Program Description Answer

When a selector name begins with a period in a JavaFX CSS style definition, the selector corresponds to “specific types of JavaFX nodes”.

Hence, the correct answer is option “B”.

Explanation of Solution

Type Selector Names:

  • The selector names, which are starting with a period is type selector.
    • Type selector is corresponding to a particular type of JavaFX nodes.
  • These names are identical to the JavaFX class names to which they correspond.
  • For example
    • If the class name is “Button” then the corresponding type selector is “.button”.
    • If the class name is “CheckBox”, then the corresponding type selector is “.check-box”.

Explanation for incorrect options:

a. specific variable names in the application:

It is not a valid one and it is not corresponds to specific names in the JavaFX CSS style definition.

Hence, the option “A” is wrong.

c. values that the user enters:

It is not a valid one and it is not corresponds to user entered values in JavaFX CSS style definition.

Hence, the option “C” is wrong.

d. named constants in the application:

It is not a valid one and it is not corresponds to named constant in JavaFX CSS style definition.

Hence, the option “D” is wrong.

Lab 12 - Advanced JavaFX Controls Part 1: Make a new copy of the JavaFX program SimpleCalculator that you developed in Lab 11, then add to it a menu with four menu items as shown below. This menu should allow a user to perform addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Simple Calculator I Simple Calculator Operation Operation First Number: Add Ctrl+A Subtract Ctrl+S Second Number: Multiply Ctrl+M Result: Divide Ctrl+D Add Subtract Multiply Divide Add Subtract Multiply Divide Discuss: 1. Where to place the menu bar? Is the menu bar should be placed at the top of the border pane? 2. Is it better to use methods for implementing addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division tasks and call those methods whenever they are needed instead of rewriting the same code once for the buttons and again for the menu items? 3. How can you assign keyboard accelerator to a menu item (such as: Ctrl+A to Add)?
Create an application with a form that resembles Figure 3-48. The PictureBox controls display the images of four fruits (a banana, an apple, an orange, and a pear) and each fruit’s calories. You can find these images in the Chap3 folder of the Student Sample Programs.   When the application starts, the total calories should be zero. Each time the user clicks one of the PictureBoxes, the calories for the fruit should be added to the total calories, and the total calories should be displayed. When the user clicks the Reset button, the total calories should be reset to zero.  Hello, I recently sent this question, but didn't provide images as needed. I apologize for that, I'm not sure how to upload the other three fruits (an apple, an orange, and a pear) since I can only upload two. If there is a way, please let me know. Just for clarification on this question, everytime the PictureBox (fruit) is clicked on, it will display the fruits calories on the label under "Total Calories", and…
