Sample JavaFX app with 1080p resolution on 14" display. Text looks a bit too small. Is there a way to apply a UI scaling factor of 1.2?

Ali, just override 'stop' function in stage

class MyApp : App(MyView::class) {
    override fun start(stage: Stage) {
... some custom code
    }
    override fun stop() {
      if(db_still_up) {
         notify_warn("can't exit right now")
       } else {
        Platform.exit()
        System.exit(0)
      }
    }
}

What is the most straightforward way to apply a UI scale of 1.2 for the entire JavaFX application?

it doesn’t seem to like the javafx modules being loaded, but I’m not entirely sure why the KotlinCoreEnvironment for parsing files is trying to use javafx modules?

This solution work for me, but I don't know if this is the best way to do it, or there is more elegant way???

Figured it out. openJDK11, openJFX11 is not ready to play with KotlinScripting

downloading ZuluJDK8 saved my life after downgrading Gradle and Kotlin lol

Applying this stylesheet at the application level sorts out text scaling (on a 14" display with a 1080p resolution) but is far from ideal:

import tornadofx.Dimension
import tornadofx.Dimension.LinearUnits
import tornadofx.Stylesheet

class AppStyle : Stylesheet() {
    init {
        s(".root") {
            fontSize = Dimension(1.3, LinearUnits.em)
            fontFamily = "Noto Sans"
        }
    }
}

How is concurrency handled with TornadoFX? There doesn't appear to be anything about concurrency in the TornadoFX Guide ( https://edvin.gitbooks.io/tornadofx-guide ). The TornadoFX Wiki has a page on concurrency ( https://github.com/edvin/tornadofx/wiki/Async-Task-Execution ) but is it still relevant?

I'm thinking of writing a JUnit 5 extension for TornadoFX in the spirit of TestFX's ApplicationExtension to make it a bit easier to cleanly set up and tear down test apps. Would that be of interest to anyone?

@Carlton Whitehead It's even worse than that:

SwiftUI requires iOS 13, watchOS 6, tvOS 13, or macOS Catalina. To use the SwiftUI design canvas Xcode 11 must running on macOS Catalina.

@napperley If its important to you, backport the fix and build OpenJFX yourself 😉

Is there a sample available where JFreeChart is used with TornadoFX?

Good morning everyone! I'd like to know how to add an icon to the GUI, in other words the window that's opened after running the program. (I have no experience whit JavaFX).

Hey all, btw we forgot to let you know but we released our Kafka GUI desktop tool all built using TornadoFX: https://conduktor.io And here's the twitter if you want to see some screenshots https://twitter.com/getconduktor

Sorry, I haven't been using Kotlin for a while, can you tell me, please, what is the actual version of JFX/Java shall I use now to build TornadoFX applications?

Hello Is there some good library for work with maps in javafx or tornadofx?

What is the way to handle a close event for a Dialog? Tried setting

primaryStage.onCloseRequest

however the onCloseRequest event is being ignored.

Hi guys. I have added tableView to a fieldset. Any way to configure the layout for the table? I want to grow it vertically...

Hey guys. Another question: I want to sort the content of a tableview by default. I want to use the first column comparator. Any ideas?

Can someone explain me how to use zulufx? I am trying to build a tornadofx app, but I can't compile it due to "missing dependencies in the classpath" (javafx one of course). It seems like intellij idea is ignoring the kotlinOptions.jvmTarget="1.8"... Don't know what to do.

Hey, has anyone worked with JavaFX/TornadoFX for surface pro?

Is it possible to but a button in the header of a

TableView

?

We are starting to really need 2.0 release. Maintaining JDK8 projects becomes more and more tiresome. And in some cases we need JLink and it is becomes really complicated to work around non-working parts. Are there any ideas when 2.0 will be available?

fxlauncher question here (hope that's Ok under tornadofx...): I want to use fxlauncher to drive javapackager and create an installer; but I don't want to have updates hosted at a particular URL, at least not during development. However, fxlauncher appears to be so focused on its update function that the Url is mandatory: plugin refuses to run without an applicationUrl. Can I turn off the update part of it?

I have a column in a tableview where I would like to set the text-alignment to "right". I tried this but the text ist still left-aligned:

readonlyColumn("Preis", ArticleDTO::money).cellFormat {
                                text = it
                                tableColumn.isSortable = false
                                style {
                                    fontFamily = "monospace"
                                    textAlignment = TextAlignment.RIGHT
                                }
                            }

Am I doing something wrong? I wonder because the rest (fontFamily) works..

Hey folks. I've had a stack overflow question out for a while, I'm wondering if any of you have answers. The short summary: I have a ViewModel whose underlying domain object has a field of MutableList. I don't seem to be able to bind that such that the list contents change when the item changes, unless I make the underlying domain object an ObservableList, which is not something I want to do in this setting. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/56696408/bind-itemviewmodel-to-domain-class-list

My tornadoFx client consumes an api with json results, literally every model has a SimpleListProperty<datatype>() in it. Here is an example:

data class rule(val name: String, val def: String)
class ruleBook{
    val rulesProperty = SimpleListProperty<rule>()
    var rules by rulesProperty
}
class RuleBookVM: ItemViewModel<ruleBook>() {
    val rules = bind(ruleBook::rulesProperty)
}

class TestView : View("Test View") {
    val myRuleBook: RuleBookVM by inject()
    init {
        myRuleBook.rules.value.add(rule("hoge", "fuga"))
    }
    val name = textfield()
    val definition = textfield()
    override val root = vbox{
        label("Test")
        add(name)
        add(definition)
        button("Add a rule").action{
            myRuleBook.rules.value.add(rule(name.text, definition.text))
        }
        tableview(myRuleBook.rules) {
            column("name", rule::name)
            column("def", rule::def)
        }
    }
}

Hello, I have faced the problem that TornadoFX currently is not fully support work with Java > 8. Unfortunatelly, I have a few things which I may have only using Java 11 + JavaFX 12. Do anybody tried to use it together? Which problems was found and how they can be solved?
