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

Answer 1

I've made some functions to modify the HTML-Editor (to get a minimalistic version of it), maybe someone else might want to use it too.

The Code:

import javafx.application.*;
import javafx.scene.*;
import javafx.scene.control.*;
import javafx.scene.web.HTMLEditor;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
import javafx.scene.layout.GridPane;
import javafx.scene.layout.Pane;
import com.sun.javafx.scene.web.skin.PopupButton;

public class HTMLEditorModifyer 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.setWidth(300);
        stage.setHeight(200);
        stage.show();

        addCustomToolBarTo(htmlEditor);

        printChildren(htmlEditor, 20);

        moveFromTo(htmlEditor, "PopupButton", 0, "ToolBar", 2);
        moveFromTo(htmlEditor, "PopupButton", 1, "ToolBar", 2);

        moveFromTo(htmlEditor, "Separator", 4, "ToolBar", 2);
        moveFromTo(htmlEditor, "ComboBox", 2, "ToolBar", 2);
        moveFromTo(htmlEditor, "Separator", 5, "ToolBar", 2);

        moveFromTo(htmlEditor, "ToggleButton", 6, "ToolBar", 2);
        moveFromTo(htmlEditor, "ToggleButton", 7, "ToolBar", 2);
        moveFromTo(htmlEditor, "ToggleButton", 8, "ToolBar", 2);

        removeFrom(htmlEditor, "ToolBar", 1);
        removeFrom(htmlEditor, "ToolBar", 0);

        //printChildren(htmlEditor, 20);

      }

      public void moveFromTo(HTMLEditor he, String t, int c, String t2, int c2)
      {
          Node nCb = new Button(); //just has to be sth.  

          //Copy From:
