I was trying to find a spinner component like JSpinner to use in my JavaFX application but there is no such component.
What JavaFX component do you recommend me to use in place of a spinner?

You can also check and follow my initial approach to the spinner implementation problem, which you can find here: https://github.com/bluevoxel/Custom_Spinner_JavaFX8/wiki
And thats how it looks like:
Its functionality is constantly expanding, so I will be very grateful for your feedback.
UPDATE 4/11/2014
There is a new version available with expanded functionality including
double
s, additional customizableContextMenu
class for choosing theincrementation value
, additional method for uploading custom functionality toincrease/decrease
buttons. Check the link below to know more:https://gist.github.com/bluevoxel/c730a101ba812728a235
Also, there is a new outlook lack of external image files:
JavaFX 8 has a Spinner class. (but earlier versions haven't)
Update for Java 8
JavaFX 8 has now an in-built Spinner class as part of the core JavaFX library (as mentioned in SWdV's answer to this question).
Old (pre-Java 8) Answer
There is a spinner control in the JFXtras library, you could use that implementation or possibly adapt it to your needs.
A spinner control is proposed for inclusion in a future JavaFX version. The target version is currently unspecified, so perhaps it won't even be released with Java 8. The proposed spinner control has a usability design document. The open-jfx project may accept a quality implementation of the usability design for inclusion into the core JavaFX platform or the JavaFX UI Control Sandbox.
