JavaFX FXML create component/control

Question

How to create custom control like Pagination , ProgressIndicator etc.

Using JavaFX SceneBuilder Custom component can be created but its FXML contains all hierarchy of tags . But Pagination does not contains hierarchy of tags (ex button , list etc) , it contains single tag <pagination> with some attribute .

So my question is that how to create components like pagination that does not show its internal tag hierarchy ?

I asked for a tutorial some time ago, but unfortunately the issue is still open: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8090885

Basically you'll need to:

• provide a class which extends Control and defines the interface
• provide a subclass of SkinBase for this control to provide the content
• provide a CSS (now optionally, I think)
