JavaFX controls, menus and events

1. JAVA FX:

JavaFX is widely used to deploy client-side applications to provide rich


user interface. Its libraries consist of a set of graphics and media
packages. For designing, testing and creating web applications.

JavaFx Controls

It consists of user interface elements. It includes UI


elements,Layouts,behaviour. Theses are the visual components that user
interact with. Commonly used controls are Label, Button, Colour Picker,
CheckBox,radioButton,TextField,Buttons,Slider,e.t.c

JavaFX Menu

JavaFX consists of a separate MenuClass to display Menu.  In


JavaFX, javafx.scene.control.Menu class provides all the methods to
deal with menus. This class needs to be instantiated to create a Menu.

JavaFX Event Handling


In JavaFX, we can develop GUI applications, web applications and graphical
applications. In such applications, whenever a user interacts with the
application (nodes), an event is said to have been occurred.
For example, clicking on a button, moving the mouse, entering a character
through keyboard, selecting an item from list, scrolling the page are the
activities that causes an event to happen.
Foreground events are the most common events.
2) Webpage

The webpage is created using JavaFX in Eclipse IDE. There is a Menu Bar
at the top, which is Created using MenuBar object. There are two
Buttons at the bottom of the page, on clicking, the text gets
displayed.setOnAction() method is used to perform this Action.
