JavaFX 2: Tables: display update after data update

Question

That is all I need to answer my last question .

If you look at my last question, you will see my class containing four fields corresponding to the four columns of my table

public static class ContactOptions { private final StringProperty one; private final StringProperty two; private final StringProperty three; private final StringProperty four; ContactOptions(String col1, String col2, String col3, String col4) { this.one = new StringProperty(col1); this.two = new StringProperty(col2); this.three = new StringProperty(col3); this.four = new StringProperty(col4); } public String getOne() { return one.get(); } public String getTwo() { return two.get(); } public String getThree() { return three.get(); } public String getFour() { return four.get(); } } 

How do I get the GUI to update after running ContactOptions.one.set ?

When I scroll down and make a backup, it updates. How can I update it without scrolling.

Answer 1

Perhaps you should use one of the following methods:

 updateTableColumn(TableColumn col) 

Updates the table associated with this TableCell.

 updateTableRow(TableRow tableRow) 

Updates the TableRow associated with this TableCell.

 updateTableView(TableView tv) 

Updates the TableView associated with this TableCell.

(From http://docs.oracle.com/javafx/2.0/api/javafx/scene/control/TableCell.html )

But I think that you have already dealt with this problem)

Answer 2

For smooth updates to work, you must initialize each property and add the xxxProperty method:

 private final StringProperty one = new SimpleIntegerProperty(); public StringProperty oneProperty() { return one; } 

From my own experience, do not use property names using upperCase letters such as "myOne" or "myONE", since the xxxProperty method xxxProperty not be run.

What JavaFX 2.0 build are you using? The reason I'm asking is because the tables have changed lately and I want to make sure that you are using the latest version.
