I'm writing a custom control which displays an error icon and a message in a tooltip if the validation in a form fails. My version without the custom control looks like this:
<HBox>
<TextField fx:id="name"></TextField>
<Label fx:id="error" focusTraversable="false" visible="false">
<graphic>
<ImageView fitHeight="24.0" fitWidth="24.0" pickOnBounds="true" preserveRatio="true"/>
</graphic>
<tooltip>
<Tooltip fx:id="errorTooltip"/>
</tooltip>
</Label>
</HBox>
The result is this:
My efforts to create a custom control lead to this:
<fx:root type="javafx.scene.layout.HBox" xmlns:fx="http://javafx.com/fxml">
<children/>
<Label fx:id="error" focusTraversable="false" visible="false">
<graphic>
<ImageView fitHeight="24.0" fitWidth="24.0" pickOnBounds="true" preserveRatio="true"/>
</graphic>
<tooltip>
<Tooltip fx:id="errorToolTip"/>
</tooltip>
</Label>
</fx:root>
This is the code behind the fxml:
package control;
[imports omitted for brevity]
@DefaultProperty(value = "children")
public final class ValidatedControl extends HBox implements Initializable {
@FXML
private Label error;
@FXML
private Tooltip errorToolTip;
private StringProperty errorToolTipProperty;
public ValidatedControl() {
final FXMLLoader fxmlLoader = new FXMLLoader(getClass().getResource("ValidatedControl.fxml"));
fxmlLoader.setRoot(this);
fxmlLoader.setController(this);
try {
fxmlLoader.load();
} catch (IOException exception) {
throw new RuntimeException(exception);
}
}
public void setErrorToolTip(final String errorToolTip) {
this.getErrorToolTipProperty().setValue(errorToolTip);
}
public String getErrorToolTip() {
return this.getErrorToolTipProperty().getValueSafe();
}
@Override
public void initialize(final URL location, final ResourceBundle resources) {
this.errorToolTip.textProperty().bind(this.getErrorToolTipProperty());
this.error.visibleProperty().bind(this.getErrorToolTipProperty().isNotEmpty());
}
public StringProperty getErrorToolTipProperty() {
if (this.errorToolTipProperty == null) {
this.errorToolTipProperty = new SimpleStringProperty();
}
return this.errorToolTipProperty;
}
}
I can use the control in fxml but the child component I add is always the last child which means the error icon is displayed to its left.
My control is used like this:
<ValidatedControl>
<TextField>
</TextField>
</ValidatedControl>
How do I get it to display the icon on the right side?
Now I do understand your problem. This might not fix your problem when you add your ValidatedControl
in FXML, but when you do it programmatically try this:
ValidatedControl vc = new ValidatedControl();
TextField textField = new TextField();
vc.getChildren().add(textField);
textField.toBack();
Another way would be to go ItachiUchiha's way and add a Pane
in your FXML as first child. But instead of overwriting the getChildren()
method, write a new Method addNode(Node n)
and add the node to the Pane.
forget about my first answer ;)
