How to add padding

Question

I'm working on this code:
// Dialog opened when "About" button is pressed
    public void aboutDialogPanel()
        final Stage aboutDialog = new Stage();
        aboutDialog.initModality(Modality.WINDOW_MODAL);
        GridPane grid = new GridPane();
        grid.setAlignment(Pos.CENTER);
        grid.setHgap(0);
        grid.setVgap(3);
        grid.setPadding(new Insets(50, 50, 50, 50));
        // Product name
        Text productName = new Text("Product Name");
        productName.setFont(Font.font("Verdana", 12));
        grid.add(productName, 0, 0);
        // Product version
        Text productVersion = new Text("Version");
        productVersion.setFont(Font.font("Verdana", 12));
        grid.add(productVersion, 0, 2);
        // Close Button
        Button closeButton = new Button("Close");
        closeButton.setOnAction(new EventHandler<ActionEvent>()
            @Override
            public void handle(ActionEvent arg0)
                // Close the dialog when "Close" button is pressed
                aboutDialog.close();
        grid.add(closeButton, 0, 3);
        // Configure dialog size and background color
        Scene aboutDialogScene = new Scene(grid, 600, 500, Color.WHITE);
        aboutDialog.setScene(aboutDialogScene);
        aboutDialog.show();
I'm getting this result:

I want to center the text and display it equally distributed on the stage. Now the rows are very close to each other. How I can set equally distributed padding around the text?

Hi,
I was just trying to do the same thing. And I thought this would be simple...
Ok so minViewportInset doesn't work. my v scroll bar is about 20 px width and If I set this property to 50px the viewport gets smaller by 50 px from all sides when there is no scroller visible. And when it is visible it's located on the same spot where it would be if you had minViewportInset="1";
So this is like a permanent not depending on the scroller visibility condition.
What I need is simply as the guy who posted this post. When there is no scroller - full size viewport, when there is I want 10px padding for my text.
Shongrunder could you tell if there is some developement on this matter, I see this topic is from long time ago. If no then what should I do:
1) scrollerLayout or 2) individual VScrollBar. I need the easiest solution
Also if the guy who posted this question found a good work around this, please share it
Thanks!
