TiwulFX-Dock provides enhanced JavaFX TabPane that supports tab reordering, detaching and docking.
Check latest release version in maven repo. Maven dependency:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.panemu</groupId>
<artifactId>tiwulfx-dock</artifactId>
<version>${version.tiwulfx-docx}</version>
</dependency>
Wrap DetachableTabPane inside a SplitPane. Below is an example in FXML file:
<SplitPane VBox.vgrow="ALWAYS">
<items>
<DetachableTabPane fx:id="myTabPane" />
</items>
</SplitPane>
Then if the java class file has a variable holding reference to the DetachableTabPane, then add this
myTabPane.setOnClosedPassSibling((sibling) -> myTabPane = sibling);
All of the following customization examples are shown in the demo projects.
When a tab is detached, a stage is created. Set the owner of the stage with this code:
myTabPane.setStageOwnerFactory((stage) -> getScene().getWindow());
To customize how detached stage looks like, use custom scene factor as follow:
myTabPane.setSceneFactory((param) -> {
FrmScope1 frm = new FrmScope1();
SplitPane sp = new SplitPane(param);
VBox.setVgrow(sp, Priority.ALWAYS);
frm.getChildren().add(sp);
Scene scene1 = new Scene(frm);
return scene1;
});
Take a look at styles in tiwulfx-dock.css. Provide your own version of the styles to override the style of drop guiding path and adjacent drop buttons. For a further customization of the drag-drop indicator, extends TabDropHint class and supply the instance of it to the tab pane:
myTabPane.setDropHint(new CustomDropHint());
All these customization examples are shown in the demo projects.
