JFXComboBox incremental search #1260

Open valimaties opened 1 year ago

valimaties commented 1 year ago

Hi. I love to see the incremental search in JFXComboBox control when it is not Editable. So user cannot write in the text area, but will be very nice to be able to press letters on the keyboard and the combobox to search for the "inserted" text, and if the sequence of the keys typed from the keyboard was found, then the background of the text to be set as another colour. I've saw this in some controls on the web application, I think this could be made using CellFactory. Intercepting the key event, it may be written in a invisible TextField, and in the CellFactory class the text of the TextField can be used as the text to be displayed with another background if it is found in the items collection. Someone with a good coding skills in JavaFX? 😁

Is this project maintained ? There are a lot of issues without any feedback, I want to know if this could be use in the future or should we search for other solutions?

Hi,

No, this project is not maintained anymore.

There is far more activity on the MaterialFx repository : https://github.com/palexdev/MaterialFX
