Is there a way to display custom text for TextProperty? (JavaFX)

Question

Let's assume that I have a TextField and a Label

TextField customTextField
Label customLabel

I want to bind the customLabel to the customTextField 's TextProperty. After doing so the customLabel will be updated according to what the customTextField contains. However, I want something a bit more than this. For example, if I enter the amount 15.0 I want it to update the customLabel 's text to 15.0/100.0 . Is there any way of doing this?

Thanks in advance.

Looks like you already figured it out, but to clarify for any who might come here looking, you can use something like this:

customLabel.textProperty().bind(
    customTextField.textProperty().stringBinding { "$it/100.0" }
)
