javafx TabPane setSelection doesn't switch the tab
I want to control the TabPane and switch tabs with a Canvas, basically hide the tab headers and use canvas instead, the canvas displays different "Devices" and when user click on the device, the TabPane switch to show the content of that device.
fun canvasFlow_Click(mouseEvent: MouseEvent) {
val d = flowPresenter.click(mouseEvent)
if (d != null) {
flowPresenter.select(d)
logger.info("switch to ${d.position}")
tab.selectionModel.clearSelection()...
