Explanation of Solution

Label:

  • “Label” is used to display the permanent text.
  • The “Label” class is in the package “javafx.scene.control”.

“HBox” Layout container:

  • “HBox” layout pane is used to display nodes in a horizontal row.
  • Syntax: HBox hbox_Object = new HBox ();
  • Setting alignment for HBox pane: Setting alignment for “HBox” pane is done by using the function “setAlignmnet()”.

Algorithm:

Step 1: Create an empty “HBox” container.

Step 2: Give the first argument as “10” that indicates the pixels and add all the label controls to the “HBox” container using “getChildren ()” and “addAll ()” methods.

Statements to add the given labels to the “HBox” container:

//Creation of empty HBox container

HBox myHbox = new HBox ();

//Adding pixels and labels to the HBox container

myHbox.getChildren().addAll(10, label1, label2, label3);

In the above statement, “myHbox” references “HBox” container object...

The is a container that can store a number of pictures at the same time.
You may use the following code segment: // Create lightsPane Pane lightsPane = new Pane();Circle redCircle = new Circle(100, 60, 20);Circle yellowCircle = new Circle(100, 110, 20);Circle greenCircle = new Circle(100, 160, 20);redCircle.setStroke(Color.BLACK);redCircle.setFill(Color.WHITE);yellowCircle.setStroke(Color.BLACK);yellowCircle.setFill(Color.WHITE);greenCircle.setStroke(Color.BLACK);greenCircle.setFill(Color.WHITE);Rectangle rectangle = new Rectangle(65, 25, 70, 170);rectangle.setStroke(Color.BLACK);rectangle.setFill(Color.WHITE);lightsPane.getChildren().addAll(rectangle, redCircle, yellowCircle, greenCircle);
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…
