    @DefaultProperty("items")
    public class TableView<S>
    extends Control

The TableView control is designed to visualize an unlimited number of rows of data, broken out into columns. A TableView is therefore very similar to the `ListView` control, with the addition of support for columns. For an example on how to create a TableView, refer to the 'Creating a TableView' control section below.

The TableView control has a number of features, including:

- Powerful `TableColumn` API:
  - Support for `cell factories` to easily customize `cell` contents in both rendering and editing states.
  - Specification of `minWidth`/ `prefWidth`/ `maxWidth`, and also `fixed width columns`.
  - Width resizing by the user at runtime.
  - Column reordering by the user at runtime.
  - Built-in support for `column nesting`
- Different `resizing policies` to dictate what happens when the user resizes columns.
- Support for `multiple column sorting` by clicking the column header (hold down Shift keyboard key whilst clicking on a header to sort by multiple columns).

Note that TableView is intended to be used to visualize data - it is not intended to be used for laying out your user interface. If you want to lay your user interface out in a grid-like fashion, consider the `GridPane` layout instead.

## Creating a TableView

Creating a TableView is a multi-step process, and also depends on the underlying data model needing to be represented. For this example we'll use an ObservableList<Person>, as it is the simplest way of showing data in a TableView. The `Person` class will consist of a first name and last name properties. That is:

     public class Person {
         private StringProperty firstName;
         public void setFirstName(String value) { firstNameProperty().set(value); }
         public String getFirstName() { return firstNameProperty().get(); }
         public StringProperty firstNameProperty() {
             if (firstName == null) firstName = new SimpleStringProperty(this, "firstName");
             return firstName;
         }

         private StringProperty lastName;
         public void setLastName(String value) { lastNameProperty().set(value); }
         public String getLastName() { return lastNameProperty().get(); }
         public StringProperty lastNameProperty() {
             if (lastName == null) lastName = new SimpleStringProperty(this, "lastName");
             return lastName;
         }

         public Person(String firstName, String lastName) {
             setFirstName(firstName);
             setLastName(lastName);
         }
     }

The data we will use for this example is:

     List<Person> members = List.of(
         new Person("William", "Reed"),
         new Person("James", "Michaelson"),
         new Person("Julius", "Dean"));

Firstly, we need to create a data model. As mentioned, for this example, we'll be using an ObservableList<Person>:

     ObservableList<Person> teamMembers = FXCollections.observableArrayList(members);

Then we create a TableView instance:

     TableView<Person> table = new TableView<>();
     table.setItems(teamMembers);

With the items set as such, TableView will automatically update whenever the `teamMembers` list changes. If the items list is available before the TableView is instantiated, it is possible to pass it directly into the constructor:

     TableView<Person> table = new TableView<>(teamMembers);

At this point we now have a TableView hooked up to observe the `teamMembers` observableList. The missing ingredient now is the means of splitting out the data contained within the model and representing it in one or more `TableColumn` instances. To create a two-column TableView to show the firstName and lastName properties, we extend the last code sample as follows:

     TableColumn<Person, String> firstNameCol = new TableColumn<>("First Name");
     firstNameCol.setCellValueFactory(new PropertyValueFactory<>(members.get(0).firstNameProperty().getName())));
     TableColumn<Person, String> lastNameCol = new TableColumn<>("Last Name");
     lastNameCol.setCellValueFactory(new PropertyValueFactory<>(members.get(0).lastNameProperty().getName())));

     table.getColumns().setAll(firstNameCol, lastNameCol);

With the code shown above we have fully defined the minimum properties required to create a TableView instance. Running this code will result in the TableView being shown with two columns for firstName and lastName. Any other properties of the Person class will not be shown, as no TableColumns are defined.

### TableView support for classes that don't contain properties

The code shown above is the shortest possible code for creating a TableView when the domain objects are designed with JavaFX properties in mind (additionally, `PropertyValueFactory` supports normal JavaBean properties too, although there is a caveat to this, so refer to the class documentation for more information). When this is not the case, it is necessary to provide a custom cell value factory. More information about cell value factories can be found in the `TableColumn` API documentation, but briefly, here is how a TableColumn could be specified:

     firstNameCol.setCellValueFactory(new Callback<CellDataFeatures<Person, String>, ObservableValue<String>>() {
         public ObservableValue<String> call(CellDataFeatures<Person, String> p) {
             // p.getValue() returns the Person instance for a particular TableView row
             return p.getValue().firstNameProperty();
         }
     });

     // or with a lambda expression:
     firstNameCol.setCellValueFactory(p -> p.getValue().firstNameProperty());

### TableView Selection / Focus APIs

To track selection and focus, it is necessary to become familiar with the `SelectionModel` and `FocusModel` classes. A TableView has at most one instance of each of these classes, available from `selectionModel` and `focusModel` properties respectively. Whilst it is possible to use this API to set a new selection model, in most circumstances this is not necessary - the default selection and focus models should work in most circumstances.

The default `SelectionModel` used when instantiating a TableView is an implementation of the `MultipleSelectionModel` abstract class. However, as noted in the API documentation for the `selectionMode` property, the default value is `SelectionMode.SINGLE`. To enable multiple selection in a default TableView instance, it is therefore necessary to do the following:

     tableView.getSelectionModel().setSelectionMode(SelectionMode.MULTIPLE);

### Customizing TableView Visuals

The visuals of the TableView can be entirely customized by replacing the default `row factory`. A row factory is used to generate `TableRow` instances, which are used to represent an entire row in the TableView.

In many cases, this is not what is desired however, as it is more commonly the case that cells be customized on a per-column basis, not a per-row basis. It is therefore important to note that a `TableRow` is not a `TableCell`. A `TableRow` is simply a container for zero or more `TableCell`, and in most circumstances it is more likely that you'll want to create custom TableCells, rather than TableRows. The primary use case for creating custom TableRow instances would most probably be to introduce some form of column spanning support.

You can create custom `TableCell` instances per column by assigning the appropriate function to the TableColumn `cell factory` property.

See the `Cell` class documentation for a more complete description of how to write custom Cells.

### Sorting

Prior to JavaFX 8.0, the TableView control would treat the `items` list as the view model, meaning that any changes to the list would be immediately reflected visually. TableView would also modify the order of this list directly when a user initiated a sort. This meant that (again, prior to JavaFX 8.0) it was not possible to have the TableView return to an unsorted state (after iterating through ascending and descending orders).

Starting with JavaFX 8.0 (and the introduction of `SortedList`), it is now possible to have the collection return to the unsorted state when there are no columns as part of the TableView `sort order`. To do this, you must create a SortedList instance, and bind its `comparator` property to the TableView `comparator` property, list so:

     // create a SortedList based on the provided ObservableList
     SortedList sortedList = new SortedList(FXCollections.observableArrayList(2, 1, 3));

     // create a TableView with the sorted list set as the items it will show
     final TableView<Integer> tableView = new TableView<>(sortedList);

     // bind the sortedList comparator to the TableView comparator
     sortedList.comparatorProperty().bind(tableView.comparatorProperty());

     // Don't forget to define columns!

### Editing

This control supports inline editing of values, and this section attempts to give an overview of the available APIs and how you should use them.

Firstly, cell editing most commonly requires a different user interface than when a cell is not being edited. This is the responsibility of the `Cell` implementation being used. For TableView, it is highly recommended that editing be `per-TableColumn`, rather than `per row`, as more often than not you want users to edit each column value differently, and this approach allows for editors specific to each column. It is your choice whether the cell is permanently in an editing state (e.g. this is common for `CheckBox` cells), or to switch to a different UI when editing begins (e.g. when a double-click is received on a cell).

To know when editing has been requested on a cell, simply override the `Cell.startEdit()` method, and update the cell `text` and `graphic` properties as appropriate (e.g. set the text to null and set the graphic to be a `TextField`). Additionally, you should also override `Cell.cancelEdit()` to reset the UI back to its original visual state when the editing concludes. In both cases it is important that you also ensure that you call the super method to have the cell perform all duties it must do to enter or exit its editing mode.

Once your cell is in an editing state, the next thing you are most probably interested in is how to commit or cancel the editing that is taking place. This is your responsibility as the cell factory provider. Your cell implementation will know when the editing is over, based on the user input (e.g. when the user presses the Enter or ESC keys on their keyboard). When this happens, it is your responsibility to call `Cell.commitEdit(Object)` or `Cell.cancelEdit()`, as appropriate.

When you call `Cell.commitEdit(Object)` an event is fired to the TableView, which you can observe by adding an `EventHandler` via `TableColumn.setOnEditCommit(javafx.event.EventHandler)`. Similarly, you can also observe edit events for `edit start` and `edit cancel`.

By default the TableColumn edit commit handler is non-null, with a default handler that attempts to overwrite the property value for the item in the currently-being-edited row. It is able to do this as the `Cell.commitEdit(Object)` method is passed in the new value, and this is passed along to the edit commit handler via the `CellEditEvent` that is fired. It is simply a matter of calling `TableColumn.CellEditEvent.getNewValue()` to retrieve this value.

It is very important to note that if you call `TableColumn.setOnEditCommit(javafx.event.EventHandler)` with your own `EventHandler`, then you will be removing the default handler. Unless you then handle the writeback to the property (or the relevant data source), nothing will happen. You can work around this by using the `TableColumnBase.addEventHandler(javafx.event.EventType, javafx.event.EventHandler)` method to add a `TableColumn.editCommitEvent()` `EventType` with your desired `EventHandler` as the second argument. Using this method, you will not replace the default implementation, but you will be notified when an edit commit has occurred.

Hopefully this summary answers some of the commonly asked questions. Fortunately, JavaFX ships with a number of pre-built cell factories that handle all the editing requirements on your behalf. You can find these pre-built cell factories in the javafx.scene.control.cell package.

- ## Property Details

  - ### items

    public final ObjectProperty<ObservableList<S>> itemsProperty
    The underlying data model for the TableView. Note that it has a generic type that must match the type of the TableView itself.
    See Also:
      `getItems()`, `setItems(ObservableList)`

  - ### tableMenuButtonVisible

    public final BooleanProperty tableMenuButtonVisibleProperty
    This controls whether a menu button is available when the user clicks in a designated space within the TableView, within which is a radio menu item for each TableColumn in this table. This menu allows for the user to show and hide all TableColumns easily.
    See Also:
      `isTableMenuButtonVisible()`, `setTableMenuButtonVisible(boolean)`

  - ### columnResizePolicy

    public final ObjectProperty<Callback<TableView.ResizeFeatures,​Boolean>> columnResizePolicyProperty
    Called when the user completes a column-resize operation. The two most common policies are available as static functions in the TableView class: `UNCONSTRAINED_RESIZE_POLICY` and `CONSTRAINED_RESIZE_POLICY`.
    See Also:
      `getColumnResizePolicy()`, `setColumnResizePolicy(Callback)`

  - ### rowFactory

    public final ObjectProperty<Callback<TableView<S>,​TableRow<S>>> rowFactoryProperty
    A function which produces a TableRow. The system is responsible for reusing TableRows. Return from this function a TableRow which might be usable for representing a single row in a TableView.

    Note that a TableRow is not a TableCell. A TableRow is simply a container for a TableCell, and in most circumstances it is more likely that you'll want to create custom TableCells, rather than TableRows. The primary use case for creating custom TableRow instances would most probably be to introduce some form of column spanning support.

    You can create custom TableCell instances per column by assigning the appropriate function to the cellFactory property in the TableColumn class.

    See Also:
      `getRowFactory()`, `setRowFactory(Callback)`

  - ### placeholder

    public final ObjectProperty<Node> placeholderProperty
    This Node is shown to the user when the table has no content to show. This may be the case because the table model has no data in the first place, that a filter has been applied to the table model, resulting in there being nothing to show the user, or that there are no currently visible columns.
    See Also:
      `getPlaceholder()`, `setPlaceholder(Node)`

  - ### selectionModel

    public final ObjectProperty<TableView.TableViewSelectionModel<S>> selectionModelProperty
    The SelectionModel provides the API through which it is possible to select single or multiple items within a TableView, as well as inspect which items have been selected by the user. Note that it has a generic type that must match the type of the TableView itself.
    See Also:
      `getSelectionModel()`, `setSelectionModel(TableView.TableViewSelectionModel)`

  - ### focusModel

    public final ObjectProperty<TableView.TableViewFocusModel<S>> focusModelProperty
    Represents the currently-installed `TableView.TableViewFocusModel` for this TableView. Under almost all circumstances leaving this as the default focus model will suffice.
    See Also:
      `getFocusModel()`, `setFocusModel(TableView.TableViewFocusModel)`

  - ### editable

    public final BooleanProperty editableProperty
    Specifies whether this TableView is editable - only if the TableView, the TableColumn (if applicable) and the TableCells within it are both editable will a TableCell be able to go into their editing state.
    See Also:
      `isEditable()`, `setEditable(boolean)`

  - ### fixedCellSize

    public final DoubleProperty fixedCellSizeProperty
    Specifies whether this control has cells that are a fixed height (of the specified value). If this value is less than or equal to zero, then all cells are individually sized and positioned. This is a slow operation. Therefore, when performance matters and developers are not dependent on variable cell sizes it is a good idea to set the fixed cell size value. Generally cells are around 24px, so setting a fixed cell size of 24 is likely to result in very little difference in visuals, but a improvement to performance.

    To set this property via CSS, use the -fx-fixed-cell-size property. This should not be confused with the -fx-cell-size property. The difference between these two CSS properties is that -fx-cell-size will size all cells to the specified size, but it will not enforce that this is the only size (thus allowing for variable cell sizes, and preventing the performance gains from being possible). Therefore, when performance matters use -fx-fixed-cell-size, instead of -fx-cell-size. If both properties are specified in CSS, -fx-fixed-cell-size takes precedence.

    Since:
      JavaFX 8.0
    See Also:
      `getFixedCellSize()`, `setFixedCellSize(double)`

  - ### editingCell

    public final ReadOnlyObjectProperty<TablePosition<S,​?>> editingCellProperty
    Represents the current cell being edited, or null if there is no cell being edited.
    See Also:
      `getEditingCell()`

  - ### comparator

    public final ReadOnlyObjectProperty<Comparator<S>> comparatorProperty
    The comparator property is a read-only property that is representative of the current state of the `sort order` list. The sort order list contains the columns that have been added to it either programmatically or via a user clicking on the headers themselves.
    Since:
      JavaFX 8.0
    See Also:
      `getComparator()`

  - ### sortPolicy

    public final ObjectProperty<Callback<TableView<S>,​Boolean>> sortPolicyProperty
    The sort policy specifies how sorting in this TableView should be performed. For example, a basic sort policy may just call `FXCollections.sort(tableView.getItems())`, whereas a more advanced sort policy may call to a database to perform the necessary sorting on the server-side.

    TableView ships with a `default sort policy` that does precisely as mentioned above: it simply attempts to sort the items list in-place.

    It is recommended that rather than override the `sort` method that a different sort policy be provided instead.

    Since:
      JavaFX 8.0
    See Also:
      `getSortPolicy()`, `setSortPolicy(Callback)`

  - ### onSort

      `getOnSort()`, `setOnSort(EventHandler)`

  - ### onScrollTo

    public ObjectProperty<EventHandler<ScrollToEvent<Integer>>> onScrollToProperty
    Called when there's a request to scroll an index into view using `scrollTo(int)` or `scrollTo(Object)`
    Since:
      JavaFX 8.0
    See Also:
      `getOnScrollTo()`, `setOnScrollTo(EventHandler)`

  - ### onScrollToColumn

    public ObjectProperty<EventHandler<ScrollToEvent<TableColumn<S,​?>>>> onScrollToColumnProperty
    Called when there's a request to scroll a column into view using `scrollToColumn(TableColumn)` or `scrollToColumnIndex(int)`
    Since:
      JavaFX 8.0
    See Also:
      `getOnScrollToColumn()`, `setOnScrollToColumn(EventHandler)`

- ## Field Details

  - ### UNCONSTRAINED_RESIZE_POLICY

    public static final Callback<TableView.ResizeFeatures,​Boolean> UNCONSTRAINED_RESIZE_POLICY

    Very simple resize policy that just resizes the specified column by the provided delta and shifts all other columns (to the right of the given column) further to the right (when the delta is positive) or to the left (when the delta is negative).

    It also handles the case where we have nested columns by sharing the new space, or subtracting the removed space, evenly between all immediate children columns. Of course, the immediate children may themselves be nested, and they would then use this policy on their children.

  - ### CONSTRAINED_RESIZE_POLICY

    public static final Callback<TableView.ResizeFeatures,​Boolean> CONSTRAINED_RESIZE_POLICY

    Simple policy that ensures the width of all visible leaf columns in this table sum up to equal the width of the table itself.

    When the user resizes a column width with this policy, the table automatically adjusts the width of the right hand side columns. When the user increases a column width, the table decreases the width of the rightmost column until it reaches its minimum width. Then it decreases the width of the second rightmost column until it reaches minimum width and so on. When all right hand side columns reach minimum size, the user cannot increase the size of resized column any more.

  - ### DEFAULT_SORT_POLICY

    public static final Callback<TableView,​Boolean> DEFAULT_SORT_POLICY
    The default `sort policy` that this TableView will use if no other policy is specified. The sort policy is a simple `Callback` that accepts a TableView as the sole argument and expects a Boolean response representing whether the sort succeeded or not. A Boolean response of true represents success, and a response of false (or null) will be considered to represent failure.
    Since:
      JavaFX 8.0

- ## Constructor Details

    Returns:
      the columns

  - ### getSortOrder

    public final ObservableList<TableColumn<S,​?>> getSortOrder()
    The sortOrder list defines the order in which `TableColumn` instances are sorted. An empty sortOrder list means that no sorting is being applied on the TableView. If the sortOrder list has one TableColumn within it, the TableView will be sorted using the `sortType` and `comparator` properties of this TableColumn (assuming `TableColumn.sortable` is true). If the sortOrder list contains multiple TableColumn instances, then the TableView is firstly sorted based on the properties of the first TableColumn. If two elements are considered equal, then the second TableColumn in the list is used to determine ordering. This repeats until the results from all TableColumn comparators are considered, if necessary.
    Returns:

  - ### sort

    public void sort()
    The sort method forces the TableView to re-run its sorting algorithm. More often than not it is not necessary to call this method directly, as it is automatically called when the `sort order`, `sort policy`, or the state of the TableColumn `sort type` properties change. In other words, this method should only be called directly when something external changes and a sort is required.
    Since:
      JavaFX 8.0

  - ### refresh

    public void refresh()
    Calling `refresh()` forces the TableView control to recreate and repopulate the cells necessary to populate the visual bounds of the control. In other words, this forces the TableView to update what it is showing to the user. This is useful in cases where the underlying data source has changed in a way that is not observed by the TableView itself.
    Since:
      JavaFX 8u60

  - ### queryAccessibleAttribute

    public Object queryAccessibleAttribute​(AccessibleAttribute attribute, Object... parameters)
    This method is called by the assistive technology to request the value for an attribute.

    This method is commonly overridden by subclasses to implement attributes that are required for a specific role.
    If a particular attribute is not handled, the superclass implementation must be called.

    Overrides:
      `queryAccessibleAttribute` in class `Control`
    Parameters:
      `attribute` - the requested attribute
      `parameters` - optional list of parameters
    Returns:
      the value for the requested attribute
