Hi I'm trying to create a simple layout that looks like this using JavaFX.
I would like the user to be able to drag/resize the middle bar. I've tried to make this using a GridPane. But I can't figure out how to get the middle resized. Perhaps GridPane is not the way to go. Both panes will contain a lot of other program code later on. Thanks!
Rectangle2D primaryScreenBounds = Screen.getPrimary().getVisualBounds();
stageRef.setMaxWidth(primaryScreenBounds.getWidth());
stageRef.setMaxHeight(primaryScreenBounds.getHeight());
GridPane gridPane = new GridPane();
gridPane.setGridLinesVisible(true);
gridPane.setPadding(new Insets(10));
Scene scene = new Scene(gridPane);
VBox vBoxMain = new VBox();
vBoxMain.setPrefWidth((primaryScreenBounds.getWidth()/5)*4);
vBoxMain.setPrefHeight(primaryScreenBounds.getHeight());
TextArea textArea = new TextArea();
textArea.setWrapText(true);
textArea.setPrefHeight(primaryScreenBounds.getHeight());
vBoxMain.getChildren().addAll(textArea);
vBoxMain.isResizable();
VBox vBoxSide = new VBox();
vBoxSide.setPrefWidth((primaryScreenBounds.getWidth()/5));
vBoxSide.setPrefHeight(primaryScreenBounds.getHeight());
vBoxSide.isResizable();
gridPane.add(vBoxSide, 1,1,1,1);
gridPane.add(vBoxMain, 2,1,4,1);
stageRef.setScene(scene);
stageRef.show();
