B4J Question Possible to set [vertical] scrollbar position to left side?

[m4.s]

..for B4J's supported JavaFX controls (e.g. listview, webview, htmleditor).

You can set the form orientation to RIGHT_TO_LEFT. It will invert the layout.

Is it possible change the width of a scrollbar?

Thanks Erel. However, that form orientation change affects all the controls added to it.

For my B4J application, however, I want to conditionally change the position of only a single listview's vertical scrollbar.

As such, I've tried to set this listview's ID to a class ("LeftLV") defined in my main form's override CSS, in these 2 different ways:

#LeftLV .scroll-bar:vertical {
-fx-direction: rtl;
}

and

#LeftLV .scroll-bar:vertical {
-fx-alignment: LEFT;
}

but neither definition worked (and debug console yielded no errors).


Other suggestions?

Put the ListView in a Pane and change the Pane's orientation.

That worked too Erel.

But it's still not what I need, because the listview items' orientation is now right-to-left as well.

If I cannot only change the position of the listview's vertical scrollbar, I'm just going to scrap this specific user-interface "nicety" (for left-handed mouse users) in my B4J application.

Thanks, and know that your [always] fast and helpful support is much appreciated.

I don't think that there is any other way to move the scrollbar to the left.
