fxml

I am new to FXML and I am trying to create a handler for all of the button clicks using a switch . However, in order to do so, I need to get the elements using and id. I have tried the following but for some reason (maybe because I am doing it in the controller class and not on the main) I get a stack overflow exception. public class ViewController { public Button exitBtn; public ViewController() throws IOException { Parent root = FXMLLoader.load(getClass().getResource("mainWindow.fxml")); Scene scene = new Scene(root); exitBtn = (Button) scene.lookup("#exitBtn"); } } So how will I get an

It seems wired to ask this, I would think that using FXML to write our custom components is the obviously the right way to go. But as we can see from ControlsFX, JFXextras and even the book 'Mastering JavaFX8 controls do not use or mention the use of FXML in custom controls. Despite that, the official documentation to say to go on that route, and create JavaFX controls via FXML. What is the more correct way and why ? There are two kinds of custom controls in JavaFX: fx:root based custom controls : These custom controls are styleable (support CSS), but are not skinnable. If you're an

how can i catch the selected value of a fxml combobox and implement it into a javafx class? i gave the combobox the fx:id "sample" and created a button with onAction="#test" and tried .getValue and .getPromptText. @FXML private ComboBox<String> Sample; @FXML protected void test( ActionEvent event ) { String output = (String) Sample.getValue(); System.out.println(output); String output = (String) Sample.getPromptText(); System.out.println(output); } If i try to run it i get an error: java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException at javafx.fxml.FXMLLoader

i'm working on a personal project which includes a .fxml document(created from a .svg file with NetBeans). Here is the Map as you can see.Moreover, all the regions are converted into a SVG Path in .fxml file. The thing is i can handle with mouse events with using JavaFX Scene Builder with a controller class however, i want to refill (or in other words repaint or highlight ) the region whenever mouse is entered on it. Here is main class public class JavaFXApplication1 extends Application { @Override public void start(Stage primaryStage) throws IOException { Parent root = FXMLLoader.load

I´m working on a Scala/JavaFX project with IntelliJ and a plugin for scala. The typical way in Java to access elements of your fxml-file is to set an id for each element you want to access and then in your controllerclass declare a variable like "@FXML private Label mylabelid;". In Scala it works almost the same way as you can see in my source code. BUT i get a NullPointerException in line 73 (marked with a PROBLEM-comment). This is the only label, which is just set to null. I tried diffrent things. Every single element is getting set as expected apart from missingInputLabel. LoginView.fxml: <

I want to load fxml files from an absolute path or a path outside of my jar system. background: it will be a simple plugin-system that look's in the plugin folder for all fxml files (later jar files) and include it automatically in a TabPane. String fxmlpath = "C:\\plugin\\pluginfxml.fxml"; try { Parent root = FXMLLoader.load(getClass().getResource(fxmlpath)); //Load root in Tabpane and so on ... } It should be simple: Parent root = FXMLLoader.load(Paths.get(fxmlpath).toUri().toURL()); FXMLLoader takes in a URL as its argument, so we just use the NIO Paths class to get the Path, then convert
