@edvin can you mention me, when you merged the pull requests? If I keep refactoring now, I think that I get a lot of work to do during rebasing. Afterwards, I will replace if/else with when, where it makes sense

@dr.fornax the last sample project I have is "dynamic-contacts" with the phone numbers / email / social media form. Is FreeTextView added to the bottom of the window?

@dr.fornax did you ever solve the combobox problem from earlier?

I added a Tab where it is shown

@edvin @dr.fornax This seems to be holding the value once you navigate off of the list item. Looking at the TornadoFX code

@edvin @dr.fornax Still looking. I think that in EventTarget.combobox, items/values is null prior to making the bind call. So, the effect in TornadoFX is to try and set a value on a ComboBox with an empty items list. I went through the debugger and see this after navigating back and forth after adding an item

Expecting phoneTypes 3 element list

@dr.fornax @edvin There's something weird with the op() argument isEditable setting in the combobox builder. If i leave off Stefan's { isEditable } and pass in the phoneTypes items, everything works and the combobox value is retained. I'm typing up an issue on this

combobox(model.label, phoneTypes) // works

looking at the cell value factory when the textfield in the combobox is configured + buttonCell

Hi @carlw Thank you for your time to investigate the problem. This is very helpful for me and I appreciate that you put your time in finding a solution for it

I myself was not able to solve the combobox problem, but in the first run switched to simple textboxes, which was not what I wanted but worked in the first run. However, if this is some bug that can be resolved quite easy this would be wonderful to get it working again

I'm going to look at this later. It might be a JavaFX thing about how the value gets added to the TextField buttonCell

Can anyone share a working copy of the example provided in the tornadofx guide: CurrentView? I want to cross reference with what I have as I am experiencing a problem with #increment in the fxml file. Or other examples with tornadofx with fxml would help. I am trying to wrap my head with fxml and tornadofx -- I like the visual aspect of Scene Builder to create the UI and struggling 😞 Any reference assistance and guidance would be appreciated.

Hi all, I’m stuck trying to pass parameters to a new view. I have a table, and I want to open a new view, and I’ve been using the event bus as a router for view changes. How can I pass the parameters into the soon to be loaded view?

@teckeon Uploading two files: the FXML in CounterView.fxml and the Kotlin code in CounterApp.kt

.fxml from the FXML section in the guide

Kotlin code from the FXML section in the guide

ooo @carlw do you have any good suggestions for me? I just need to pass some details to a new view I’m striking out with scoeps..

yeah...getting to that...had to check on everyone's non-kotlin homework first

IIRC we had something around the openModal calls

getting a .kt togetehr

I’ve got it working if it’s flat scope to a view, but I have a “router” which I’d like to adapt for this

One way is to set something on the View object prior to the openModal call. searching for a more direct method

@User uploaded a file: Setting View Fields En Route to openModal

I suppose I’ll need to extend a view to make it have a parameters property

In JavaFX, you can use any Node and set UserData as you might have done with Swing or the more flexible Properties object

yeah I was trying to do that:
