Question

I cannot figure out why, but the text on this is not centering on the screen no matter what I do, it is aligning on the left. please help.
public class FarmApp extends Application {
Scene scene;
HBox pane;
Stage gameStage;
/**
* {#inheritDoc}
*/
public void start(Stage stage) {
pane = new HBox();
Scene scene = new Scene(pane, 1500, 900);
createWelcome();
this.scene = scene;
gameStage = stage;
stage.setTitle("Chuggville");
stage.setResizable(false);
stage.setScene(scene);
stage.sizeToScene();
stage.show();
} // start
/**
* Creates the welcome screen for Farm game
*/
public void createWelcome() {
HBox hbox2 = new HBox();
Text chugville = new Text();
chugville.setText("Chugville");
chugville.setFont(Font.font("Verdana", 90));
BorderPane centerText2 = new BorderPane();
centerText2.setCenter(chugville);
hbox2.getChildren().addAll(centerText2);
pane.getChildren().addAll(centerText2);
}

You have so much noise in your code that it's hard to know what's causing the issue.
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.layout.BorderPane;
import javafx.scene.text.Font;
import javafx.scene.text.Text;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
public class App extends Application {
/**
* {#inheritDoc}
*/
#Override
public void start(Stage stage) {
BorderPane welcomeScreen = createWelcome();
Scene scene = new Scene(welcomeScreen, 1500, 900);
stage.setTitle("Chuggville");
stage.setResizable(false);
stage.setScene(scene);
stage.show();
} // start
/**
* Creates the welcome screen for Farm game
* #return
*/
public BorderPane createWelcome() {
Text chugville = new Text();
chugville.setText("Chugville");
chugville.setFont(Font.font("Verdana", 90));
BorderPane centerText2 = new BorderPane();
centerText2.setCenter(chugville);
return centerText2;
}
}
