`VBox` doesn't put Node under `FlowPane`

Hello, my problem is than my VBox doesn't put next Node under my FlowPane. I'm adding nodes dynamicly to it and VBox put's next Node below FIRST line in FlowPane. Do you know what may cause that?👀

Hello, can you show some code?

fertizOP•3y ago

sure

public final class CustomStat extends HBox {

    public CustomStat(ImageView icon, String value, String tooltip) {
        // #191B20 | #2C2F37
        this.setStyle("-fx-background-color: #191B20; -fx-background-radius: 50");

        this.setSpacing(15);

        Text valueText = new Text(value);

        valueText.setFont(Font.font("Arial", 20));

        valueText.setStyle("-fx-fill: #45464b; -fx-font-family: Arial; -fx-font-size: 20;");

        this.setAlignment(Pos.CENTER);

        this.setPadding(new Insets(10, 10, 10, 10));

        this.getChildren().addAll(icon, valueText);
    }
}

public final class CustomStat extends HBox {

    public CustomStat(ImageView icon, String value, String tooltip) {
        // #191B20 | #2C2F37
        this.setStyle("-fx-background-color: #191B20; -fx-background-radius: 50");

        this.setSpacing(15);

        Text valueText = new Text(value);

        valueText.setFont(Font.font("Arial", 20));

        valueText.setStyle("-fx-fill: #45464b; -fx-font-family: Arial; -fx-font-size: 20;");

        this.setAlignment(Pos.CENTER);

        this.setPadding(new Insets(10, 10, 10, 10));

        this.getChildren().addAll(icon, valueText);
    }
}

(^ This is what I add to FlowPane)

public final class CustomStatsPane extends FlowPane {

    public CustomStatsPane() {
        this.setPrefWidth(1280);
        this.setOrientation(Orientation.HORIZONTAL);
        this.setAlignment(Pos.TOP_CENTER);
        this.setHgap(25);
        this.setPrefWrapLength(Region.USE_COMPUTED_SIZE);
        this.setVgap(25);
    }

    public void addStats(CustomStat... stats) {
        this.getChildren().addAll(stats);
    }
}

public final class CustomStatsPane extends FlowPane {

    public CustomStatsPane() {
        this.setPrefWidth(1280);
        this.setOrientation(Orientation.HORIZONTAL);
        this.setAlignment(Pos.TOP_CENTER);
        this.setHgap(25);
        this.setPrefWrapLength(Region.USE_COMPUTED_SIZE);
        this.setVgap(25);
    }

    public void addStats(CustomStat... stats) {
        this.getChildren().addAll(stats);
    }
}

(^ this is FlowPane)

        CustomStatsPane statsPane = new CustomStatsPane();

        VBox.setVgrow(statsPane, Priority.ALWAYS);

        for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
            ImageView test = new ImageView("assets/units/Bazooka.png");
            test.setFitWidth(35);
            test.setFitHeight(30);
            CustomStat stat = new CustomStat(test, "test: " + user.getTimesAttacked(), "dd");
            statsPane.addStats(stat);
        }

        CustomStatsPane statsPane = new CustomStatsPane();

        VBox.setVgrow(statsPane, Priority.ALWAYS);

        for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
            ImageView test = new ImageView("assets/units/Bazooka.png");
            test.setFitWidth(35);
            test.setFitHeight(30);
            CustomStat stat = new CustomStat(test, "test: " + user.getTimesAttacked(), "dd");
            statsPane.addStats(stat);
        }

(^ this is how I use Flowpane)

fertizOP•3y ago

the parent is VBox with 50 spacing so I think somehow FlowPane height is just for 1 row. any clue?

stechy1•3y ago

So issue is that red and yellow box overlaps?

fertizOP•3y ago

yes that yellow box overlaps red one (red = FlowPane) but when I have just 1 row of FlowPane, everything is good it's like it doesnt count the second row

stechy1•3y ago

huh, that seems like a bug in calculation of a height. What if you remove the priority for Vgrow? or isn't the issue that it does not fit into the total height?

fertizOP•3y ago

I mean whenever I tried HBox#getWidth (from CustomStat) it returns 0, same goes for height and FlowPane

stechy1•3y ago

getWidth is tricky. Try to use getPrefWidth/getPrefHeight from what I remember, the pref properties are properly updated

fertizOP•3y ago

yes but VBox doesn't use getPrefWidth but getWidth same goes for height

stechy1•3y ago

I see... 🤔

fertizOP•3y ago

idk why it calculates only first row

stechy1•3y ago

Unfortunately I'm not close to my computer so I can not try it... :/

fertizOP•3y ago

my FlowPane is actually good, I rendered the border but idk why other pane overlaps it

stechy1•3y ago

you can maybe try to call "requestLayout" on VBox manually...

fertizOP•3y ago

still nothing

fertizOP•3y ago

drawn borders

stechy1•3y ago

What version of JavaFX do you use? Have you tried latest version? Maybe it is fixed in some newer versions...

fertizOP•3y ago

it is latest is there any other alternative for FlowPane :??

stechy1•3y ago

Just to be sure... Well, I can not help now, but I will check it tomorrow when I will be on computer...

fertizOP•3y ago

alright

stechy1•3y ago

Nothing of what I know... Maybe some 3rd party lib

fertizOP•3y ago

I think I got it working, all I had to do was flowPane.setMinHeight(flowPane.prefHeight(-1)); crazy
