How to draw line between two nodes placed in different Panes / Regions

问题

I am tryin to draw a genealogy tree. In my tree, I store information about ex partners. So the Panel (Region) for person shoud looking like this

Z * * * Z * * * Z * * * X --- Y

Where Z represent exPartner, X represent Persion and Y represent current Wife / Husband

And now I would like to draw line to connect current relation with children. And ec relations with children. (graphicaly there will be a line beetwen Z and *)

But when the person is in the other region LayoutX and LayoutX property return relative value. How Can I do that, and how dynamicaly resize this Panel ? I would like that Z should be allways at middle of line Horizontal line connecting children.

Given any node, you can get its bounds in the coordinate system of any other node in the same scene graph with:

Node nodeOfInterest = ... ;
Node anotherNode = ... ;

// ...

Bounds boundsInScene = nodeOfInterest.localToScene(nodeOfInterest.getBoundsInLocal());
Bounds boundRelativeToAnotherNode = anotherNode.sceneToLocal(boundsInScene);

So assuming you have some kind of pane which is a common ancestor to two nodes you want to connect, you can do this:

Pane commonAncestor = ... ;
Node n1 = ... ;
Node n2 = ... ;

Bounds n1InCommonAncestor = getRelativeBounds(n1, commonAncestor);
Bounds n2InCommonAncestor = getRelativeBounds(n2, commonAncestor);
Point2D n1Center = getCenter(n1InCommonAncestor);
Point2D n2Center = getCenter(n2InCommonAncestor);

Line connector = new Line(n1Center.getX(), n1Center.getY(), n2Center.getX(), n2Center.getY());
commonAncestor.getChildren().add(connector);

// ...

private Bounds getRelativeBounds(Node node, Node relativeTo) {
    Bounds nodeBoundsInScene = node.localToScene(node.getBoundsInLocal());
    return relativeTo.sceneToLocal(nodeBoundsInScene);
}

private Point2D getCenter(Bounds b) {
    return new Point2D(b.getMinX() + b.getWidth() / 2, b.getMinY() + b.getHeight() / 2);
}
