@sp33dy insteadof instructions.add do tabledata.items.add

@sp33dy ignore my last suggestion - it doesn't work

I agree @Spike Baylor - people here are extremely helpful. I haven't had enough time to follow up everything, and quite franktly we've grown a lot, so I'm so grateful to everybody helping out here!

Anyone have any idea why I get this error:

-.pl

for

-.kt

It just doesn't like the var visible!

AHA! Eclipse isn't finding the two imports on autocompletion! I just needed to add import tornadofx.getValue import tornadofx.setValue

I think your problem is that you are using Eclipse 😉

Look at the positive side: You have clients. 🤗

🙂

fortunately, most of them require my Solution Architect head on. I realise I'm getting too old for programming

it was so much easier with LDA #50 SBC #30 ..... RTS <SOMEWHERE>

The intellij plug in just imports tornadofx.* So you don't have to worry about it

Yes. It is a must (in my experience) to configure the IDE to add a wildcard import for tornadofx

doesn't shift control O work in eclipse @sp33dy?

@jschneider I'm using Eclipse daily at work and I it has some features IDEA lacks. Actually I was very surprised that IDEA (praised Java IDE) don't have even some basic functionality which is available even in Eclipse 3.x (multiproject, management, free pane snapping etc). IDEA has better AST analysis, but I don't know if you can claim it killer feature. Plus refactorings in IDEA are able to break code without possibility to undo (happened several times), which is also unbelievable 🙂 Still it's decent IDE, and Eclipse Kotlin support is somewhat terrible (unlike Java).

I like IntelliJ's maven support better. In a multi module project, Eclipse seems to have a lot of upheaval when I change versions

It works 'occasionally' for me.

If I add the import tornadofx.* myself, CTRL O will then clean up and remove the *

it gets very annoying

there are settings in both eclipse and idea for when to use wildcard imports and when not to. Eclipse i think by default has something like a "use * if there are 5+ imports from the package"

usually for java/work i have it set to never use wildcards. I think i have it setup now so that idea won't automatically use wildcards, but doesn't "fix" them either

ah thanks. I'll go checking the settings shortly

you can set it to always use wildcards for certain packages, or never, etc

I'm looking through issues sitting in TornadoFX, I'm going to attempt to resolve one 🙂 are there any that I ought to look at?

Oh! Actually, I plan on tackling understanding processing in JavaFX today.

I found Edvin's documentation for task handling - it's pretty nice, maybe it should be added to gitbooks as well
