Re: Integrating JFX Dialog/Stage in Swing application
Platform.setImplicitExit(false)
This is the correct answer. Please see the javadoc for more details.

Good to know that you have used this quite a bit. So I'll try using it
until someone brings up a nicer solution or I run into any problems

Application class to launch the application, the FX runtime is
initialized by the launcher before the Application class is loaded.
For Swing applications that use JFXPanel to display FX content, the FX
runtime is initialized when the first JFXPanel instance is

So this is consistent. Still I am wondering, why it should not be
supported to just trigger opening a stage from a Swing menu? Either by
Platform.runLater autoinitializing or offering a separate method like
Platform.ensureInitialized().
Am I missing something obvious?

Re: Integrating JFX Dialog/Stage in Swing application
Hi Robert, the problem with this is that the stage cannot have a swing window as its owner. If users misclick the stage will hide behind your main window. But if that is acceptable... Werner On 31.05.2014 14:27, Robert Krüger wrote: have a Swing JMenuItem trigger the showing of a JFX stage
