Taken from http://werner.yellowcouch.org/log/resizable-javafx-canvas/: To make a JavaFx canvas resizable all that needs to be done is override the min/pref/max methods. Make it resizable and implement the resize method.

With this method no width/height listeners are necessary to trigger a redraw. It is also no longer necessary to bind the size of the width and height to the container.

public class ResizableCanvas extends Canvas {

@Override
public double minHeight(double width)
{
    return 64;
}

@Override
public double maxHeight(double width)
{
    return 1000;
}

@Override
public double prefHeight(double width)
{
    return minHeight(width);
}

@Override
public double minWidth(double height)
{
    return 0;
}

@Override
public double maxWidth(double height)
{
    return 10000;
}

@Override
public boolean isResizable()
{
    return true;
}

@Override
public void resize(double width, double height)
{
    super.setWidth(width);
    super.setHeight(height);
    
}
