I have faced with one problem, for my project I need to use JFXDatePicker, however I can't find it to use, Here only DatePicker is avaiable but I need exactly JFXDatePicker.
Scene Builder: search panel enter image description here
JFXDatePicker is from an external library. Probably from JFoenix. In order to use that in SceneBuilder you have to import that external library in SB. This Adding a custom component to SceneBuilder 2.0 may be helpful.

Right now I use the Eclipse with Scene Builder.
I've built the code using an MVC.
I want to change the Scene Builder but I can't understand if I need to change my controller.
I can't find anywhere the web if it's necessary to change the Controller if a technology is changed (in this case: Scene Builder).
No, you don't have to change anything. SceneBuilder just creates FXML files which you could also create by hand if you like to.
After searching the web and testing myself, I have found out that if you I change the technology, the controller is also has to be change. for example: Switching from Scene Builder to developing to mobile.
I've been trying to use Fontawesomefx in my JavaFX application to enrich my UI design but after downloading the Jar file and uploading it into scene builder, it shows no UI components. When I search in SceneBuilder, I get to use it alright but then I can't use it in my Java code. PS. I've tried multiple versions of Jens fontawesome jars and I'm using Java 10.
Thanks in advance.
change the SceneBuilder with gluon. https://gluonhq.com/products/scene-builder/#download
after that import jar fontawasomefx.
i hope that helps. sorry my english little bad.
I am trying out JavaFX and I used JFoenix library to incorporate material design in the application.
All the other controls I added from JFoenix has the material look, but JFXTreeTableView does not have the material look shown in the project github page. The table looks the same as the default JavaFX TableView.
Following is a screenshot of the JFXTreeTableView in my app.
I have my own stylesheet added to the root node of the scene. It does not seem to have any impact to this issue since when I remove the custom stylesheet, the look of the JFXTreeTableView doesn't change.
Does anyone has any clue why the styles aren't applied?
Within JFoenix Demo application,
custom stylesheet for JFXTreeTableView is contained and applied like this.
scene.getStylesheets().add(TreeTableDemo.class.getResource("/css/jfoenix-components.css").toExternalForm());
Applying to the root node also works.
scene.getRoot().getStylesheets().add(TreeTableDemo.class.getResource("/css/jfoenix-components.css").toExternalForm());
If your way was different, try it out please.
Sorry for such a simple question but I'm finding it hard to believe that I can't actually view the fxml whilst developing a user interface using JavaFX Scenebuilder.
I'd expect that I should be able to write a user interface using the controls as well as being able to directly write the fxml.
How do I view/edit the fxml of my user interface in SceneBuilder without doing the following: -
Saving
Editing with text editor
Re-open with JavaFX Scene Builder
i.e. http://www.webhostingplanguide.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/CoffeeCup-HTML-Editor.jpg
As above, I would like to be able to work on either the FXML or the WYSIWYG front end.
Well for now, there is no such option to view the FXML from the Scene Builder. I can confirm it for Scene Builder 2.0.
Though this can be a great addition to Scene Builder(If not the split screen, just viewing the FXML). You can file a feature request here https://github.com/gluonhq/scenebuilder/issues.
Use IntelliJ Community edition. It has a built in FXML editor that lets you switch between wysiwyg and code.
There actually is a way. Save your file and from the file explorer, open your .fxml file with an IDE, say VSCode
NetBeans for JavaFX I tried, but its really not stable, lot of things getting often changed and also it does not shift with NetBeans nightly builds. Also I am afraid will JavaFX remain or it will be deprecated by Oracle.
So, I was thinking if there is something else which has more advanced way of doing JavaFX UI designing, as an alternative tools of NetBeans for JavaFX.
Question: Is there any good JavaFX gui builders which generates readable code, with less mess?
Thanks in advance.

You can try JavaFX Scene Builder to create visualy your FXML files. FXML files are the "UI" of your application! JavaFX Scene Builder is only for JavaFX 2.0!
Here is the documentation: http://docs.oracle.com/javafx/scenebuilder/1/user_guide/jsbpub-user_guide.htm
