(its not going well)

Can you set the keybind based on the node's

focusedProperty

status maybe?

@carlw Could you help me with a question?

it also looks ugly when you have tabs in tabs…

Exception in thread "JavaFX Application Thread" kotlin.KotlinNullPointerException at tornadofx.FX$Companion.getPrimaryStage(FX.kt:117)return error

Has anyone ever experienced this?

Ok well I got the points to add properly, but now I am experiencing very strange animating issues. Looks like it's trying to animate to the Y value first and then the X instead of the diagonal between them. I'm not quite sure how TornadoFX does it's animations for adding Data points to a graph (if anyone has any insight on this, would be appreciated!)

First day of TornadoFX and I was able to write a useful app in 3-4 hours. Thanks for this nice framework! https://github.com/jmfayard/skripts/commit/ea768cf981854503956e0ebd11bdff0268a40261

and my tabs are dynamic, so they can get added and removed

I can't get FxLauncher to work on OSX, any hints on how to debug the issue? https://github.com/edvin/fxldemo-gradle/issues/15

Jitpack actually has this really cool feature where if you say, have a project on github, you don't even need to publish anything anywhere. I don't know if it would work for private repositories but it's worth trying out

Hmm, doesn't seem to be working on my computer. Maybe it's a Windows limitation?

Cool - have you had success creating a configuration to be able to attempt a launch?

I'm getting a Kotlin error on the test build that says

Module java.base cannot be found in the module graph

, which I thought might have been a bytecode issue

@Shan does this get you closer? I'm using a StackPane. One of the child vboxes is doing the slight transparency while the other holds the content. The first opacity setting isn't affecting the content like the button in the second vbox()

but it does not show anything, while a BorderPane works. Do you have any idea how I can embed views in a VBox? Thanks!

@alex what are you using for the SDK? Oracle or Corretto?

@alex this is interesting. Do you have insight on why? Is this just an IDE issue?

@amanda.hinchman-dominguez I'm a C#/React web developer by day. I picked the naming style when I realized that the stylesheets were not view specific and wanted to keep classes from clashing 😛. It is something I've seen in CSS to achieve that goal before scope CSS was a thing. What is the Kotlin convention for naming styles? camelCase? When you ask,

What exactly is the style itself?

are you referring to the convention I used, or the style definitions to achieve the image I shared? The following is what I ended up doing with because I couldn't figure out how to align the label 😛

How can I see validation decorators immediately when first opening a form? I can tell that validation is happening because I also have it bound to a button, but the decorators don’t activate until I type into the field

@edvin this time I got a bigger bit of the co/contravariance quickfix: Look at the ItemViewModel<T> class, starting line 550. There are a couple of bind functions, that work directly on properties, like bind(property: KProperty1<T, N?> ... bind(property: KMutableProperty1<T, N> ... bind(property: KMutableProperty1<T, N?> ... and so on. These can benefit from adding the an in modifier to the T parameter could use : if someone makes abstract Viewmodels this makes a lot of sense (I'm doing it right now).

I need to test TornadoFX on 11 soon

Well, from what I understand App() is the singular point of entry in TornadoFX application, so if we define external DI there, we'll be ok. The question is probably - how do we do it, do we provide predefined setup method and offer user to call it in

init {}

or maybe do a class that extends App and offer the user to use that if they want external DI, both have merits, I guess we have to try and see.

@sbyrne and I discovered something interesting for JavaFX and MacOS: if for some weird reason you wish to set your menu bar in the top apple menubar where "java" is, you have to write something like this:

What are good practices for tests when you need to create temporary folder/files?
