Explanation of Solution

Spacing:

  • In JavaFX, spacing is done to manage the distance between the nodes.
  • It is given as a value that indicates the number of pixels to appear horizontally between the controls in a container.

Example: Consider, spacing value is given for a “VBox” container.

VBox myVbox = new VBox(10, messageA, messageB);

Here, the first argument “10” indicates the number of pixels that is given for spacing.

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”.

Example: Consider padding is done for “VBox” pane with 20 pixels...
