This is my first day of actual Pivot programming, and I created a login
screen that has some TextInput fields. I want the first field to be
focused when the form opens, so I did it like this:
public class LoginFrame extends Frame implements Bindable {
@BXML TextInput hostname;
public void open(Display display, Window owner) {
super.open(display, owner);
hostname.requestFocus();
}
}
This works, but I'm thinking there must be a smoother way, like setting
a property on the TextInput when I declare it in my BXML maybe?
I understand that I cannot request focus for the component in the
Bindable#initialize() method, since the component isn't actually
displaying at the time of initialization, but maybe there is a way for
the framework to sort this out by looking at a property or something
when it is first displayed?
