Add image from java using fxml file created in scene builder

Question

If I want to add image node to fxml (created in scene builder) file from java, how can I achieve this ?

private ImageView close;
private ImageView close;
Image i = new Image(“file:C:\\Users\\Tarun\\Desktop\\Close-icon.png”);
close = new ImageView();
close.setImage(i);
close.setFitHeight(20);
close.setFitWidth(20);
close.setX(570);
close.setY(10);
Parent root = FXMLLoader.load(getClass().getResource(“table.fxml”));
Scene scene = new Scene(root);
stage.setScene(scene);
stage.show();

I know that there is some method root.getchidren.add(close) but here I am not able to implement this method.

@gontrad When i try to write root.getChildren.add(close) then it gives me error msg that "get children has protected access in Parent". — Tarun. P

You need to cast Parent to an appropriate class. E.g

AnchorPane root = (AnchorPane)FXMLLoader.load(getClass().getResource(“table.fxml”));
root.getChidren.add(close);

This can't be the solution without a modification of the fxml file since the rootis the same instance.

You just need to choose same layout class as one in fxml file

Also in most cases Pane will work as it's a parent for everything except Group.
