ScalaFX-Extras v.0.6/0.7 released

[Jarek]

The main new functionality is around easy creation of dialogs.

The GenericDialogFX helps quickly build a dialog and then read user inputs:

// Create a dialog
val dialog =
  new GenericDialogFX(
    title = "GenericDialogFX Demo",
    header = "Fancy description can go here."
  ) {
    // Add fields
    addCheckbox("Check me out!", defaultValue = false)
    addCheckbox("Check me too!", defaultValue = true)
  }

// Show dialog to the user
dialog.showDialog()

// Read input provided by the user
if (dialog.wasOKed) {
  val select1 = dialog.nextBoolean()
  val select2 = dialog.nextBoolean()

  println(s"Selection 1: $select1")
  println(s"Selection 2: $select2")
} else {
  println("Dialog was cancelled.")
}

The AutoDialog class can generate dialog for case class and read user inputs into a new case class object:

case class FilterOptions(kernelSize: Int = 7,
                         start: Double = 3.14,
                         tag: String = "alpha",
                         debugMode: Boolean = false)

val result: Option[FilterOptions] =
  new AutoDialog(FilterOptions())
    .showDialog(
      "AutoDialog Demo",
      "Fields are auto generated from `FilterOptions` object")

println(s"Result: $result")
