still, a port to slf4j would be nice

there's a way to force jul to slf4j but it'd be nice to avoid that

IIRC that was a design decision because edvin didn't want any extra dependencies on tornadofx

don't forget, JavaFX itself uses Java Logging

Is there any way to create the

Stylesheet

modular? Say I have a core-module and 2 plugin modules. I want to create the final stylesheet by aggregating the stylesheet definitions from crore and other 2 plugin modules. Can it be done by the DSL or do I have to use css file only?

Stylesheets can include other stylesheets.

Stylesheet

has a

vararg

constructor parameter for stylesheets to include.

You can't really do modular pluggable stylesheets yet. That something we've had in mind for an eventual rewrite, and @nekoinemo had even messed around with some ideas, but there isn't a concrete plan yet.

Thanks @Ruckus

I'm struggling to customize a checkbox... it's not working.

@Juan That code doesn't even compile. The checkbox selector is called

checkBox

and the color constants are in

Color

, not

Colors

.

@Juan Then have a look at https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/javafx/api/javafx/scene/doc-files/cssref.html#checkbox for the correct CSS selectors to target

@Juan Highlightfill is only available on TextInputControl subclasses. I think you want to target the text inside the label of the checkbox, right?

You can get to that with

text { textFill =

I suspect you have misunderstood the use of

and

as well. You used it correctly for

and(selected)

, but you just want to target mark and box inside the selected checkbox, so this is my suggestion:

Hi, Is it possible to use the TornadoFX DSL to provide the built node as content for org.controlsfx.control.PopOver? My code looks like:

class MainWorkspace : Workspace(navigationMode = NavigationMode.Tabs) {
...
init {
...
private val popOver: PopOver = PopOver(
            label {
                text = "This allows the configuration of the:"
            }
    ).apply {
        fadeInDuration = Duration.millis(700.0)
        fadeInDuration = Duration.millis(700.0)
    }
…
}

… but the content of the popOver is displayed in the Workspace, which looking at the source code is normal. Moreover, when the content is displayed in the Workspace, somehow, suddenly, the content of the popOver is blank. For such cases and similar should I fallback to vanilla JavaFX. I would like to somehow use the TornadoFX UI DSL type-safe builders but been able to pass another parent of the generated UI. http://fxexperience.com/controlsfx/features/#popover

Another related question, is, is it possible to use the TornadoFX DSL to built a UI for a different pattern? This would allow me to create a reusable UI an place it in whatever container pattern I’d like. Thank you very much in advance for your input

I have a

treeTableVeiw

and I want to apply style to make row borders visible and different background colors to odd and even rows. I can't apply the style sheet to the

App

, and whatever else I do does not seem to work. I supposed that all I needed to do was to create a Stylesheet member and then to add it to

treeTableView

via

addClass

. Does not seem to work.

Style class listing

OK, I managed it. I had to use `stylesheet{}`instead off

style{}

or

addStyle{}

. It is not that obvious.

@edvin The code didn't compile for you because I wasn't using the checkbox selector, I was using a custom

CssClass

, I perfectly understand the use of

and()

, but I was trying a lot of different approaches to find out why it wasn't working, even the code you posted wasn't working either. I found out that I missed adding the stylesheet to my view.🙄😂 Thank you!

I added a

--di-container=classname

command line parameter if you want to configure the di container from the command line. UI coming to the idea plugin as well. Nice when you want to run a View that requires a custom DI container

refactoring-question: is there a reason why parameters.named?.get("di-container") is calculated 3 times at this PR: https://github.com/edvin/tornadofx/commit/4ab6327f812ac9f6185343880dc310860a8983e9

For some reason the size of my login view changes it set preferred size after logging out

@Juan uploaded a file:

@tieskedh "Calculated" 😆 I do see your point though, it would be cleaner to assign it to a variable for sure. It would only be "calculated" twice though.

@edvin i believe you already created the variable, but only used it once. If i'm correct it's the param from let

@tieskedh Haha, you're right. I was up all night, this was not my best work 🙂 Fixing now

For some reason the size of my view changes when I switch to another and go back to the previous one (the loginscreen view)

@tieskedh Thanks a lot for the PR! I merged it now, didn't see any obvious bugs, but of course these subtle bugs are the hardest to track! hehe 🙂
