I can't get my separator to show up on my form. It is currently in an HBox that is in a VBox:
Separator separator1 = new Separator();
hbox5.getChildren().add(separator1);
The separator is supposed to be under the clear and calculate button and above the converted temperature line.

I have two buttons that I'd like to use in my display screen: a reset button, and a settings button.
The problem is, I want them on opposite sides of the window (reset in the top right corner and settings in the top left) while being the same height. When I expand the window, however, the buttons stay in the same place, but I want them to move with the window walls.
I first tried using setAlignment of my reset button to Pos.*TOP_RIGHT* and the settings button to top left, but it comes out with the settings button being on top of the reset button.
resetButton = new Button("Reset Gameboard");this.setTop(resetButton);
resetBox = new HBox(resetButton);
resetBox.setAlignment(Pos.TOP_RIGHT);
backButton = new Button("Back to Settings");
this.setTop(backButton);
backBox = new HBox(backButton);
backBox.setAlignment(Pos.TOP_LEFT);
resetbackBox = new HBox(backButton, resetButton);
this.setTop(resetbackBox);`
I currently am using (below) which during the initial window appears to be working and correctly spaced, but as soon as you expand the window the reset button doesn't follow it, although the settings button does.
`resetButton = new Button("Reset Gameboard");
this.setTop(resetButton);
resetBox = new HBox(resetButton);
resetBox.setAlignment(Pos.TOP_RIGHT);
backButton = new Button("Back to Settings");
this.setTop(backButton);
backBox = new HBox(backButton);
backBox.setAlignment(Pos.TOP_LEFT);
resetbackBox = new HBox(backButton, resetButton);
resetbackBox.setSpacing(380);
this.setTop(resetbackBox);`
The problem start from this line:
resetbackBox.setSpacing(380);
You have setted a fixed spacing value. To fix that you can easily add a component to HBox called Region, this component allow to set a grow area between two buttons:
Button resetButton = new Button("Reset Gameboard");
Button backButton = new Button("Back to Settings");
Region region = new Region();
HBox.setHgrow(region, Priority.ALWAYS);
HBox topHBox = new HBox(backButton, region, resetButton);
this.setTop(resetbackBox);
I'm trying to write bold text inside the body of a Notification.
Notifications.create()
.title("My Title")
.text("This is <bold>text</bold>")
.showInformation();
As far as I can tell there's only the .text("my text") method to set the text of a Notification.
However I'd like to use a TextFlow in there to modify certain parts of a text.
I've also tried to use CSS for this but that only lets me change to overall appearances of the Notification as setting specific text through CSS is explicitly not supported.
My question now is: Is there a way to style parts of a text inside a Notification differently?
Got it working now.
The solution is to use .graphic(Node node). If you still want to display an Image at the left side you need to put everything in a Pane and add some padding.
I yoinked the original image from here.
BorderPane borderPane = new BorderPane();
borderPane.setLeft(new ImageView(Controller.class.getResource("/dialog-information.png").toExternalForm()));
TextFlow textFlow = new TextFlow();
textFlow.setPadding(new Insets(15, 0, 5, 5));
Text text1 = new Text("This is ");
Text text2 = new Text("bold");
text2.setStyle("-fx-font-weight: bold");
textFlow.getChildren().addAll(text1, text2);
borderPane.setRight(textFlow);
Notifications.create()
.title("My Title")
.graphic(borderPane)
.hideAfter(Duration.seconds(10))
.show();
It is important to use .show() and not .showInformation/Error/Warning() because that would override the BorderPane.

I need to auto generate some UI forms in code to display message contents.
I want to use QToolbox, with an item for each message type. I then want to add labels and line edit to the contents of each tab, depending on the message protocol. I cannot seem to programaticaly add widget items to the toolbox item.
Below is my current code segment. The ui->frame is just a container for the toolbox. I will worry later about layout.
In my code, I create a frame and then some labels with parent set to the frame. Then I add the frame as an item to the toolbox.
QToolBox *qtbMainToolbox = new QToolBox(ui->frame);;
qtbMainToolbox->setGeometry(0,0,2000,900);
QFrame *frm1 = new QFrame;
QLabel *lbl1 = new QLabel(frm1);
QLabel *lbl2 = new QLabel(frm1);
QLabel *lbl3 = new QLabel(frm1);
QLabel *lbl4 = new QLabel(frm1);
iRetVal - qtbMainToolbox->addItem(frm1 ,"Test");
There is no visible element in your widgets; icon or any text.
You have to Set icon or Text to Your QLabel.
QToolBox *qtbMainToolbox = new QToolBox(ui->frame);;
qtbMainToolbox->setGeometry(0,0,2000,900);
QFrame *frm1 = new QFrame;
QLabel *lbl1 = new QLabel("Hello World",frm1);
iRetVal - qtbMainToolbox->addItem(frm1 ,"Test");
try above code.
I am using QTabWidget class of Qt.
In TabWidget i am dynamically adding new tab and setting the TextElideMode to right to display the toolbutton in tabBar.
tabWidget = new QTabWidget(this);
m_addNewTab = new QWidget(tabWidget);
m_addNewGridLayout = new QGridLayout(m_addNewTab);
m_addNewWebView = new MyWebView(m_addNewTab);
widget = new QWidget(m_addNewTab);
tb = new QToolButton(widget);
tb->setFixedHeight(20);
tb->setText("<");
tb1 = new QToolButton(widget);
tb1->setFixedHeight(20);
tb1->setText(">");
m_horizontalLayout = new QHBoxLayout(widget);
m_horizontalLayout->addWidget(tb);
m_horizontalLayout->addWidget(tb1);
Please see the below screen shot for the output of the sample application.
When the current tab is selected then both the toolbutton should display and text elide mode should be right but when tab is not selected then toolbutton should not be displayed but text elide mode should be left.
Here in below screen shot i am able to hide and show the toolbutton depending on tab selection but when the tab is not selected text elide mode is setting as right so we are able to see the unnecessary space (check last tab). Setting the text elide mode left also not working because we have already set the toolbutton at left side.
Can someone guide me how to remove the space (last tab from screen shot) when there is not tab selected ?
You'll have to:
Keep track of tab index and corresponding holding widget (let's say std::map<int,QToolButton> toolbutton_by_index
When QTabWidget.currentChanged is emitted, deactivate all widgets except the selected
You can do the 2nd part like this:
std::for_each(toolbutton_by_index.begin(), toolbutton_by_index.end(),
[&index](auto pair){
(pair.first == index)?pair.second->hide():pair.second->show()});
I want to specify spacing between two elements within JavaFX Buttons, Here is the Code :
ImageView fiv = new ImageView(new Image("/modified/map.png"));
fiv.setFitHeight(20);
fiv.setPreserveRatio(true);
Button cr = new Button( "Crop", fiv);
Here I want to Specify Spacing Between "Crop" and fiv, How can i do this ?
Use graphicTextGap property of the button.
