I'm trying to run a simple JavaFX app in eclipse using java 1.8 (I don't have the option to use newer java version), my simple controller:
import javafx.fxml.FXML;
import javafx.event.ActionEvent;
import javafx.scene.canvas.Canvas;
import javafx.scene.canvas.GraphicsContext;
public class MyController {
#FXML private Canvas can;
#FXML
void buttonPressed(ActionEvent event) {
}
}
and main
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.fxml.FXMLLoader;
import javafx.scene.Parent;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
public class MyApp extends Application {
#Override
public void start(Stage stage) throws Exception {
Parent root = FXMLLoader.load(getClass().getResource("MyFxml.fxml"));
Scene scene = new Scene(root);
stage.setTitle("MyApp");
stage.setScene(scene);
stage.show();
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
launch(args);
}
}
my fxml file
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?import javafx.scene.canvas.Canvas?>
<?import javafx.scene.control.Button?>
<?import javafx.scene.control.ToolBar?>
<?import javafx.scene.layout.BorderPane?>
<BoarderPane maxHeight="-Infinity" maxWidth="-Infinity" minHeight="-Infinity" minWidth="-Infinity" xmlns="http://javafx.com/javafx/8.0.171" xmlns:fx="http://javafx.com/fxml/1" fx:controller=MyController">
<top>
<ToolBar prefHeight="40.0" prefwidth="200.0" BorderPane.alignment="CENTER">
<items>
<Button mnemonicParsing="false" onAction="#buttonPressed" text="Press" />
</item>
</ToolBar>
</top>
<center>
<Canvas fx:id="can" height="300.0" width="300.0" BorderPane.alignment="CENTER" />
</center>
</BorderPane>
every time I try to run this I get
Error: JavaFX runtime components are missing, and are required to run this application
I have already added both jfxrt.jar and jfxswt.jar to a library and add it to the project and I've added permissions to javafx in the JRE but I keep getting this exception

I've developed an application using JavaFX that, in part, uses a WebView. However, I've noticed that when either by the user or programmatically via JS, the WebView is scrolled to the bottom or just near the bottom, strange things seem to happen. I am specifically hoping for some way to stop this behavior, and still need to allow scrolling in both senses. It's similar to this question but they are not the same. The rest of my post explains what is happening.
If you scroll to the bottom and resize the window to be larger than previously and hover over other JavaFX controls in the window, they become white boxes.
To illustrate, suppose you have the following window:
Scroll to the bottom and resize the window to be larger than previously and then hover over the JavaFX button and TextBox, who both disappear when you do so:
This happens on at least Windows 10 with Java8u111 and Java8u51. I've made an example to demonstrate this:
example.Main.java
package example;
import java.io.IOException;
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.fxml.FXMLLoader;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.layout.BorderPane;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
public class Main extends Application {
#Override
public void start(Stage primaryStage) throws IOException {
FXMLLoader loader = new FXMLLoader();
loader.setLocation(Main.class.getResource("Example.fxml"));
BorderPane rootWindow = (BorderPane) loader.load();
Scene scene = new Scene(rootWindow);
primaryStage.setScene(scene);
primaryStage.show();
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
launch(args);
}
}
example.ExampleController.java
package example;
import javafx.concurrent.Worker;
import javafx.fxml.FXML;
import javafx.scene.web.WebEngine;
import javafx.scene.web.WebView;
public class ExampleController {
#FXML private WebView webView;
#FXML
private void initialize() {
WebEngine engine = webView.getEngine();
engine.load("https://stackoverflow.com");
engine.getLoadWorker().stateProperty().addListener( (o, oldVal, newVal) -> {
if (newVal == Worker.State.SUCCEEDED) {
engine.executeScript("window.scrollTo(0, document.body.scrollHeight);");
}
});
}
}

Is there a way I can stop this from happening or at least mitigate it?
I also encountered the same problem, and I found a solution:
Add a parameter to jvm:-Dprism.order=sw
see:https://news.kynosarges.org/2016/04/09/javafx-and-java_tool_options/?tdsourcetag=s_pctim_aiomsg
Well, my question is simple.
I am building an application with Java Fx, and I have a TabPane.
When I open a new Tab, that Tab gets it's content by a fxml file.
tab.setContent((Node)FXMLLoader.load(this.getClass().getResource("/main/textEditor.fxml")))
Fine, that works well, it always loads the same file on all Tabs, so, all textarea on all tabs have the same id.
The problem is, with java, I can only get the information of the textarea of the first Tab.
How can i edit specifically the textarea of one tab in particular?
An example of what i want to do :
Main
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.fxml.FXMLLoader;
import javafx.geometry.Rectangle2D;
import javafx.scene.Parent;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.stage.Screen;

Application.launch(Main.class, args);
}
#Override
public void start(Stage stage) throws Exception {
Parent root = FXMLLoader.load(getClass().getResource("/tabPane/test.fxml"));
Screen screen = Screen.getPrimary();
Rectangle2D bounds = screen.getVisualBounds();
stage.setScene(new Scene(root));
stage.show();
}
}

controller.java
import java.net.URL;
import java.util.ResourceBundle;
import javafx.event.ActionEvent;
import javafx.fxml.FXML;
import javafx.fxml.Initializable;
import javafx.scene.control.TextArea;
public class controller implements Initializable{
#FXML
private TextArea textarea;
#Override
public void initialize(URL arg0, ResourceBundle arg1) {
}
public void test(ActionEvent event){
textarea.appendText("Text");
}
}
There are two tabs on this example, when the button is pressed, I want to add the text on the current selected tab.
There are a few different ways to do this. One way is to let the controller for the tab content expose the textProperty from the text area. Then in your "main controller", create a StringProperty field. When you create a new tab, just observe its selected property and update the string property field to point to the one from the current controller. Then you can easily load text into the "current" pane.
Here's a simple example of this:
EditorController:
import javafx.beans.property.StringProperty;
import javafx.fxml.FXML;
import javafx.scene.control.TextArea;
public class EditorController {
#FXML
private TextArea textArea ;
public StringProperty textProperty() {
return textArea.textProperty() ;
}
}
with textEditor.fxml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?import javafx.scene.layout.BorderPane?>
<?import javafx.scene.control.TextArea?>
<BorderPane xmlns:fx="http://javafx.com/fxml/1" fx:controller="EditorController">
<center>
<TextArea fx:id="textArea"/>
</center>
</BorderPane>
And then the MainController could look like:
import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.nio.file.Files;
import java.nio.file.Path;
import javafx.beans.property.StringProperty;
import javafx.fxml.FXML;
import javafx.fxml.FXMLLoader;
import javafx.scene.control.Alert;
import javafx.scene.control.Alert.AlertType;
import javafx.scene.control.Tab;
import javafx.scene.control.TabPane;
import javafx.stage.FileChooser;
public class MainController {
#FXML
private TabPane tabPane ;
private StringProperty currentText ;
public void initialize() throws IOException {
// load an initial tab:
newTab();
}
#FXML
private void newTab() throws IOException {
Tab tab = new Tab("Untitled text");
FXMLLoader loader = new FXMLLoader(getClass().getResource("textEditor.fxml"));
tab.setContent(loader.load());
EditorController controller = loader.getController() ;
tab.selectedProperty().addListener((obs, wasSelected, isNowSelected) -> {
if (isNowSelected) {
currentText = controller.textProperty();
}
});
tabPane.getTabs().add(tab);
tabPane.getSelectionModel().select(tab);
}
#FXML
private void load() {
FileChooser chooser = new FileChooser();
File file = chooser.showOpenDialog(tabPane.getScene().getWindow());
if (file != null) {
Path path = file.toPath();
try {
currentText.set(String.join("\n", Files.readAllLines(path)));
} catch (IOException e) {
Alert alert = new Alert(AlertType.ERROR);
alert.setContentText("Unable to load file "+path);
alert.setTitle("Load error");
alert.showAndWait();
}
tabPane.getSelectionModel().getSelectedItem().setText(path.getFileName().toString());
}
}
}
with main.fxml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?import javafx.scene.layout.BorderPane?>
<?import javafx.scene.layout.HBox?>
<?import javafx.scene.control.TabPane?>
<?import javafx.scene.control.Button?>
<?import javafx.geometry.Insets?>
<BorderPane xmlns:fx="http://javafx.com/fxml/1" fx:controller="MainController">
<center>
<TabPane fx:id="tabPane"/>
</center>
<bottom>
<HBox alignment="CENTER" spacing="5">
<padding>
<Insets top="5" right="5" left="5" bottom="5" />
</padding>
<Button text="Load..." onAction="#load" />
<Button text="New" onAction="#newTab"/>
</HBox>
</bottom>
</BorderPane>
For completeness, a simple application class:
import java.io.IOException;
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.fxml.FXMLLoader;
import javafx.scene.Parent;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
public class Main extends Application {
#Override
public void start(Stage primaryStage) throws IOException {
Parent root = FXMLLoader.load(getClass().getResource("main.fxml"));
Scene scene = new Scene(root, 800, 800);
primaryStage.setScene(scene);
primaryStage.show();
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
launch(args);
}
}
There are other approaches, e.g. you could just change the button's onAction property when the tab selection changes, etc.
I am learning to write FXML custom components for use with JavaFX 8 and Scene Builder.
I wrote the FXML file shown below but Scene Builder will not open it, giving me the message "Open operation has failed" due to the exception:
java.io.IOException: javafx.fxml.LoadException: mycustomcomponent.TicoTeco is not a valid type.
/C:/Users/xxxxx/Documents/NetBeansProjects/MyCustomComponent/src/mycustomcomponent/TicoTeco.fxml:9

at com.oracle.javafx.scenebuilder.kit.fxom.FXOMDocument.(FXOMDocument.java:80)
at com.oracle.javafx.scenebuilder.kit.fxom.FXOMDocument.(FXOMDocument.java:95)
...
Why am I getting this exception?
Here's the FXML file:
<?import java.lang.*?>
<?import java.util.*?>
<?import javafx.scene.*?>
<?import javafx.scene.control.*?>
<?import javafx.scene.layout.*?>
<fx:root type="mycustomcomponent.TicoTeco" prefHeight="93.0" prefWidth="304.0" xmlns="http://javafx.com/javafx/8" xmlns:fx="http://javafx.com/fxml/1">
<children>
<BorderPane layoutX="61.0" prefHeight="115.0" prefWidth="200.0">
<left>
<Button fx:id="tico" mnemonicParsing="false" text="Tico" BorderPane.alignment="CENTER" />
</left>
<right>
<Button fx:id="teco" mnemonicParsing="false" text="Teco" BorderPane.alignment="CENTER" />
</right>
</BorderPane>
</children>
</fx:root>
And here are the Java files for TicoTeco.java and Main.java:
package mycustomcomponent;
import java.io.IOException;
import javafx.event.ActionEvent;
import javafx.event.EventHandler;
import javafx.fxml.FXML;
import javafx.fxml.FXMLLoader;
import javafx.scene.control.Button;
import javafx.scene.layout.AnchorPane;
public class TicoTeco extends AnchorPane {
#FXML
Button tico;
#FXML
Button teco;
public TicoTeco() throws IOException {
FXMLLoader fxmlLoader = new FXMLLoader(TicoTeco.class.getResource("TicoTeco.fxml"));
fxmlLoader.setRoot(this);
fxmlLoader.setController(this);
fxmlLoader.load();
}
#FXML
public void initialize() {
final EventHandler<ActionEvent> onAction =
event -> System.out.println("Hi, I'm " + (event.getSource() == tico? "Tico" : "Teco") + "!");
tico.setOnAction(onAction);
teco.setOnAction(onAction);
}
}
package mycustomcomponent;
import java.io.IOException;
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.event.ActionEvent;
import javafx.event.EventHandler;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.control.Button;
import javafx.scene.layout.StackPane;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
public class Main extends Application {
#Override
public void start(Stage primaryStage) throws IOException {
Scene scene = new Scene(new TicoTeco());
primaryStage.setTitle("Here are Tico and Teco!");
primaryStage.setScene(scene);
primaryStage.show();
}
/**
* #param args the command line arguments
*/
public static void main(String[] args) {
launch(args);
}
}
It's a bit tricky. So your fxml have a little mistake:
Your custom class is extending AnchorPane, so this should be the root in your fxml:
<?import java.lang.*?>
<?import java.util.*?>
<?import javafx.scene.*?>
<?import javafx.scene.control.*?>
<?import javafx.scene.layout.*?>
<fx:root type="AnchorPane" prefHeight="93.0" prefWidth="304.0" xmlns="http://javafx.com/javafx/8" xmlns:fx="http://javafx.com/fxml/1">
<children>
<BorderPane layoutX="61.0" prefHeight="115.0" prefWidth="200.0">
<left>
<Button fx:id="tico" mnemonicParsing="false" text="Tico" BorderPane.alignment="CENTER" />
</left>
<right>
<Button fx:id="teco" mnemonicParsing="false" text="Teco" BorderPane.alignment="CENTER" />
</right>
</BorderPane>
</children>
</fx:root>
After that, you have to make a jar of it, because you have a fxml and a java class. This is the tricky part in Netbeans, so follow up:
First: Create an own Library Project for the component that looks like this with your copied source files:
Second: Delete the copied Main (where the main method is in) file
Third: Do a "Clean and Build" at the project. The generated .jar file will be in the subfolder "dist" in your Project directory.
Fourth: Open Scene Builder and import your CustomComponent .jar file like this:
Now you are able to use the component as you want. But be aware of changes to the component are not dynamicaly refresh the imported jar, you have to do the whole thing again.
I am not sure how to or even if it is possible to select text fields in code. I could not find anything on the subject. If the is indeed a way to do so i have a template that could be modified to demonstrate how this could be done.
Here is the template/sample code:
Main class:
package application;
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.fxml.FXMLLoader;
import javafx.scene.Parent;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
public class Main extends Application {
public void start(Stage primaryStage) {
try {
Parent root = FXMLLoader.load(getClass().getResource("/fxml/Main.fxml"));
Scene scene = new Scene(root,600,400);
scene.getStylesheets().add(getClass().getResource("application.css").toExternalForm());
primaryStage.setScene(scene);
primaryStage.setTitle("Test");
primaryStage.show();
} catch(Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
launch(args);
}
}
MainControl class:
package application;
import java.net.URL;
import java.util.ResourceBundle;
import javafx.event.ActionEvent;
import javafx.fxml.FXML;
import javafx.fxml.Initializable;
import javafx.scene.control.Button;
import javafx.scene.control.TextField;
public class MainControl implements Initializable {
#FXML
Button button;
#FXML
TextField field1;
#FXML
TextField field2;
boolean field1selected=true;
public void initialize(URL arg0, ResourceBundle arg1) {
}
public void switchTextFeild(ActionEvent event){
/*
The code for switch on witch TextField is selected would go here
*/
}
}
Main.fxml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?import javafx.scene.text.*?>
<?import javafx.scene.control.*?>
<?import java.lang.*?>
<?import javafx.scene.layout.*?>
<AnchorPane maxHeight="-Infinity" maxWidth="-Infinity" minHeight="-Infinity" minWidth="-Infinity" prefHeight="400.0" prefWidth="600.0" xmlns="http://javafx.com/javafx/8" xmlns:fx="http://javafx.com/fxml/1" fx:controller="application.MainControl">
<children>
<TextField fx:id="field1" layoutX="6.0" layoutY="2.0" prefHeight="394.0" prefWidth="149.0" />
<TextField fx:id="field2" layoutX="445.0" layoutY="2.0" prefHeight="394.0" prefWidth="149.0" />
<Button fx:id="button" layoutX="177.0" layoutY="14.0" mnemonicParsing="false" onAction="#switchTextFeild" prefHeight="95.0" prefWidth="239.0" text="Switch" textAlignment="CENTER" wrapText="true">
<font>
<Font size="24.0" />
</font>
</Button>
</children>
</AnchorPane>
You can use
field1.requestFocus();
in your initialize() method, so your TextField field1 will be focused after your app is started.
But notice, you have to wrap the requestFocus() call within a
Platform.runLater(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
field1.requestFocus();
}
});
because this should be done on the JavaFX Application Thread and not on the Launcher Thread, so if you would only call field1.requestFocus() this wont have any effect on our TextField.
This is very simple
filedname.requestFocus();
fieldname.selectAll();
you have to first get the focus then use selectAll()function . if you will not use requestFocus() function then selectAll() will not work
The solution is simple for classic java. You can use code below for select text in a textField without doubleclicking on it (no idea about javafx).
field1.requestFocus();
field1.setSelectionStart(0);
field1.setSelectionEnd(field1.getText().length());
I have this controller:
package cz.vutbr.feec.bmds.cv2;
import java.awt.Button;
import java.awt.TextField;
import javafx.event.ActionEvent;
import javafx.fxml.FXML;
import javafx.scene.control.Slider;
public class TestGuiController {
private int buttonPressed = 0;
#FXML
private Button tlacitko;
#FXML
private TextField textovePole;
#FXML
private Slider slider;
public void buttonPressed(ActionEvent e) {
buttonPressed++;
textovePole.setText(Integer.toString(buttonPressed));
}
}
this fxml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?import java.lang.*?>
<?import javafx.scene.control.*?>
<?import javafx.scene.layout.*?>
<?import javafx.scene.layout.BorderPane?>
<AnchorPane prefHeight="200.0" prefWidth="200.0" xmlns:fx="http://javafx.com/fxml" fx:controller="cz.vutbr.feec.bmds.cv2.TestGuiController">
<children>
<Button fx:id="tlacitko" layoutX="30.0" layoutY="40.0" mnemonicParsing="false" onTouchPressed="#buttonPressed" text="Button" />
<Slider fx:id="slider" layoutX="157.0" layoutY="17.0" orientation="VERTICAL" />
<TextField fx:id="textovePole" layoutX="14.0" layoutY="89.0" prefWidth="134.0" />
</children>
</AnchorPane>
and this is my main class:
package cz.vutbr.feec.bmds.cv2;
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.fxml.FXMLLoader;
import javafx.scene.Parent;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
public class Main extends Application {
#Override
public void start(Stage primaryStage) throws Exception {
Parent root = FXMLLoader.load(getClass().getResource("TestGui.fxml"));
primaryStage.setTitle("Titulek");
primaryStage.setScene(new Scene(root,300,275));
primaryStage.show();
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
launch(args);
}
}
When I run this through ant I get message box with error (exception during running application). I tried simple fxml without controller and it works so I am guesing I do something wrong with controller. What I must change to have it working?
I must answer my own question. Problem was in TestGuiController where I used java.awt.Button and java.awt.TextField instead of javafx.scene.control.Button and javafx.scene.control.TextField.
I'm not 100% sure but try:
in FXML: Button: onAction instead of onTouchPressed
Please provide the exact Exception message.
