I want to change the color of a Pane
which I get as a String
from user.
How can I set this String
as a background color in my pane?
Code:
colorField.setOnKeyTyped(new EventHandler<KeyEvent>() {
@Override
public void handle(KeyEvent t) {
color = colorField.getText();
}
});
If you really just want to know how to accomplish that particular thing, I'd suggest the following:
Set the Nodes' CSS like this, using the hexacolor that was entered by the user:
String enteredByUser = "abcdef";
yournode.setStyle("-fx-background-color: #" + enteredByUser);
If you want to know more please be more specific with you questions and provide some code samples.
Since you tagged this question with 'javafx-8' i'll provide that code example as well(only works in javafx 8):
yournode.setBackground(new Background(new BackgroundFill(Color.web("#" + enteredByUser), CornerRadii.EMPTY, Insets.EMPTY)));
Hope it helps,
Laurenz
