@ajithprasaad Does that work for you? You might want to add some offsets/padding of course.

@edvin Thanks, yeah. It is just an example to show you, what it looks like. The size of the dialog works, but how do I set the position to overlay on the tabbed view

I have to schedule a big(?) pause. I got a notification from school that my thesis is not accepted... If you want to change the styleguide, go ahead (https://stackedit.io/editor#!provider=couchdb&id=8LEuPZZBhXNTancew6NlAymu)

@tieskedh Oh my I am sorry to hear that. I hop you get that sorted out quickly.

I have a TreeTableView that I have working (mostly) the way I want. I have a RowFactory set that supports Drag and Drop and that is working pretty well. However, I need to be able to edit one of the columns and I can't seem to find a way to do that. I have added

setOnEdit...

method calls to the column:

titleCol.setOnEditStart  {
		startEditingTitle(it)
	}
	titleCol.setOnEditCommit {
		commitEdit(it)
		endEditingTitle(it)
	}
	titleCol.setOnEditCancel {
		endEditingTitle(it)
	}

But, even though these methods get called I can't actually edit the cell's contents. What do I have to do to be able to edit the contents of the cells?

Did you set the

cellFactory

for the particular column?

You would most probably want the cell to be a https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/javafx/api/javafx/scene/control/cell/TextFieldTreeTableCell.html

@abhinay, no, I didn't. I had a row factory but wasn't aware of a separate cell factory. I'll look into it. Part of the problem of still learning JavaFX and TornadoFX at the same time. Thanks.

Hello, yesterday I started experimenting with charts. Pie Chart was quite easy to use and the example in https://edvin.gitbooks.io/tornadofx-guide/content/8.%20Charts.html with Map-Based data sources works quite well. But when I switch to barcharts or xy charts I can not construct such a chart from a map and add it with data(items). Why is the representation not compatible here? What if I want to show the same data one time in a bar chart and one time in a pie chart? I searched for examples but did not found one where it is shown how I construct a BarChart with dynamic data. Can someone give me a hint or link?

I think I have to put the map of my item in some kind of series, but how is this constructed when I would like to have a map?

This looks logical for me, but how des the data map to be constructed?

@ajithprasaad You would pass in the position of the parent, just like I did with the width/height

@ajithprasaad You could also pass in the parent itself, so you can extract whatever values you need from a single object

@tieskedh That sucks.. hope you get it sorted, I'm sure it will work out!

It's my birthday today, won't have much time but will try to catch up in the evening 🙂

@edvin Happy Birthday! 🎉

@abhinay Thanks :))

@dr.fornax You can loop over your map items and call data with the key and value.

@melston Unfortunately we don't support 'makeEditable()' for the TreeTableView columns yet, like we do for TableView columns, so you are left with the option of doing it the good old vanilla JavaFX way. I will add an issue for supporting makeEditable as well as much nicer dnd support for TreeView, TableView and TreeTableView. I won't be able to get to it before JavaOne though, my plate is quite full right now, but after we'll get it sorted for sure 🙂

@edvin Thank you 🙂 This was where I was stuck. Now I will findout how I can change the color per chartItem etc. You helped me very much

@dr.fornax I think you do that with CSS, let me know if you get stuck, pretty sure I did that in our CRM so I might have some code!

Is this code open?

I currently read much code to understand more and more of tornadofx and kotlin 🙂

@dr.fornax No it's not. I would like it to be, but if I open it up I need to update everything to the latest syntax. It was the first ever TornadoFX app, so it has a lot of non optimal code, to say the least.

🙂 Okay, this would be the same when I open my test project

But it is a good thing to learn, integrate everything I could integrate and find about TornadoFX is a great way to understand it. Most things work but there are always parts where mostly Kotlin is my problem

If you find the css this would be great. I would like to use the viewmodel to highlight one of the charts to show that this one is selected

@edvin, thanks. I have it working pretty well with a cellfactory now. Happy birthday and have a productive time at JavaOne.

I have a menu with a

checkmenuitem

in it that I would like to bind to a property in my controller. There doesn't seem to be a

bind

method on

checkmenuitem

like there is on

checkbox

. How do I bind the menu item to the property?
