groovyfx multiple scenes

I'm trying to implement multipage application with groovyfx and i'm stuck with the scene changing. Suppose i have the following code:

start {
  stage(id: 'stageId', title: 'sometitle'){
      scene(id:'scene1'){
          button(text:'goto scene 2', onAction: {/* i guess i should do something here` */})
      }
      scene(id:'scene2'){
          label(text:'this is scene 2')
      }
  }
}

what should i put to button's action to be able to go to scene 2?

Solution

  • You should be able to do:

    stageId.scene = scene2

    Behind the scenes, that will get the element with the id stageId (the main stage), and then call setScene( scene2 ) (where scene2 is the id of the second scene)

    Hope this explains it :-)
