@ajithprasaad Also, there is no need to inject a view only to add it as a subview later, just do

add<Unit>()

@edvin Ok. I will try this. 🙂

Hey guys. I am opening a dialog by calling

openModal

. Unfortunatly the styles aren't applied. Is there anything I have to do to register the styles?

I have a minimal example to show it: https://gist.github.com/jschneider/07491cad70da117accbdbb8088ac32d9

Hi guys, I wanted you opinion on 1 thing. I understand the attraction of using type safe CSS since there is no need to acquire the syntactic sugar knowledge about FXML and everything can be done using 1 language

However, as a begginer with JavaFx I found it much more easier to use the scene builder and generate a FXML and use it

Do you see any demerits in doing so and what are the future plans for tornadoFx as far as support for FXML is concenred ?

@g4sarma TornadoFX has support for FXML

@g4sarma while TornadoFX does support FXML, TornadoFX offers an approach that uses builder patterns using pure Kotlin code. The benefit is you get nice nested structures similar to JSON or XML, but it is pure Kotlin code so you can easily inject logic and behaviors which you can only do in FXML to a limited degree.

@thomasnield Just finished watching your kotlinconf talk, very nice and good job🎉.... I need to checkout your statistics lib for an app I will work on soon 😉

Thanks @nimakro I'm glad you liked it! Please let me know how well Kotlin-Statistics works for you, and if it needs anything else 😃

@kastork I am aware of the support i was asking with regards to the future support

@g4sarma I don't think there are any plans to get rid of it... support for FXML is pretty important for people with legacy code bases and those who prefer it.

@thomasnield thanks for clarify that. Would love to see more tutorials for typesafe CSS in the future. Since i come from Java/Android background i feel more comfortable with FXML but would love to learn more type safe CSS and implement the same in my project

Last I checked, we probably could do a better job documenting type-safe CSS in the guide. I wrote that initial pass so sorry it was a little sparse.

How do I to put the JVM version target in Maven?

Juan: For Kotlin? Add a property: <kotlin.compiler.jvmTarget>1.8</kotlin.compiler.jvmTarget>

In what file exactly?

That page describes it very well

--> pom.xml

though

Nevermind, I put it inside

<properties></properties>

, thx

The

SortedFilteredList

is so handy 🙂 https://stackoverflow.com/questions/47317995/how-do-i-refactor-a-view-to-allow-filtering-of-items-bound-to-an-observablearray/47318451#47318451

@edvin That has weird caching issues for me. When I search for

a

, it shows

Hi there

I'm assuming the cell's graphic cache is at fault

is there a way to make a

tableview

refresh every time its list has any element modified?

actually it already does that, that's not the problem, more accurately, can I make it refresh every time a specific property changes?

Might it be possible that the validation sample in https://edvin.gitbooks.io/tornadofx-guide/content/part1/11.%20Editing%20Models%20and%20Validation.html is wrong? I think the enableWhen should be on the button not in the action?

buttonbar {
    button("Login", ButtonBar.ButtonData.OK_DONE).action {
        enableWhen { model.valid }
        model.commit {
            doLogin()
        }
    }
}

Hey, I would like to use a FontAwesome icon in type safe css. Has anybody an example?
