I am working with a GridPane layout and I require it to (by default) have a fixed number of rows and columns. In certain situations, I would like the GridPane to expand in the number of rows and columns. I would like the GridPane to have an extra row/column by placing an entire empty row/column on the outer sides of the GridPane.
This feature exists in the JavaFX Scene Builder by right clicking on the GridPane and selecting GridPane, then it will show a list of options: Add Row Above, Add Row Below, Add Column After, Add Column Before. The results of each of these options are what I desire. But I have looked through the API and there does not seem to be any relevant behaviour.
If there is a layout that you seem will work, please let me know!
P.S., I would like to post an image to show what I mean but I do not have 10 reputation posts. :( The instructions has been listed above or here: http://i.imgur.com/asqaZEe.png
Thank you very much,
Matt

I have a series of buttons that I want to appear in columns at the bottom of my QML page. The number of columns across should depend on the width of the window, as the window width increases I want more columns to be added. (And fewer rows as a result as components are pulled up to the previous line)
This is sort of like a Flow component, but I want the items to appear in columns, evenly spaced across the page, in rows and columns (columns centered vertically, at the bottom of the page). Sort of like GridLayout.
I can't figure out what QML component(s) to use to achieve this.
I think what you're looking for is a GridView. See the layout documentation.
I'm not positive, but based on your description I think you would just need to set the flow property to GridView.FlowTopToBottom.
I was creating like a forum with javaFX. And the question and it's answers are formed using a treeView. Like the question would be a root and it's answers would be it's nodes.
But, it's happening that the treeItems are going straight in only one line, creating a horizontal scroll, and after some words, just putting '...' instead of the rest of the answers. I am using scene builder. Can anyone please tell me a way so that I can eliminate the horizontal scroll, and have the answer in multiple lines?
You have to set the cell's WrapText property, e.g. in the column's cell factory.
Some answers like this one indicate that you have to bind the wrappingWidthProperty to a certain length if you use custom controls inside your cell.
I want to make something like a gridlayout but the layout must decide how many elements can be fitted in a row, and when the row is full continue with the next row.
QtGridLayout also fixes the columns width.
I want to something like this (this pictures was manually organised in Horizontals and verticals grids)
When the image size changes one of the buttons goes to first row.
((In this compositions both images looks with the same size, but actually second one is wider than first one).
Some one answer this question but remove it, so the credits are for my unknown friend.
Qt have an example named Flow Layout Example for a widget based form and another for Graphics View widget.
gridpane different rows width
i want to make a registration form with Grid Pane of different rows of cell width
like this pictures in javafx i am beginner please help
I got the task to draw some points on a map. Wrote some code but currently every point I create via shapes will be added to the wrong position inside of my gridpane. Oh and I'm using JavaFX.
I added an imageView to the index 0,0 of my GridPane and every point is created through x and y position of the MouseEvent on the imageView.
After that I added the created point as a child of the GridPane and it's displayed at the center of the y-axis of the first grid.
Tried different things like anchorPanes and canvas but can't seem to get it working.

I hope that's enough ^^'
pls help!

GridPane is a managed layout: it will position nodes that are added to it via the properties you set (using defaults if you don't set them). So when you add your circles to the grid pane, since you don't set any properties, it will place it in cell (0,0) and align it within that cell using default settings; i.e. it ignores the centerX and centerY properties.
What you should really do here is use a layout that does not manage the positioning of the nodes for you, such as a Pane (or possibly a Group). You can put the ImageView and the Circles in the pane, and then place the pane in the rest of your layout (in the scroll pane, I think).
The other option you have is to call setManaged(false) on the nodes you add to the GridPane in order to instruct the GridPane not to position them, though this feels like more of a workaround.
