I'm not sure if this is possible and I couldn't find anything on it, but could I make a scrollpane scroll forever? I am constantly adding new buttons and labels into the window once a button is pressed, and eventually is gets to the bottom. I may be setting it up wrong but here is code:
BorderPane bp = new BorderPane();
GridPane gp = new GridPane();
Button b = new Button("click");
gp.add(b, 1, 1);
ScrollPane sp = new ScrollPane(gp);
bp.setTop(sp);
b.setOnAction(e -> createLabel());
Your'e nearly there, all you now need to do is add the scroll pane as a child of whatever the container is
GridPane gp = new GridPane();
Button b = new Button("click");
gp.add(b, 1, 1);
b.setOnAction(e -> createLabel());
ScrollPane sp = new ScrollPane(gp);
container.add(sp); // where container is whatever node that'll contain the gridpane.
Play with this code
public class Controller {
@FXML private VBox topLevelContainer; // root fxml element
@FXML
void initialize(){
GridPane gridPane = new GridPane();
ScrollPane sp = new ScrollPane(gridPane);
topLevelContainer.getChildren().add(sp);
// add a 100 buttons to 0th column
for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
gridPane.add(new Button("button"),0,i);
}
}
}
