I have a Vbox object, and I want to insert inside 4 "radio buttons" and beside each one of them a "TextField".
It suppose to look like the first picture:
The thing is, I want to do this with code and not through SceneBuilder.
I'm just struggling with how to insert objects inside Vbox..
I've created 4 TextField in size of(Vbox.Wideth - 50, Vbox.Height) ) (I'll leave 50 of width for the radio button)
But I don't know how to insert the textField inside the Vbox
Need help, thank you!

This is my original sceneBuild build:
in the middle it's the Vbox named "vboxForAnswers"

I was thinking exactly about the first way, but yeah I'll have to find a way to do the functionality..
How can label help? I barely ever used it
Isn't that just a text holder?
And I don't know listView, i'll try to search about it
And thank you very much
I can make a functionality between the radio and the text by saving the index of the radio button and then look what the text is inside this index right?
And then i'll try to match it with the question, if it's the same text then it's the correct answer
vBox.add(...)
Didn't work
So I did addChildren and i got this (the first picture)
It seems like the text's bar size can't be changed, it's always the same height and width (picture 2)
Even if i'll put 200 instead of vbox.width.. it will remain the same size

I'm trying to do it with label, but label doesn't have an eventHandler... I'm totally stuck
i mean, setOnAction so I can press on it

I gave up on the radio button
I'll do only label which you press and get it's text

I didn't use listview since I don't know it
I'm on youtube now to learn about it
I was thinking only about putting 4 labels and then when you press on a label it will compare with the right answer.
But I'll just move to listview

I don't know anymore how to do this with radio-buttons, I'm totally stuck with it
I'll learn about listview, hopefully I'll manage to do this
The aim is to do this properly, but I also have a dead-line with the university, i have to find a solution

Do you mean methods which do different operations on the same time?

yeah, to be honest I'm trying to break everything to many different methods with unique roles.
What I sent you is the initialize method where I mixed things up just to make sure it works.
But I've failed it
Something like this
One method was for initializing the question on the top of the window
Other method for the answers
And other for the poping message when the game is over
Is it bad?
But my initialize method is totally messed up right now since i'm lost 🫠
But i'm totally open for criticizing since I know I'm not good at this

Nope
We learn in the university only about java-FX and basic coding
and ofc generics and few other stuff
It's called "Java advanced"

"is it supposed to keep track of correct answer"
Is it a question or statement?
Aaa got it now
Ok
Will do it
(1) Make a class called Question give it the question and the answers, give it which answer is correct, give it an isCorrect method
and then TEST the class
(2)then make a Quiz class, give it a way to load questions, give it a getRandomQuestion() method.
(3)keep track of correct answer or whatever is required for the quiz to be correct, add it in the quiz class
and add it with different methods for each thing
then test the quiz.
(4)only AFTER u have all of that running do u make the QuizView class where u put the javaFX
and u already know how to pre-initialise a controller, so u can make the QuizViewController constructor take a Quiz instance and link the quiz to the javaFX that way
and it wont be mixed up inside the javaFX!!
Organized it so it will be next to my eyes
@borgrel
Something like this?
Database class contains the bank of words
Question class get an index and produces an object which absorbs question, right answer, 3 wrong answers from the bank (Database).
"getAnswers()" method needs to be fixed, but it shows you the question and the 4 answers and returns the Strings which includes them
And of course main method
I've renamed getAnswers() to getForm()
It makes more sense

This is the database, it's not ok?
interfaces we've just touched it, barely ever used it
prepared statements I don't know what is this
It was a standard in out university so I got used to it, but I will change it, thank you for marking this🙏

Okie!
So i'll get rid of the extends.
It's something I have lack of understanding in general, when I should extends and when I shouldn't
I guess I shouldn't also do "Quiz extends Question" cause I don't manage to understand how to continue this

ok I will
@borgrel
They said in the assignment that the array of questions we can initialize in the code.
I think that's the only way for me since I've never touched SQL
and it seems like prepared statement are based on basic understanding of SQL

Because I need to check if my code works
I've created the database
I forgot to show you
Database I meant like a class with Questions, answers and wrong answers so I can test my code
