I have a layout of three panels in an HBox. The first and second are 100px wide and the third is 100%. I need to show/hide the middle panel. When this happens I would like the third panel to move/resize to fill the space. The problem is I have tried using view states/transitions and just moveEffect/resizeEffect, but it all looks horrible. Below is an example of the layout. Is there a better/different way to do this that would give me a nice effect?
