanks Edvin

@pike Did it work?

How can I divide the layout builder into methods? Let's say I have a

createLabel()

method, and I am doing

root = vbox { style {/**/} createLabel() }

That doesn't add the label, what am I doing wrong?

Figured it out, it's

this += createLabel()

@edvin the category didn't seem to work, thanks for looking it up though

@pike Pretty sure it should work! Can you post your build file?

My Kotlin Video course actually teaches this technique 🙂 Hehe

@User uploaded a file: Untitled

@edvin Actually I was looking for something like that, I wanted to make a custom textfield that has its own context menu and styling

@pike If it's just an instance of the default JavaFX textfield I think you're better off using the

textfield

builder and then adding an extension function that adds the context menu and styling. The only reason for not using the

textfield

builder is if you're instance is not the JavaFX TextField.

@edvin yes it is. I didn't know how to do that, so I just made a fragment with the textfield

I got tired of copying and pasting the same 4 lines everywhere I wanted the same textfield/menu combo

@pike A fragment is "too heavy" for containing just a textfield, that wouldn't make any sense. You would create an extension function that operates on TextField:

fun TextField.addMyCustomMenuAndStyling() { }

. Inside the function,

this

would be the TextField.

Add your code there once, and just call that function inside the textfield builder:

textfield { addMyCustomMenuAndStyling() }

. Oh, and dream up a more sexy word for that function 😁

yeah, I went from trying to extend textfield to just slapping out a fragment

I forgot about extension functions

They are magical 🙂

Is there a way to add listeners to a chart legend? I'd like to be able to enable or disable a series on click

and thank you, extension worked awesome. ... maybe I'll call it "sexyStyleMe()"

it's rought jumping straight into tornadofx from java8

Not sure about chart legends, I think you would need to check out the source for the chart.

?

@edvin I'm using fieldset as described in the documentation but my fieldset text is not visible. It should look like this but It looks like: I used the same code described in your documentation.

@anujkrvaish There was a bug in 1.7.9, but it's fixed in 1.7.10. What version are you running?

ohh. i am using 1.7.9

@anujkrvaish Did it work when upgrading to 1.7.10?

yes thanks 🙂

@Ruckus It looks like

by

is not reserved for all uses. This works:

infix fun <http://Number.by|Number.by>(that: Number): Point2D = Point2D(this.toDouble(), that.toDouble())
