I need to create a view model which will contains observable properties for id and name and as well as some derived properties like list of person etc, which can be filled in later in some service class

So how do I create PersonModel from Person class?

@anidotnet Place your cursor on

Person

and hit Alt+Enter -> "Generate ViewModel". That will generate a ViewModel that can encapsulate an underlying

Person

thanks @edvin..

@anidotnet I suggest to use the structure generated by that IDE function, as it will allow you to use the viewmodel with or without an underlying Person model, and it also gives you validation and decoration 🙂

@edvin I want to inject a view2 into view1 and want to view2 in exact center on screen of view1. Is there any way to do this?

@anujkrvaish If View1 has a container that centers it's content, like a StackPane for example, you could just do

add<View2>()

What do you mean by "messed up"? If it's distorted, I think this is caused by different OSs needing different image sizes.

this old post might help. it has a section on autosize, but what you probably want is to specify the tray icon sizes for each OS http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/articles/javase/systemtray-139788.html

@carlw I think I remember something about format differences between the platforms as well (trayicon). PNG works for Mac and not on Windows or something like that.

i couldn't find a reference, but i think it's something like Windows=16x16, Mac=22x22 (retina) 18x18 (non-retina), Ubuntu Gnome=24x24. That's the gist of why auto image size is needed ~~(those #s aren't correctly; they're just off the top of my head)~~

all sizes work on different platforms, but the format does not. in keepass I have a switch that uses a .ico icon and .png for all others

edvin

01/04/2018, 6:32 PM

@ron That's right! And there is a similar difference for the application icon when you use javapackager, right?

ron

01/04/2018, 6:32 PM

I used the same file for the javapackager but never got it to work well

ron

01/04/2018, 6:33 PM

I should pick up keepassFX again, but I have to redo most of the model to make it completely javafx

@jchildress I think you can search old messages if you have a paid version

jchildress

01/04/2018, 6:54 PM

Agree... dumb question though... "we" can't control that right? Jetbrains does?

ron

01/04/2018, 6:54 PM

true that @jchildress

I thought about buying a license, but it's kind of nice to hang out here with JetBrains as well 🙂

on linux, when I pin my app to my launcher, i see the png, but when the app is running, it turns into a java symbol. any ideas why that happens?

wakingrufus

01/04/2018, 7:58 PM

im guessing a javafx issue, not tornado

edvin

By app icon, I mean the icon supplied by the binary, .ie the java launcher
