@kastork You can just use the

removeWhen

function, then you don't need to care about the state of the parent.

@shodan45 If you're on Linux, then HiDPI is not really supported in JavaFX 8. It was fixed in Java 9, but TornadoFX isn't yet compatible with Java 9 unfortunately. It's a bit of an issue, as Java 9 seems to have a fair number of JavaFX related bugs as well, so I haven't been too keen to take on the refactoring needed to bring TornadoFX up to Java 9 yet.

I've seen a fair bit of confusion surrounding the ViewModel lately, so I will elaborate on this in my next screencast.

We are getting substantial help from @sleonidy with TornadoFX-ControlsFX. Thank you! https://github.com/edvin/tornadofx-controlsfx/pull/2

Hey guys

I'm getting a very bizarre behavior with TornadoFX 1.7.12 (latest) and IDEA

@thomasnield uploaded a file: TornadoFXBug.zip

IDEA seems to struggle to find TornadoFX types with 1.7.12, but is fine with 1.7.11

And yet, when I run the application from the command line in Gradle, everything runs just fine

Refresh the Gradle project in idea maybe?

Dependency might not be getting imported into idea correctly

@sleonidy Thank you for a fantastic head start on that project 🙂

@thomasnield What's the error message? Remember that when you change versions you also need to rebuild your project completely. Files compiled against TornadoFX 1.7.11 is not binary compatible when you place TornadoFX 1.7.12 on the classpath.

Build -> Rebuild project 🙂

There seems to be something going on with IDEA's Kotlin plugin and gradle builds. Frequently, after IDEA gets done doing background processing, like indexing, you will see the "Kotlin is not configured" warning when you open a Kotlin file. If you then re-import the gradle configuration, the warning goes away and all is fine.

I wonder if it might be possible that the TornadoFX plugin and the Kotlin plugin are having some strange interaction?

@kastork This only happens i TornadoFX projects, not other Kotlin based Gradle projects?

I haven't verified that -- I only brought it up because of Thomas' remark

@edvin I think I did that, I tried almost everything I think. And I think @kastork is right, it has been doing that behavior and been acting inconsistent and weird.

@edvin it's been acting especially strange with TornadoFX, but it's also been acting strange in general

I got it working now

But I don't know what in the world happened

@thomasnield If it happens again, can you give me the complete error message/stack trace?

That should tell us where the issue lies.

It started working when I built another project, like some kind of bug state was reset

@edvin sure

Ahh.. that right there is one of the reasons I don't use Gradle. I just don't have time to play with the IDEA "support" for it 🙂 hehe

@edvin ah, that daemon service might be sharing state.

And I wished I was using Maven today

I know it's not cool to use Maven for some reason, I just think it works great and it never gives me any grief, so I stay with it 🙂
