Class ChoiceBoxListCell<T>

  • Type Parameters:
    T - The type of the elements contained within the ListView.
    All Implemented Interfaces:
    Styleable, EventTarget, Skinnable
    public class ChoiceBoxListCell<T>
extends ListCell<T>
    A class containing a ListCell implementation that draws a ChoiceBox node inside the cell.

    By default, the ChoiceBoxListCell is rendered as a Label when not being edited, and as a ChoiceBox when in editing mode. The ChoiceBox will, by default, stretch to fill the entire list cell.

    To create a ChoiceBoxListCell, it is necessary to provide zero or more items that will be shown to the user when the ChoiceBox menu is showing. These items must be of the same type as the ListView items sequence, such that upon selection, they replace the existing value in the items list.
