JavaFX - Layout GridPane
If we use Grid Pane in our application, all the nodes that are added to it are arranged in a way that they form a grid of rows and columns. This layout comes handy while creating forms using JavaFX.
The class named GridPane of the package javafx.scene.layout represents the GridPane. This class provides eleven properties, which are −
alignment − This property represents the alignment of the pane and you can set value of this property using the setAlignment() method.
hgap − This property is of the type double and it represents the horizontal gap between columns.
vgap − This property is of the type double and it represents the vertical gap between rows.
gridLinesVisible − This property is of Boolean type. On true, the lines of the pane are set to be visible.
Following are the cell positions in the grid pane of JavaFX −
(0, 0) | (1, 0) | (2, 0) |
(2, 1) | (1, 1) | (0, 1) |
(2, 2) | (1, 2) | (0, 2) |
Example
The following program is an example of the grid pane layout. In this, we are creating a form using a Grid Pane.
Save this code in a file with the name GridPaneExample.java.
import javafx.application.Application; import javafx.geometry.Insets; import javafx.geometry.Pos; import javafx.scene.Scene; import javafx.scene.control.Button; import javafx.scene.layout.GridPane; import javafx.scene.text.Text; import javafx.scene.control.TextField; import javafx.stage.Stage; public class GridPaneExample extends Application { @Override public void start(Stage stage) { //creating label email Text text1 = new Text("Email"); //creating label password Text text2 = new Text("Password"); //Creating Text Filed for email TextField textField1 = new TextField(); //Creating Text Filed for password TextField textField2 = new TextField(); //Creating Buttons Button button1 = new Button("Submit"); Button button2 = new Button("Clear"); //Creating a Grid Pane GridPane gridPane = new GridPane(); //Setting size for the pane gridPane.setMinSize(400, 200); //Setting the padding gridPane.setPadding(new Insets(10, 10, 10, 10)); //Setting the vertical and horizontal gaps between the columns gridPane.setVgap(5); gridPane.setHgap(5); //Setting the Grid alignment gridPane.setAlignment(Pos.CENTER); //Arranging all the nodes in the grid gridPane.add(text1, 0, 0); gridPane.add(textField1, 1, 0); gridPane.add(text2, 0, 1); gridPane.add(textField2, 1, 1); gridPane.add(button1, 0, 2); gridPane.add(button2, 1, 2); //Creating a scene object Scene scene = new Scene(gridPane); //Setting title to the Stage stage.setTitle("Grid Pane Example"); //Adding scene to the stage stage.setScene(scene); //Displaying the contents of the stage stage.show(); } public static void main(String args[]){ launch(args); } }
Compile and execute the saved java file from the command prompt using the following commands.
javac GridPaneExample.java java GridPaneExample
On executing, the above program generates a JavaFX window as shown below.
