Chapter 12, Problem 8AW
Explanation of Solution
“VBox” Layout container:
- “VBox” layout pane is used to display nodes in a vertical row.
- Syntax: VBox vbox_Object = new VBox ();
- Setting alignment for VBox pane: Setting alignment for “VBox” pane is done by using the function “setAlignmnet()”.
Padding:
- In JavaFX, padding property is for managing the distance between the nodes and edges of the pane.
- It is also a space that appears around the inside edge of the container.
- Padding is done with the help of “setPadding ()” method.
- This method carries an “Insets” object as the argument. At the time of constructing “Insets” object, a pixel value is passed as its argument.
- The “Insets” class is in the package “javafx.geometry”.
- This method carries an “Insets” object as the argument. At the time of constructing “Insets” object, a pixel value is passed as its argument.
Example: Consider padding is done for “VBox” pane with 20 pixels.
myVbox.setPadding(new Insets(20));
Here, “myVbox” references “VBox” container object.
Step 1: Create an empty “VBox” container and name its object as “vbox”...

Dice Simulator Create an application that simulates rolling a pair of dice. When the user clicks a button, the application should generate two random numbers, each in the range of 1 through 6, to represent the value of the dice. Use PictureBox controls to display the dice. (In the Student Sample Programs, in the Chap05 folder, you will find six images named Die1.bmp, Die2.bmp, Die3.bmp, Die4.bmp, Die5.bmp, and Die6.bmp that you can use in the PictureBoxes.)
