Java FX MDI Window

JavaFX version of Swing JDesktopPane which can be used as a container for individual "child" similar to JInternalFrames frames.

You can minimize the child frame, and an icon of it is located on the bottom of the container pane similar to Windows task bar.

You can have several child frames and they can overlap each other.

These children cannot be moved outside the container.

Very good component! I am making my own email client just for myself because all modern ones are too hard to use. Too many tabs, too much scrolling, cannot see multiple messages at once etc. Your library is really helping me to create email client thats comfortable to use. I have a grid for listing messages and when I click on them, full version shows in a separate MDI window for every message under it, thanks to you.

Is it possible to specify where the new MDI window will appear? Right not it is always in center so if the box is too large it resizes the parent vbox breaking overall application layout until I manually drag it up. Can also be slightly difficult to quickly open multiple ones and then drag them around later because they are all on top of each other. Not as important as the first problem though.

Lincoln, mandou bem demais! Parabéns pelo trabalho. Procurei por este recurso e foi ótimo encontrar seu trabalho. Também estou procurando por recursos de interface no FX como Tabbled para decidir qual usar em um projeto. Se souber de algo que seja dinâmico e bem feito como o seu, responda meu post por favor. Grande abraço.
