ControlsFX has a CustomTextField component that allows for nodes to be placed on the left / right of a normal TextField, without overlapping the text. I would probably use that internally along with some custom code to render the individual tags in an HBox on the left.

Hi,

how would one go about implementing (i.e. use which api) a tagging
control (e.g. like http://xoxco.com/projects/code/tagsinput/) in JFX
or is this already available in an existing extension library?

Is this easily done with a bit of text parsing and CSS magic or as
fiddely as building a rich text editor or does it even make sense to
build this by integrating a web component and using an existing
javascript-based solution (which feels a bit odd)?

Thanks in advance for any opinions/pointers.

Robert
