In that case, you can just create a TableColumn and set its cell property to show the index.

But how do you do that, that was my entire question to begin with

Have you tried Google? 🙂

Yes, documentation for TornadoFX is sparse, and JavaFX documentation and guides frequently do things in a very non-idiomatic way for both kotlin and TornadoFX

If you know how to do it in plain simple JavaFX, you can always drop that code in here and ask for improvements 🙂

For my earlier recommendation, here is a link which does exactly that, but uses binding - https://stackoverflow.com/a/31213320/1759128

@plebian I'll whip up an example for you 🙂

@edvin uploaded a file: TableView with `makeIndexColumn`

The

makeIndexColumn

starts at 1 by default, so I override

startNumber

and set it to 0 so it reflects the actual index.

@abhinay We have this shiny built in to create index columns 😁

@edvin

Any http server would do, there is no requirement on http features apart from being able to download files

Ok, so if I manually deploy, I could put the files pretty much anywhere. But what if I want to use the deploy step from the plugin? Any free services that I could use for that kind of storage? How does the deploy step upload files to the server?

@poohbar you can make files in your keybase filesystem public. this is free, at least for now. https://keybase.io/docs/kbfs

In a tableview, how do I configure the styling of the selected row?

In type safe css it would be

tableRowCell { 
    and(selected) {
        backgroundColor += Color.RED 
    } 
}

@edvin Nice, I had no idea there was literally a

makeIndexColumn

helper function

@bkenn @s1m0nw1 That can be shortened to

tableRowCell and selected {
    backgroundColor += Color.RED
}

@plebian To be honest, I had to look it up myself 😁

@edvin I can't seem to get FXLauncher to run the

genereateNativeInstaller

thing. I tried it in Maven and was getting "Missing JAVA_HOME" error as if it could not find javapackager at all. In gradle it fails with:

Execution failed for task ':generateNativeInstaller'.
> javapackager exited with status 1

Any idea what I could be doing wrong?

I will try it from Windows tonight, the env variable management on macOS makes no sense to me and brew is garbage so I probably have it set up wrong.

@poohbar I suspect it is as the error message says: Your JAVA_HOME doesn't point correctly and/or you don't have javainstall/bin in your path.

But if I run

javapackager

in the terminal I get the man page, after that I do

mvn install

and I get the error. Weird

@poohbar Then you're missing JAVA_HOME 🙂

nope

poohbar$ echo $JAVA_HOME
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_152.jdk/Contents/Home

try

export JAVA_HOME

in a shell before running

mvn install

@edvin thanks I will try it out 🙂

I'd like to style my table rows depending on a certain boolean value that is shown in a column. My current solution looks like this:

style {
    tableRow?.style {
        backgroundColor += ...
    }
}

Is there another, better, way? I currently have problems styling these rows with the

selected

class, since the background color isn't correctly changed anymore when selected. Thanks for any hint

Is there a reason that

navigateForward()

is private and

navigateBack()

is public in

Workspace

?

I tried to copy a json model with a nested json model, but keeps counted the nested part as null for some reason.. any ideas?

@amanda.hinchman-dominguez uploaded a file: nested jsonmodel

looks like you have an error in your copy/paste
