Answer 1

Any reason why you can't try the following?

@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
    myDataArray.add(data1);
    myDataArray.add(data2);
    myAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
}

Answer 2

Just like in the answer provided in the question you've shared, to add two items -

1) add both the data to the array

2) notify data set changes

// Add the data fields to the array
dataArray.add(0, dataField1);
dataArray.add(1, dataField2);
// Notify the adapter that data set has changed
adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();

Try dataArray.add(dataField) inside the button's onClick and notify the adapter about the changes. Every time the button is clicked, an item gets added at the end of the list.

So if you want to do this statically

ListView<String> list = new ListView<String>();
    ObservableList<String> items = FXCollections.observableArrayList(
            "something1", "something2", "something3");
    list.setItems(items); 

But if you want to do this dinamically you can use this code:

ListView<String> list = new ListView<String>();
    ObservableList<String> items = FXCollections.observableArrayList(
            "something1", "something2", "something3");
    list.setItems(items);

 list.setEditable(true);

    Button btn = new Button();
    btn.setText("Add String");
    btn.setOnAction((ActionEvent event) -> {
        list.getItems().add(i - 1, "something" + i);
        list.edit(i - 2);
        i++;
    });
