@edvin where do you usually put event bus stuff? For now it’s in my app’s main class init{}

@pike I try to localize it as much as possible. If it's only used within a single view, I normally place it there, and branch out as necessary.

Ok, one other little detail, we should add lambda-argument-names to parameters.

fun test(a: (arg: A)->Unit)=...

This makes the parameters more clear

Absolutely, that would help a lot, Thijs.

It's an API, after all.

yeah, I’m using it for navigation right now kind of like workspace

You like tornados :-)

having trouble getting my app to close nicely now that I added a modal for loading 😞 fixed by adding a System.exit() to the App launcher stop function

@aayush commented on @edvin’s file https://kotlinlang.slack.com/files/U0F3291QE/F7GCZ4XC3/close_tab_using_event.kt: Thanks

tabs.find { it.content.uiComponent<UIComponent>() == event.toClose }?.removeFromParent()

this works

I'll add a specific

close()

function to Tab as well!

Committed 🙂

@pike By default, the app will exit when the last window is closed. If you have threads running however, they might block the app from exiting. You could make them daemon threads to avoid this. Also see

Platform.implicitExit

@tieskedh I like tornadoes, or my imagination just isn't that great 🙂

Hey all. I am having slight trouble with the CSS. I am going through JavaFX 9 By Example and doing to examples with TornadoFX. In chapter 9, there is an audio player example the presents the frequency in a chart format. The fill is to be represented as a linear gradient; starting from red and ending in violet. I more than likely using the LinearGradient class wrong; but I thought someone here may tell me what exactly I am doing wrong. Below is an example of a rectangle with the linear gradient as the fill.

Here is the CSS

Relative `LinearGradient`s use values in the range 0.0-1.0, not 0.0-100.0, so you should use something like this:

Thank you! I am an idiot. I need to read it more carefully.

If that's all it takes to qualify as an idiot, we're all doomed 🙂

I'm sure we've all confused 100.0 with 100% more times than we'd like to admit

Too true. 😄

Sorry for being quiet lately, I need a couple of days for other projects and also charge my batteries. I will check in every day, but won't use much time in front of the computer if I can avoid it 🙂

Probably offtopic, but what can be done if IDEA shows

Unknown pseudo selector 'active'

error in CSS file?

@edvin using a pop-up window or modal, when I click the 'x' to close the app, it stays alive unless I add the System.exit(0) to the close function

I'm thinking this is not good for our friends at Gluon... https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/ai/introducing-gluon-an-easy-to-use-programming-interface-for-flexible-deep-learning/

confusing at least...

@jchildress that's too bad

seems like entering 3 or 4 keywords in google would have found a conflict. guess they don't care

Agree... not sure why they (Amazon/Microsoft) picked that name...
