How can I hide the scroll bar in TextArea?

Answer 1

Hi. To remove the horizontal scrollbar you can do this:
textArea.setWrapText(true);
To remove the vertical scrollbar you can do this:
ScrollBar scrollBarv = (ScrollBar)ta.lookup(".scroll-bar:vertical");
scrollBarv.setDisable(true);  and set the opacity to 0 in the css file:
//css file
.text-area .scroll-bar:vertical:disabled {
    -fx-opacity: 0;
}Here is an example:
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.event.ActionEvent;
import javafx.event.EventHandler;
import javafx.scene.Node;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.control.Button;
import javafx.scene.control.ContextMenu;
import javafx.scene.control.MenuItem;
import javafx.scene.control.ScrollBar;
import javafx.scene.control.TextArea;
import javafx.scene.input.ContextMenuEvent;
import javafx.scene.layout.StackPane;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
public class TextAreaSample extends Application {
    @Override
    public void start(Stage primaryStage) {
    final TextArea textArea = new TextArea();
        textArea.setWrapText(true);
        StackPane root = new StackPane();
        root.getChildren().add(textArea);
        Scene scene = new Scene(root, 300, 250);
        primaryStage.setScene(scene);
        primaryStage.show();
        scene.getStylesheets().add(getClass().getResource("style.css").toExternalForm());
        ScrollBar scrollBarv = (ScrollBar)textArea.lookup(".scroll-bar:vertical");
        scrollBarv.setDisable(true);
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        launch(args);
}
