Explanation of Solution

“VBox” Layout container:

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

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.

myVbox.setPadding(new Insets(20));

Here, “myVbox” references “VBox” container object.

Algorithm:

Step 1: Create an empty “VBox” container and name its object as “vbox”...

Dice Simulator Create an application that simulates rolling a pair of dice. When the user clicks a button, the application should generate two random numbers, each in the range of 1 through 6, to represent the value of the dice. Use PictureBox controls to display the dice. (In the Student Sample Programs, in the Chap05 folder, you will find six images named Die1.bmp, Die2.bmp, Die3.bmp, Die4.bmp, Die5.bmp, and Die6.bmp that you can use in the PictureBoxes.)
Shape1. Shape =5 will make the shape control appears as a rectangle O square O oval O rounded square O
Good Evening In attachment is picture of C# net form. second picture has form in edit mode basically it needs following:  Add and alter the following controls:Button        Name: btnEditButton        Name: btnDeleteButton        Name: btnCanceltxtEmpName    MaxLength: 30    Remarks: Should only allow letters A-Z, a-z, space and back space characters.txtEmpID    MaxLength: 8    Remarks: Should only allow 0-9 and back space characters. next - When the program starts the two textboxes should be set to read only so the user can not alter the contents unless they are in add or edit mode. Also the cancel and save buttons should be disabled. next In add mode the listbox, add button, edit button, and delete button should be disabled. The two textboxes, cancel button and save button should be enabled. next In edit mode the listbox, add button, edit button, employee ID textbox, and delete button should be disabled. The employee name textbox, cancel button and save button should be enabled.  next…
