Hi, You are supposed to interact with Nodes who are currently shown in the SG only only the JavaFX Application Thread.
JavaFX although is not checking each and every property (change) as this would be too resource intensive but at sensitive cases (eg when interacting with Glass) it does check that you run on the correct thread. Even though your TableView, ... updates seem to work you can run into disasterous states - see eg https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8198577 Tom On 10.11.18 06:58, Ty Young wrote: > Hi, > > > My JavaFX program updates API objects in the background via a non FX > thread that, when changed by another program, are reflected in my JavaFX > GUI's controls by property binding, specifically TableView, Slider, > TextField, and ComboBox.
