I have an issue with my tableView. My tableview has two columns and rows inside second one are file paths. So i would like to implement scrollbar to see whole path by scrolling, because tableView size is fixed.
I've added setColumnResizePolicy(TableView.UNCONSTRAINED_RESIZE_POLICY); It shows scrollbar, but i cant move it.
Is there any functional solution?
Since it isn't possible to upload an image into a comment I'm posting one in an answer. I just want to make sure you knew what I meant in my comment. If you did and/or this doesn't help you, let me know and I'll delete this answer.
This is what I meant by increasing the column width via the UI. As shown in the GIF, I did have to scroll a little to the right before I was able to resize the second column. This is probably because there are like 1 or 2 pixels "off screen" when the table is first rendered.
Here is the code I used to create this example (Java 10):
public class TestApplication extends Application {
@Override
@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
public void start(Stage primaryStage) throws Exception {
var table = new TableView<>(FXCollections.observableArrayList(
new Person("John", "SomeGuyWithAReallyObnoxiouslyLongLastName"),
new Person("Jane", "Smith")
));
var firstNameCol = new TableColumn<Person, String>("First Name");
firstNameCol.setCellValueFactory(v -> v.getValue().firstNameProperty());
var lastNameCol = new TableColumn<Person, String>("Last Name");
lastNameCol.setCellValueFactory(v -> v.getValue().lastNameProperty());
table.getColumns().addAll(firstNameCol, lastNameCol);
table.setColumnResizePolicy(TableView.UNCONSTRAINED_RESIZE_POLICY);
primaryStage.setOnShown(we -> {
we.consume();
firstNameCol.setPrefWidth(table.getWidth() / 2.0);
lastNameCol.setPrefWidth(table.getWidth() / 2.0);
});
var root = new StackPane(table);
root.setPadding(new Insets(30.0));
var scene = new Scene(root, 560.0, 360.0);
primaryStage.setScene(scene);
primaryStage.setTitle("People");
// primaryStage.setResizable(false);
primaryStage.show();
}
public static class Person {
private final StringProperty firstName = new SimpleStringProperty(this, "firstName");
public final void setFirstName(String name) { firstName.set(name); }
public final String getFirstName() { return firstName.get(); }
public final StringProperty firstNameProperty() { return firstName; }
private final StringProperty lastName = new SimpleStringProperty(this, "lastName");
public final void setLastName(String name) { lastName.set(name); }
public final String getLastName() { return lastName.get(); }
public final StringProperty lastNameProperty() { return lastName; }
public Person(String firstName, String lastName) {
setFirstName(firstName);
setLastName(lastName);
}
}
}
