Scaling UI to fit application window using JavaFX and SceneBuilder 8 - java

We're currently developing a social media platform as a project at school (to be handed in in 2 weeks), and we've ran into some issues when trying to get the UI to scale with the application window. Currently it works as supposed when previewing it in SceneBuilder (see the first link) , but it seems to be stuck in the upper left corner when running the actual application via IntelliJ IDEA. I've also linked a screenshot of how it's actual behavior is (second link).
This is how the scaling should work, and as you can see it does work when i use SceneBuilder's preview function.
This is how the scaling is working when we run the app, which isn't scaling at all.
At the moment we're just trying to understand whats wrong, therefore our only focus is the 'discover page' of the platform (you access the page from the events page). So i will post the fxml code for the discover page as well as the events controller. Bare in mind this is my first ever post on here, so if there's anything else that could help you help us just tell me and i'll get it uploaded! Here is a screenshot of all the classes in our project, if there's any other class that would be helpful if i post just say the word :)
All classes in the project.

So far i've read probably all the posts in here that are issues remotely like ours, but none of them have seemed to work. I haven't been able to find a post stating the exact same issue as ours, where the preview window in SceneBuilder works as supposed and the program when we run it doesn't. I hope someone can help us out, thanks in advance! :)

I searched online for problems, i found all of the issues that has been offered online are not similar to mine at least from what i understood. I fixed some things that were in my code. However, it still did not solve the issue for me. Please i need help fixing this issue.
You are using Gluons com.gluonhq.charm.glisten.control.ToggleButtonGroup from their mobile tooling. Do you really want to do that? Maybe using the standard JavaFX ToggleGroup would be sufficient. If you really want to use Gluons lib then you have to add this implementation 'com.gluonhq:charm-glisten:6.2.2' to your dependencies. But note, that glisten is a proprietary offering with a different license than JavaFX.

Why am I getting the javafx.fxml.LoadException when in previous versions I've had no problem?

I'm running an FXML project and I can't load my fxml files, IntelliJ keeps indicating there is something wrong with my AnchorPane tag, however this was all generated by scene builder. This error even shows up for fxml files created by IntelliJ. The issue seems to be xmlns="http://javafx.com/javafx/19" within the AnchorPane tag at least that's where the compiler is pointing to.
I'm running IntelliJ 2022 with JDK 17.0.4.1 with JavaFX 19 using Maven, and I'm using scene builder 19.
here is my fxml code
`
<?import javafx.scene.layout.AnchorPane?>

`
and here is my java code
`

}catch(Exception e){
System.out.println("Failed to load login.fxml");
System.out.println("Exception: " + e.toString());
}
}
}
`
uri is non-null so there appears to be no problem with the file path.
Previously I've had the "uri not registered" error before I deleted the javaFX files included with Maven, and used a local copy of the JavaFX19 library, along with the proper JVM arguments.
Note: the image I included is from a previous version of my project. Under resources "controllers" is actually supposed to be "views".
Ok, so the issue was with the fx:controller reference. My controller class was not within src/main/java/com.example.scheduler.
After moving it there the error ceased.

Setting a Textfield in MainController through Controller Instance Reference in another file

Im trying to set the Text of a Textfield in my MainController from another file.
I read that this:
FXMLLoader loader = new FXMLLoader(getClass().getResource("main.fxml"));
MainController mc = (MainController) loader.getController();

The reason why you are getting the NullPointerException is because the Main.mc is null at the point where you are trying to access it fields in UserConfig.
In the line where you load your main.fxml Parent root = FXMLLoader.load(getClass().getResource("main.fxml")); the initialize() method in the controller MainController is invoked and at that point you are invoking userConfig.initialize() which also make a backward reference to Main.mc which at that point is null.
You can make the config public in your MainController class and initialize user config after you set the mc field in the Main class. Or you can inject the MainController as parameter into the UserConfig initialize method.
Main.java
FXMLLoader loader = new FXMLLoader(getClass().getResource("main.fxml"));
Parent root = (Parent) loader.load();
Scene scene = new Scene(root,348,212);
scene.getStylesheets().add(getClass().getResource("application.css").toExternalForm());
primaryStage.setScene(scene);
primaryStage.setTitle("Flextime calculator");
primaryStage.getIcons().add(new Image(getClass().getResourceAsStream("assets/icon.png")));
primaryStage.setResizable(false);
mc = (MainController) loader.getController();
mc.config.initialize();
MainController.java
public UserConfig config = new UserConfig();
#FXML
public void initialize() {
//remove the config.initialize(); from here
}

JAVAFX javafx.fxml.LoadException simple login page

Getting LoadExeption evertime i try to run this code.
the code ran fine the first time but after that i just keep getting this error.
Its just a simple login page with not much coding what so ever.
Main class below
package application;
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.fxml.FXMLLoader;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
import javafx.scene.Parent;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.layout.BorderPane;
public class Main extends Application {
#Override
public void start(Stage primaryStage) {
try {
Parent root=FXMLLoader.load(getClass().getResource("/application/Login.fxml"));
Scene scene = new Scene(root,400,400);
scene.getStylesheets().add(getClass().getResource("application.css").toExternalForm());
primaryStage.setScene(scene);
primaryStage.show();
} catch(Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
launch(args); // tried changing this to string[0] didnt work
}
}
Main controller class below i wanted to add more sql stuff to this but i keep getting the same error.
In this i am just trying to change
package application;
import java.awt.Label;
import java.awt.TextField;
import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
import javafx.fxml.FXML;
public class MainController {
#FXML
private Label LblStatus;
#FXML
private TextField TxtUsername;
#FXML
private TextField TxtPassword;
public void Login(ActionEvent event)
{
LblStatus.setText("Login sucsess");
}
}
login page
All of this was created using scene builder and youtube.
so i basically have no idea why i am getting this error.

You have the wrong imports in your controller. Replace
import java.awt.Label;
with
import javafx.scene.control.Label ;
etc...

Javafx program error when controller class is added

I'm building an application using JavaFx and scene builder, however everything works fine, except when I add the Controller class.
I get the following error:
Exception in Application start method Exception in thread "main"

You controller have to implement Initializable, Try with the following :
public class Controller implement Initializable{

public Button trueButton;
#FXML
public Button falseButton;
#FXML
public Label playerLabel;
#FXML
public Label questionLabel;
#FXML
public Label scoreValue;
#FXML
public ImageView questionImage;
#FXML
public Rectangle redBar;
#FXML
public Rectangle greenBar;
//Create array for level 1 questions
String[][] levelOneData = {
{"This is a Sequence Diagram","f", null},
{"This diagram is for a database","t", null},
{"This is a rack diagram","t", null},
{"This is a flow chart","f", null},
{"This is a kind of UML diagram","t", null}
};
Image[] levelOneImages = new Image[] {
new Image("res/images/l1q1.png"),
new Image("res/images/l1q2.png"),
new Image("res/images/l1q3.png"),
new Image("res/images/l1q4.png"),
new Image("res/images/l1q5.png")
};
public void levelOneInitializer(){
questionLabel.setText(levelOneData[0][0]);
questionImage.setImage(levelOneImages[0]);
System.out.println("done");
}
}
