I am trying to add a JFXPanel to my JFrame. I am using Netbeans and Netbeans' Swing GUI Builder. When I run it I do not get any errors and the JFrame is created successfully but the JFXPanel with the text does not appear.
Here is my code:
public class TestingFX {
private static void initJFrame() {
NewJFrame frame = new NewJFrame();
final JFXPanel fxPanel = new JFXPanel();
frame.add(fxPanel);
frame.setVisible(true);
Platform.runLater(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
fxPanel.setScene(createScene());
}
});
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
initJFrame();
}
});
}
public static Scene createScene() {
Text text = new Text("Hello World");
text.setFont(new Font(24));
text.setEffect(new Reflection());
BorderPane pane = new BorderPane();
pane.setCenter(text);
Scene scene = new Scene(pane);
return scene;
}
}
Why is it not working? Am I doing something wrong?
Perhaps you should read Integrating JavaFX into Swing Applications, and then refactor your code accordingly.
Try
public class Demo extends Application{
private static JFXPanel javafxPanel;
public static void main(String[] args) {
SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
initAndShowGUI();
}
});
}
public static void initAndShowGUI() {
JFrame frame = new JFrame("Swing application");
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
// Create JavaFX panel.
javafxPanel = new JFXPanel();
frame.getContentPane().add(javafxPanel, BorderLayout.CENTER);
// Create JavaFX scene.
Application.launch (Demo.class, null);
// Show frame.
frame.pack();
frame.setVisible(true);
}
@Override
public void start (Stage mainStage) {
// Add scene to panel
javafxPanel.setScene(createScene());
}
private static Scene createScene() {
Text text = new Text("Hello World");
text.setFont(new Font(24));
text.setEffect(new Reflection());
BorderPane pane = new BorderPane();
pane.setCenter(text);
Scene scene = new Scene(pane);
return scene;
}
}
When creating a scene, this example assumes that the code you've included is valid.
