@thomasnield Ah, so you want to enable the textfield only when you doubleclick the cell, and then revert when the cell looses focus?

@User uploaded a file: Label when not editing, selectable TextField when editing

@thomasnield This latest suggestion needs a new fix I added to cellFormat, namely unbinding the graphicProperty before assignment.

@User uploaded a file: Selectable textfield on edit

@thomasnield Let me know if this is not what you had in mind. I also wonder if you always/mostly select all the text or just parts?

@thomasnield Also, do you have time to add the collection helpers today? I'm ready for release 🙂

(Sorry, I know you're busy these days)

That's perfect! Let me show my colleague. Sorry, I totally missed that on my to-do list. I'm picking up my car this afternoon so if you beat me please go right ahead

@thomasnield I can't find the collection helpers! Can you point me to them if you don't have the time to integrate? I think the bottom of

Lib.kt

is a good place to put them.

@thomasnield May I interest you in another alternative? This one doesn't require entering edit mode:

@User uploaded a file: Select text in tablecell directly

@User uploaded a file: Code for directly selectable table cell

I just thought of a way to make

cellFormat

much less resource hungry. Basically, for many cells you don't need to recreate the nodes on each

updateItem

call. For this example here, we only need to set the graphic once, and never touch it again. This can be achieved by only creating a new textfield if

graphic

is null.

@User uploaded a file: Only assign one textfield per cell

Now I'm wondering if we could write this declaratively somehow...

I came up with this little addition:

@User uploaded a file: Untitled

So the code above can now be written like:

@User uploaded a file: Untitled

Can anybody dream up a better function name than

assignIfNull

?

@edvin you want the dmg file here?

assignWhenNull

?

@edvin I'll add them tonight. They are in one of my GitHub projects. I'll take a look at cell selection too

@ron

when

might imply that it will be assigned to that value whenever it becomes null, while

if

implies it will only happen if that is the case right now IMO.

@thomasnield Sweet! I'll do the release when I wake up tomorrow then 🙂

you might have a point

where do you want the dmg file?

just upload it here?

@ron Oh, thank you 🙂 Does it fit here? Maybe there's a size limit. Give it a go, if not I'll create a repo for it.

rofl I can also give you a dropbox link 🙂
