So I was getting started with javaFxml, and I was creating a simple notes program. I wasn't able to Make a new window for adding items to the list of existing ones, so I tried again on a specific new program, but nothing worked. This is the code:
Main class `
package com.scratch.test2;
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.fxml.FXMLLoader;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
import java.io.IOException;
public class Main extends Application {
@Override
public void start(Stage stage) throws IOException {
FXMLLoader fxmlLoader = new FXMLLoader(Main.class.getResource("mainfx.fxml"));
Scene scene = new Scene(fxmlLoader.load(), 320, 240);
stage.setTitle("Scratch file writer - test");
stage.setScene(scene);
stage.show();
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
launch();
}
}
`Main FXML file
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?import javafx.scene.layout.BorderPane?>
<?import javafx.scene.control.MenuBar?>
<?import javafx.scene.control.Menu?>
<?import javafx.scene.control.MenuItem?>
<BorderPane xmlns:fx="http://javafx.com/fxml" fx:id="mainBorderPane"
fx:controller="com.scratch.test2.Controller">
<center>
<MenuBar>
<Menu text="File">
<items>
<MenuItem text="New" fx:id="newItem" onAction="#createNewItem"/>
</items>
</Menu>
</MenuBar>
</center>
</BorderPane>
**Main Controller**
package com.scratch.test2;
import javafx.fxml.FXML;
import javafx.fxml.FXMLLoader;
import javafx.scene.control.ButtonType;
import javafx.scene.control.Dialog;
import javafx.scene.layout.BorderPane;
import java.io.IOException;
public class Controller {
@FXML
private BorderPane mainBorderPane;
@FXML
public void createNewItem() {
FXMLLoader fxmlLoader = new FXMLLoader();
fxmlLoader.setLocation(getClass().getResource("new-item.fxml"));
Dialog<ButtonType> dialog = new Dialog();
dialog.initOwner(mainBorderPane.getScene().getWindow());
try{
dialog.getDialogPane().setContent(fxmlLoader.load());
}catch (IOException e){
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
New FXML file:`
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?import javafx.scene.control.*?>
<?import javafx.scene.layout.*?>
<DialogPane xmlns:fx="http://javafx.com/fxml"
fx:controller="com.scratch.test2.ControllerTwo">
<headerText>
please enter whatever you like
</headerText>
<content>
<GridPane>
<Label text="enter here"/>
<TextField fx:id="textF" />
</GridPane>
</content>
</DialogPane>
new controller:
package com.scratch.test2;
import javafx.fxml.FXML;
import javafx.scene.control.TextField;
public class ControllerTwo {
@FXML
private TextField textF;
public void processResults(){
//I will use this later
String text = textF.getText();
System.out.println(text);
}
}
and here's the error coming up:

after pressing on "File", then "New", a new window should open asking to write your note, but as the new button is pressed an error occurs.
