CodeArea Jump to a Specific Line

[mellwa]

Hi Tomas,

Thank you for the quick reply in email. I tried moveTo(int) before but it didn't work. The file still shows the first line.
CodeArea codeArea = new CodeArea();
codeArea.setParagraphGraphicFactory(LineNumberFactory.get(codeArea));
codeArea.appendText(content);
codeArea.setWrapText(true);
codeArea.moveTo(1000);

Scene scene1 = new Scene(codeArea, 800, 600);
Stage stage = new Stage();
stage.setTitle(objects[0].toString());
stage.setScene(scene1);
stage.show();

Also, the moveTo() method seems like only accept int value but codeArea.position(x, 0) gives a Position type value. Is there any other way to jump to a specific line?

You are right, it should be

codeArea.position(x, 0).toOffset()

moveTo() doesn't work on startup again because skin hasn't been initialized. Try to put it inside a Platform.runLater() and after stage.show():

stage.show();
Platform.runLater(() -> codeArea.moveTo(codeArea.position(1000, 0).toOffset()));

It works! Thank you, Tomas!
