this is the bug i mentioned earlier

it's actually a lot older than the ticket mentions

how can I move label text to the center? padding works only with box and exact value, haven’t found any info in guide

thanks @carlw

@chickenfresh Here is one way:

-.kt

You could also do the same with CSS

Just be (type) safe 😁

@edvin thanks a lot, actually I’ve tried with styles, but as I understand that’s not the CSS itself and didn’t found any glossary for it. I mean, for example in css centering objects looks like

text-align = center

, how would it look like in there?

-.kt

Text-Align won't do what you want here, but above is the same expressed as a stylesheet.

Then you'd just do

label("Centered").addClass(MyStyles.centeredText)

Oh, first solution looks shorter, and probably for not frequent use is better

@chickenfresh I'd say type safe CSS is always better than inline properties or inline styles 🙂

I compiled a native application using fxlauncher + javapackager, can I make an autorun application when loading windows?

@beepdog Is this example what you were looking for? There's a lock/unlock in the upper right that enables a deletion button on the ListCells. The button will only show for the selected item.

^ The above code snippet also has a JavaFX case statement which changes the label of a toggle button based on its selected state. When/then/otherwise

@carlw yeah that's what I'm trying to do, and interestingly enough, I think it's nearly the exact same thing I've got. So I must have a glitch somewhere in what I'm doing, thanks for the example code!

sure. i'm not crazy about keeping around the reference to the listview for the refresh(). looking into improving that

(it's encapsulated in in the View as a private member so it's not too bad)

I wanna merge a few `model class`es into

sealed class

so I’d be able to use different objects in a same

listview

, each of models have its

id

but I’m unable to reach it with

find

and

removeIf

function. How can I do that? I can show off the code if you need it to understand my question

@chickenfresh I modified this to use a removeIf in the delete function. To test this, run the app and press the upper-right Unlock button. Select an item. Press the - button on the selected item.

@carlw I’m receiving objects from server (parsing from json to data class), you’d offer using

mutableListOf

? I have this for now:

val itemsList = FXCollections.observableArrayList<SingleKindModel>()

thats how my

itemlist

looks like, on selection I’m using this:

curSelectedItem.value = itemsList.find { it.id == itemid }

it works good with this model:

class SingleKindModel(val id: Int) {
    constructor(item: Item) : this(
            item.id)
}

but I wanna use another-kind-models in a same list, so new class looks like this in my case:

sealed class ItemViewInstance {
    data class Item1(val item1: SingleKindModel): ItemViewInstance()
    data class Item2(val item2: SecondKindModel): ItemViewInstance()
}

so

SingleKindModel

in

itemsList

changes to

ItemViewInstance

and

itemsList.find { it.id == itemid }

no longer works

@chickenfresh This is reworked with two different typed items appearing in the list. I'm using a base class.

btw imo tableview will look better with [-] icon in last column

I still dont get why the code looks much different then mine 😞 Its because of unsupported functions I’m trying to implement or just another codestyle?

alignment = Pos.BASELINE_CENTER

didnt put label in center 🧐

this doesn't work? vbox {

label("Hi")
