How do I manage multiple windows with javafx












0














Im working on an application that is using multiple windows, I have a button with a handle method:



private class btnHandler implements EventHandler<ActionEvent>{
@Override
public void handle(ActionEvent event) {
final BorderPane pane = new BorderPane();

final Scene scene = new Scene(pane, 600, 400);
final URL stylesheet = getClass().getResource("playerStyle.css");
scene.getStylesheets().add(stylesheet.toString());
Stage window = new Stage();

eqButton.disableProperty().bind(window.showingProperty());

window.getIcons().add(new Image(icon.toString()));
window.setScene(scene);
window.setResizable(false);
window.setTitle("Title");
window.show();
}
}


and it works just fine, but - creates a new window right on top of the first one. So i would like to ask - is there a way to make it appear somewhere else? I want to make it always appear at the side of a first window, regardless of its position - how can I do it?

          To make new window (stage) appear at the right side of current window (stage) use this



          newWindow.setX(currentWindow.getX()+currentWindow.getWidth());
          newWindow.setY(currentWindow.getY());
          newWindow.show();


          change + to - to make it appear on left side

          • Thank you, but your answer brings me to another question - what if I will have to create multiple windows? Do I have to write them all down in one class or can I create a separate class for each of the windows?

          • @Nosmer You can do it both ways.If you want to create windows from a separate class then you have to pass a reference of other windows to the class so that new window can be displayed relative to other window
