How to hide the controls of HTMLEditor?

Question

is it possible to hide the controls of a HTMLEditor above the actual text? (Alignment, Copy&Paste icons, stylings etc.)

Thanks for any help

If you use unsupported methods, you can customize the toolbars pretty easily.

As Uluk states in his answer, the methods below aren't officially supported.

import java.util.regex.Pattern;
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.scene.*;
import javafx.scene.image.ImageView;
import javafx.scene.web.HTMLEditor;
import javafx.stage.Stage;

public class HTMLEditorSample extends Application {
  public static void main(String[] args) { launch(args); }
  @Override public void start(Stage stage) {
    final HTMLEditor htmlEditor = new HTMLEditor();
    stage.setScene(new Scene(htmlEditor));
    stage.show();

    hideImageNodesMatching(htmlEditor, Pattern.compile(".*(Cut|Copy|Paste).*"), 0);
    Node seperator = htmlEditor.lookup(".separator");
    seperator.setVisible(false); seperator.setManaged(false);
  }

  public void hideImageNodesMatching(Node node, Pattern imageNamePattern, int depth) {
    if (node instanceof ImageView) {
      ImageView imageView = (ImageView) node;
      String url = imageView.getImage().impl_getUrl();
      if (url != null && imageNamePattern.matcher(url).matches()) {
        Node button = imageView.getParent().getParent();
        button.setVisible(false); button.setManaged(false);
      }
    }
    if (node instanceof Parent) 
      for (Node child : ((Parent) node).getChildrenUnmodifiable()) 
        hideImageNodesMatching(child, imageNamePattern, depth + 1);
  }
}
