I making a productivity app for school. So I basically got a Scene switcher and it is reloading the .fxml file each time. So whatever values were stored in taskListView
are now gone. I am new to java fx, and can someone help me fix this?
HelloApplication.java:
package com.example.newapp;
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.fxml.FXMLLoader;
import javafx.scene.Parent;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.layout.Pane;
import javafx.scene.paint.Color;
import javafx.scene.shape.Circle;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
import java.util.Objects;
public class HelloApplication extends Application {
@Override
public void start(Stage primaryStage) throws Exception {
FXMLLoader loader = new FXMLLoader(getClass().getResource("scene2.fxml"));
Parent root = loader.load();
String cssFile = Objects.requireNonNull(getClass().getResource("style.css")).toExternalForm();
root.getStylesheets().add(cssFile);
Pane pane = new Pane(root);
// Create a circle
Circle circle = new Circle(8, Color.BLACK);
circle.setMouseTransparent(true);
pane.getChildren().add(circle);
// Update the circle's position based on mouse movement
pane.setOnMouseMoved(event -> {
circle.setCenterX(event.getX());
circle.setCenterY(event.getY());
});
primaryStage.setTitle("To-Do List");
primaryStage.setScene(new Scene(pane));
primaryStage.setResizable(false);
primaryStage.show();
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
launch(args);
}
}
HelloController.java code:
package com.example.newapp;
import javafx.collections.ObservableList;
import javafx.event.ActionEvent;
import javafx.fxml.FXML;
import javafx.fxml.FXMLLoader;
import javafx.scene.Node;
import javafx.scene.Parent;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.control.ListView;
import javafx.scene.control.TextField;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.Objects;
public class HelloController {
private Stage primaryStage;
private Scene scene;
private Parent scene1Root;
private Parent scene2Root;
@FXML
private ListView<String> taskListView;
@FXML
private TextField taskTextField;
@FXML
private void addTask() {
String task = taskTextField.getText();
if (!task.isEmpty()) {
taskListView.getItems().add(task);
taskTextField.clear();
}
}
@FXML
private void removeTask() {
ObservableList<String> selectedTasks = taskListView.getSelectionModel().getSelectedItems();
taskListView.getItems().removeAll(selectedTasks);
}
public void switchToScene1(ActionEvent event) throws IOException {
if (scene1Root == null) {
scene1Root = FXMLLoader.load(Objects.requireNonNull(getClass().getResource("scene1.fxml")));
}
primaryStage = (Stage) ((Node) event.getSource()).getScene().getWindow();
scene = new Scene(scene1Root);
primaryStage.setScene(scene);
primaryStage.show();
}
public void switchToScene2(ActionEvent event) throws IOException {
if (scene2Root == null) {
scene2Root = FXMLLoader.load(Objects.requireNonNull(getClass().getResource("scene2.fxml")));
}
primaryStage = (Stage) ((Node) event.getSource()).getScene().getWindow();
scene = new Scene(scene2Root);
primaryStage.setScene(scene);
primaryStage.show();
}
}
I have tried to load the .fxml separately, but it was not working for me it still kept clearing all the data in the taskListView
.
