How do you clear a Spinner within an event handler

Question

When I press a button, I want the spinner value to reset to 0 within an event handler.

Currently I have something like this:

Spinner sp = new Spinner();
int shAge;
....

EventHandler submitH = new EventHandler() {  

    @Override
    public void handle(Event event) {
        int shAge = Integer.parseInt(sp.getValue().toString());
 ....

        System.out.println(shAge);
.....

and logically in my mind, to clear the spinner after the value has been added to an array list, there should be something like

sp.clear();

or

sp.reset();

however I can't seem to find anything like that when looking in the documentation.

Answer 1

If you only want to reset the value to 0 you can do:

sp.getValueFactory().setValue(0);

If you really want to clear the spinner you can additionally do:

sp.getEditor().clear();

But be aware that clearing the editor seems to be not fully supported. Using the increment and decrement buttons after that will throw a NullPointerException for example.
