MFXProgressBar not updating progress visually

[mica-alex]

Hi,

I am having an issue updating the progress bar to be any value besides indeterminate. I have run a debug on my application and verified the following:

1. progressBar.setProgress( value ); is called from the JavaFX thread
2. The internal progressBar.progress and progressBar.indeterminate values appear to be properly updated.
   
   
3. The value specified to progressBar.setProgress( value ) is either the indeterminate value, or is between 0.0 and 1.0.
   
   
4. I have verified that the standard JavaFX progress bar does not experience this behavior, when swapped with the MFXProgressBar (no other code changes)

Despite everything being called and set correctly (I believe), the progress bar always shows as indeterminate in my application.

Hello,
Can you provide a reproducible example please?

Hello @palexdev,

I have created a very basic/simple JavaFX application that can reproduce the errorproblem. This basic/simple application uses the same library versions and JavaFX structure I use in the full application.

I did the work in IntelliJ IDEA, although I includes the pom.xml file for Maven as well. All that is required is to run GUIWindow.main(), as that extends the JavaFX Application class.

Got it, there's a missing listener in the skin
The fix will be included in the next release

Amazing, thank you for the prompt responses and fixes! I am excited for the next release.

Hi,

Just to follow up on this, I saw a similar behavior when updating the items on the ComboBox. I do not have a reproducible example of that one though, because I ended up needing to switch GUIs and come back, which bypassed the issue. I’m not sure if I was doing something incorrectly, but I figured I’d mention it.

Again, thank you for the super quick responses and handling. I’m transitioning my entire application to MaterialFX now because of the ease of use, and I no longer need a collection of add-exports compiler arguments as with JFoenix. Amazing work with MaterialFX!

Can at least tell me if it was LegacyComboBox or the new one?
By updating items you mean changing the items list?

[mica-alex]

Sorry for not clarifying. It is the new combo box, and it is when updating items in the items list

[palexdev]

Got it, forgot to add the listeners to the items property in case they change
Will fix it in the next release

Great! Thank you again. I'm glad I found this project.

Fixed in latest release
