I feel like I have searched half the Web and found no solution...
I have a java application displaying a Map(different countries etc.).
currently you are able to scroll down and up using your mouse wheel...
I want it so, that you are able to scroll sideways (horizontally).
All I need is a Listener (in Swing or Javafx does not matter) triggering whenever the mousewheel gets tilted, without the need for a focus of the map (hovering with your mouse should be enough the windows should still be focused) and without any visible scrollbars.
Using the following code every time you scroll sideways a message gets printed out...
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.event.Event;
import javafx.event.EventHandler;
import javafx.event.EventType;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.input.ScrollEvent;
import javafx.scene.layout.BorderPane;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
public class Main extends Application {
#Override
public void start(Stage primaryStage) {
try {
BorderPane root = new BorderPane();
Scene scene = new Scene(root,400,400);
scene.getStylesheets().add(getClass().getResource("application.css").toExternalForm());
primaryStage.setScene(scene);
scene.setOnScroll(new EventHandler<ScrollEvent>(){
#Override
public void handle(ScrollEvent event) {
System.out.println("Scroll:" + event.getDeltaX());
}
});
primaryStage.show();
} catch(Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
launch(args);
}
}
One thing to consider:
Apparently when embedding a JFXPanel into a JFrame the sideway scrolling event is not getting passed.

I need remove my javafx app from the taskbar. I tried StageStyle.UTILITY. This is works but I need both UNDECORATED and UTILITY stage styles or another solvings.
Thank you for your replies.
Sorry you've been waiting so long for some sort of an answer on this, the following is mainly for people who come to this in the future hoping to discover a way of achieving this.
Let me start of by saying I wouldn't consider the following a solution but more of a workaround.
Assigning more than one initStyle to a stage is not possible however hiding the application from the task-bar and assigning an initStyle other than utility to the stage that is shown is.
To achieve this one must create two stages, the stage they want the user to see, and an another stage that will be considered the parent of the main stage and will be of initStyle.UTILITY this will prevent the icon from showing in the task-bar.
Below you can see the hello world example from oracles documentation modified to allow for an undecorated window with no icon (Note if one wanted to achieve a transparent/decorated window they could do so by changing the style of mainStage).
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;
import javafx.stage.StageStyle;
public class MultipleStageStyles extends Application {
public static void main(String[] args) {
launch(args);
}
#Override
public void start(Stage primaryStage) {
primaryStage.initStyle(StageStyle.UTILITY);
primaryStage.setOpacity(0);
primaryStage.setHeight(0);
primaryStage.setWidth(0);
primaryStage.show();
Stage mainStage = new Stage();
mainStage.initOwner(primaryStage);
mainStage.initStyle(StageStyle.UNDECORATED);
Button btn = new Button();
btn.setText("Say 'Hello World'");
btn.setOnAction(new EventHandler<ActionEvent>() {
#Override
public void handle(ActionEvent event) {
System.out.println("Hello World!");
}
});
StackPane root = new StackPane();
root.getChildren().add(btn);
mainStage.setScene(new Scene(root, 300, 250));
mainStage.show();
}
}
What I want to do:
Have a slider, from 0 - 10, have it move only by a full tick(1), and show the value of the tick above the tick.
What happens:
It shows all values from 0-10 except for 9 which is mysteriously missing..

Code:
Main Class:
import javafx.application.Application;
import static javafx.application.Application.launch;
import javafx.geometry.Rectangle2D;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.layout.HBox;
import javafx.stage.Screen;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
public class StartGui extends Application
{
#Override
public void start(Stage stage)
{
HBox box = new HBox();
PionnenSlider slider = new PionnenSlider();
box.getChildren().add(slider);
Scene scene = new Scene(box, 500, 300);
stage.setScene(scene);
stage.setTitle("SliderMinimalCode");
Rectangle2D primaryScreenBounds = Screen.getPrimary().getVisualBounds();
stage.show();
}
public static void main(String[] args)
{
launch(args);
}
}
Slider class:
import javafx.scene.control.Slider;
public class PionnenSlider extends Slider
{
public PionnenSlider()
{
setMinorTickCount(0);
setBlockIncrement(1);
setMajorTickUnit(1);
setValue(0);
setMax(10);
setShowTickMarks(true);
setShowTickLabels(true);
setSnapToTicks(true);
}
}
apparently it is due to lack of space for the slider, found a workaround to automaticly size it with HBox.setHgrow(sliderPionnen, Priority.ALWAYS);, although that just grows it to fill the entire HBOX.. so I guess I'l have to find a workaround for that
I am developing a chat application on JavaFX and I stuck with a little problem. In short, I want to have a possibility to insert an image(for example smiles) inside TextField which is intended for text input.But as I know, there is no possibility to insert images inside this element. Does JavaFX have some alternatives for that or maybe you know something else, what I can use for this?
Thank you, in advance.
You can try to use HTMLEditor. It supports styled text and other html features, which include adding images.
There is example of using HTMLEditor as inputField for chat:
package org.laptech.sample;
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.application.Platform;
import javafx.scene.Node;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.web.HTMLEditor;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
public class ChatFieldSample extends Application{
private HTMLEditor htmlEditor;
public void hideHTMLEditorToolbars() {
htmlEditor.setVisible(false);
Platform.runLater(() -> {
Node[] nodes = htmlEditor.lookupAll(".tool-bar").toArray(new Node[0]);
for (Node node : nodes) {
node.setVisible(false);
node.setManaged(false);
}
htmlEditor.setVisible(true);
});
}
#Override public void start(Stage primaryStage) throws Exception {
htmlEditor = new HTMLEditor();
hideHTMLEditorToolbars();
htmlEditor.setHtmlText("Text<img src='urltosmile'/>Text Text Text");
primaryStage.setScene(new Scene(htmlEditor, 300, 300));
primaryStage.show();
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
launch(args);
}
}
I create htmlEditor and hide toolbar in method(hideHTMLEditorToolbars)
The only, which I faced , was the problem of losing focus, when i handle keyEvents and setText there.
I need either a Label or a Text for my project. I need the label so that ellipsis can be used. The problem though, is when I try to use a FadeTransition, and play it, the label gets slightly darker at the start. Here is some demo code:
package com.neonorb.test;
import javafx.animation.FadeTransition;
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.event.ActionEvent;
import javafx.event.EventHandler;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.control.Button;
import javafx.scene.control.Label;
import javafx.scene.layout.BorderPane;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
import javafx.util.Duration;
import java.io.IOException;
/**
* Created by chris on 7/20/15.
*/
public class Test extends Application {
public static void main(String[] args) {
launch(args);
}
#Override
public void start(Stage primaryStage) throws IOException {
Label label = new Label("hello");
//Text label = new Text("hello);//Using Text instead of Label does not cause the weird behavior
FadeTransition fadeTransition = new FadeTransition(Duration.seconds(3), label);
fadeTransition.setFromValue(1.0);
fadeTransition.setToValue(0.0);
fadeTransition.setOnFinished(new EventHandler<ActionEvent>() {
#Override
public void handle(ActionEvent actionEvent) {
label.setOpacity(1.0);
}
});
Button button = new Button("play");
button.setOnAction(new EventHandler<ActionEvent>() {
#Override
public void handle(ActionEvent actionEvent) {
fadeTransition.play();
}
});
BorderPane borderPane = new BorderPane();
borderPane.setCenter(label);
borderPane.setBottom(button);
primaryStage.setScene(new Scene(borderPane));
primaryStage.show();
}
}
So I either need a fix to this problem, or a way to use ellipsis in Text. Any ideas?
Set the opacity of the label to 0.99 initially:
label.setOpacity(0.99);
Also change the code inside setOnFinished method in the same way. Then, set the starting value of the fade transition to 0.99:
fadeTransition.setFromValue(0.99);
I know this is not the solution you are looking for, but this solution prevents the label from abruptly getting darker at the start. That is because the label actually starts with that darker status.
You can send a desktop notification with JavaFx like this (requires jdk 8u20 or later):
package sample;
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.control.Button;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
import org.controlsfx.control.Notifications;
public class Main extends Application {
#Override
public void start(Stage primaryStage) throws Exception{
// Parent root = FXMLLoader.load(getClass().getResource("sample.fxml"));
Button notifyButton = new Button("Notify");
notifyButton.setOnAction(e -> {
Notifications.create().title("Test").text("Test Notification!").showInformation();
});
primaryStage.setTitle("Hello World");
primaryStage.setScene(new Scene(notifyButton, 100, 50));
primaryStage.show();
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
launch(args);
}
}
But this way you have to create a main window (stage), is it possible to avoid this? I am looking for a way to send notification like using zenity in bash: most of the code is non-gui, but uses some gui elements for informing or interacting with user in a very basic fashion.
It looks like the ControlsFX notifications require a existing stage. You can create a hidden utility stage. Try something like this.
package sample;
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.application.Platform;
import javafx.embed.swing.JFXPanel;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.layout.StackPane;
import javafx.scene.paint.Color;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
import javafx.stage.StageStyle;
import org.controlsfx.control.Notifications;
public class Main extends Application {
#Override
public void start(Stage primaryStage) throws Exception{
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
new JFXPanel();
notifier("Good!", "It's working now!");
}
private static void notifier(String pTitle, String pMessage) {
Platform.runLater(() -> {
Stage owner = new Stage(StageStyle.TRANSPARENT);
StackPane root = new StackPane();
root.setStyle("-fx-background-color: TRANSPARENT");
Scene scene = new Scene(root, 1, 1);
scene.setFill(Color.TRANSPARENT);
owner.setScene(scene);
owner.setWidth(1);
owner.setHeight(1);
owner.toBack();
owner.show();
Notifications.create().title(pTitle).text(pMessage).showInformation();
}
);
}
}
new JFXPanel() initializes the JavaFX thread without having to extend Application. You have to call this before any calls to Platform.runLater() otherwise you will get a thread exception. You only need to call it once for the whole application though. Honestly it is probably better to create your own notification stage and display it directly. Create a stage like above and put your own contents. You can probably reuse some of the styling from the ControlsFX source.
