it just looks bad on ubuntu...the background is gray so it doesn't look polished like the skype and other icons in the unity system tray (works on windows and mac though)

@gtnarg Yeah. I've given up on having a base class implementation with with a property based on

. It is now explicitly declared

as <whatever>Property

@ron unity...last time i looked my system tray problems were specific to unity when they broke the api and replaced "status icon" with their own "app indicator"...was a gtk 2/3 change in think

Are there any default "system icons" in JavaFX, such as an "Ok" and "Cancel" symbol?

carlw

01/28/2017, 6:16 PM

there's something called "ButtonBar" which is supposed to handle platform dependent button order. There isn't the kind of thing in JavaFX like you find in GTK that can pull in system images.

I'm writing a When statement for your number binding problem @permalmberg

permalmberg

01/28/2017, 6:18 PM

@carlw Dynamic type matching you mean?

is

carlw

01/28/2017, 6:18 PM

no, something like this http://bekwam.blogspot.com/2016/03/a-case-statement-for-javafx-binding.html

carlw

01/28/2017, 6:18 PM

it's how i handle empty values in some of my text fields

permalmberg

01/28/2017, 6:22 PM

Ah, a mediator object in between the binding and the backend.

permalmberg

01/28/2017, 6:24 PM

@carlw Don't put too much time into it please 🙂

carlw

01/28/2017, 6:25 PM

@permalmberg I don't mind. I need to code a little Kotlin each week or I'll forget it.

permalmberg

01/28/2017, 6:25 PM

ok 🙂

carlw

01/28/2017, 6:26 PM

i haven't written complex binding statements -- When, or(), isNull() -- in TornadoFX yet

carlw

01/28/2017, 6:26 PM

curious to see how it looks

@edvin pushed a small commit fixing the pom in regards to dokka-maven-plugin

ron

01/28/2017, 6:59 PM

@edvin I will do the window stuff on another branch so the commits stay seperated

permalmberg

01/28/2017, 7:18 PM

@User uploaded a file:

and commented: Hm, how do I prevent my `textfield`from adding thousand separators?

edvin

@ron Thank you Ron. I'm trying to build javadocs using the dokka plugin now 🙂

next week I am in Lisbon for a week, might be more online then usual, wife visiting all the family and friends, me I will be reading and coding

edvin

@permalmberg Use the version of the

textfield

builder that accepts a converter 🙂

edvin

01/28/2017, 7:21 PM

@ron Perfect 🙂

permalmberg

01/28/2017, 7:23 PM

@edvin What? No magic property

showAsPlainNumber

? 🙂

edvin

01/28/2017, 7:23 PM

@permalmberg Hehe.. We could add one of course 🙂

edvin

01/28/2017, 7:24 PM

@permalmberg

textfield(property, NumberStringConverter(pattern))

should do it.

@edvin thanks, reading docs
