Answer 1

if you want to translate local coordinates to scenne coords you can use localToScene method .

 Point2D point2D = node.localToScene(0,0);

for example if you want to know the center of a pane but in scene coordinates

Point2D point2D = pane.localToScene(pane.getWidth()/2,pane.getHeight()/2);
