I have a PopOver with a TextField with a strange behavior, this PopOver it's owned by other TextField because when I type the word 'Fernández'
all keys are processed by the internal TextField except when I type a stressed vowel like 'á
' that it's collected by the external TextField.
But when i show the same PopOver owned by a button works fine and the internal TextField receives the letter 'á'
I would appreciate any help to solve it.
EDIT: Here you can see an example code to show this.
public class PopOverTest extends Application {
@Override
public void start(Stage primaryStage) {
CustomTextField externo = new CustomTextField();
ImageView imgView = new ImageView(new Image("test/image.png"));
externo.setLeft(imgView);
CustomTextField interno = new CustomTextField();
PopOver popOver = new PopOver();
popOver.setContentNode(interno);
popOver.stArrowLocation(PopOver.ArrowLocation.TOP_LEFT);
imgView.setOnMouseClicked(e -> {
popOver.show(imgView);
});
StackPane root = new StackPane();
root.getChildren().add(externo);
Scene scene = new Scene(root, 300, 250);
primaryStage.setTitle("Hello World!");
primaryStage.setScene(scene);
primaryStage.show();
}
/**
* @param args the command line arguments
*/
public static void main(String[] args) {
launch(args);
}
}
I found a solution for this.
Changing the external Textfield EventDispatcher and the problem is resolved
EventDispatcher dispatcher = externalTextField.getEventDispatcher();
then on focus of the internal TextField
externalTextField.setEventDispatcher(interntalTextField.getEventDispatcher());
and when lost focus restore the EventDispatcher
externalTextField.setEventDispatcher(dispatcher);
That's all folks!
