JavaFX Color Picker without Color Chooser - css

Question

I am displaying a lable for each series within a line chart instead of the chart legend symbol. When clicking on the lable a color picker is added to choose the series color.
I am looking for a way to show only the palette and not the color choser (see here for definition)
Here is a code snippet extracting the clickable label part:
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.control.ColorPicker;
import javafx.scene.control.Label;
import javafx.scene.input.MouseEvent;
import javafx.scene.layout.Pane;
import javafx.scene.paint.Color;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
public class LabelColorPicker extends Application {
#Override
public void start(Stage stage) throws Exception {
Pane pane = new Pane();
ColorPicker colorPicker = new ColorPicker() {
#Override
public void hide() {
super.hide();
pane.getChildren().remove(this);
}
};
colorPicker.setValue(Color.BLUE);
Label label = new Label("Series name");
label.textFillProperty().bind(colorPicker.valueProperty());
pane.getChildren().add(label);
label.addEventFilter(MouseEvent.MOUSE_PRESSED, event -> {
pane.getChildren().add(colorPicker);
colorPicker.show();
colorPicker.layoutYProperty().bind(label.heightProperty());
});
Scene scene = new Scene(pane, 800, 600);
stage.setScene(scene);
stage.show();
}
}

Answer 1

Just call
colorPicker.setVisible(false);
If you want to avoid the space being occupied in the containing pane (I'm not sure why you are managing the layout yourself, instead of using e.g. a VBox), also call
colorPicker.setManaged(false);
