@tieskedh Let's say both 🙂

@thomasnield Wow, Gerrit is amazing 🙂

To know programming, math AND have a great sense of design.. Not many of those around 🙂

@amanda.hinchman-dominguez Did anyone mention TilesFX to you, btw? https://github.com/HanSolo/tilesfx

@sleonidy Did it again 🙂 https://github.com/edvin/tornadofx-controlsfx/pull/3

@tieskedh new in Kotlin. I'll be sure to read over those notes as I try to use java's Dataformat and Clipboard.

@edvin no, but I'll look into this and see how successful I am to converting usage to kotlin

which do you prefer

@amanda.hinchman-dominguez That should be very easy 🙂 Let us know if you run into trouble.

@edvin "should be very easy" sounds like a challenge 😉

@ron It's mostly calling setters 🙂

(remembers top gear;s: how hard can it be?)

@amanda.hinchman-dominguez commented on @tieskedh’s file https://kotlinlang.slack.com/files/U3QQLJNG3/F830DE7PD/-.kt: is this related to drag-and-drop?

@tieskedh commented on @tieskedh’s file https://kotlinlang.slack.com/files/U3QQLJNG3/F830DE7PD/-.kt: About the code: I don't know. About my question: I want to know what code-style is preferred, so I can refactor the project in that way. Only thing I'm doing overhere is refactoring, sometimes answering kotlin-questions and most of the time, seeing if I accidentally created a bug... Don't know how the code itselves works.

@amanda.hinchman-dominguez the animation stuff isn't directly related. it may be of use in your drag and drop at the end. I think you saw my checkers example. I finish off the drag and drop with an animation to snap an object into place and also to guide it back to the original spot if the operation is cancelled

I did, I was thinking about maybe modeling fxml drag-and-drop off your solution originally, but I guess I'm now trying to find a better way to implement customizable layout with some kind of javafx tile plugin

today, I'm looking at @edvin's suggestion at Han Solo's JavaFX tiles

if i were building the tiles with my checkers approach, i would define a grid for the users based on typographic standards. For example a 12-col grid or a 16-col grid like in Bootstrap

for the row heights, maybe start with a fixed row and then expand into the rowspanning through a mouse operation

the user drags shapes onto the grid and they can allocate the row/col span they need and optionally drag a corner for more or less spanning

my example also highlights the background drop target when you're hovering a dragged item over it

maybe I can try drag and drop with that first, and then move on to javafx tiles? I want to get something working soon without doing so much extra work but that's slowly becoming harder and harder to figure out how I can avoid such a thing

I might just need to start with what is known and work my way up from there

I'm looking at FXLauncher, I wonder if it's possible to add 2FA to it.

I am using a Drawer to make a tabbed menu, the first item is expanded by default, but it gets unselected when I click on it... Is is possible to disable the unselection?

I need help with how FXLauncher reads the manifest

I have a

javafx.scene.control.TreeView

and i want to add some new

javafx.scene.control.TreeItem<custom data class>

objects to a node when something is clicked... but i'm having trouble working out how to do this some JavaFX answers seem to suggest

myTreeView.children.addAll

but this is private? also tried

myTreeView.edit( new object )

but that didn't seem to do anything (need to force repopulate?) this is more of a JavaFX question in fairness but i'm taking inspiration from https://github.com/edvin/tornadofx-samples/blob/master/treeviews/src/main/kotlin/no/tornado/fxsample/treeviews/DemoTreeViews.kt

Hey guys, regarding using QT with TornadoFX... https://kotlinlang.slack.com/archives/C4W52CFEZ/p1511273741000319

@thomasnield I'm sure they have some downloads that are less restrictive to help with their Qt adoption, but this seems closed for what I think we're trying to do. Subscriptions starting at $295/month

They're offering a lot in terms of mobile.
