Custom Components

[Hoby]

Hi,

Is it possible to use fx:root tag in fxml. I use fx:root tag to create custom components.

Thanks
Hoby

Hi,
can you explain this with a small example? I don't exactly know what you mean.

[Hoby]

Here is an example to create and use a custom component 

test.fxml

<fx:root type="javafx.scene.layout.StackPane">

<children>

        <Label  text="Name" />

<TextField fx:id="nameTextField" />

        </children>

</fx:root>

The Java Presenter

public class TestPane extends StackPane implements Initializable {

@FXML TextField nameTextField;

public Test() {

FxmlLoader.load(this.getClass().getResource("test.fxml"));

}

(...)

}

And I can use the new component TestPane 

test-use.fxml

<fx:root type="javafx.scene.layout.StackPane">

(...)

      <TestPane fx:id="myTestPane" />

(...)

</fx:root>

Hi,

you want to define a page in a flow as a custom component? Or do you want to add a custom control that is defined by an additional vxml with fx:root tag in a datafx managed view?

Hi,

Thanks for your response.

I wanted to add a custom control that is defined by an additional vxml with fx:root tag in a datafx managed view but I did it otherwise. I used <fx:include> tag. Now I have an other problem with nested controllers.

How can I access include controller in main controller as shown here

Hi,

I never tried this :)

I will check this and look what we can do to support nested controllers.
