I have a TextField and a Label with mnemonicParsing true. I want to set the labelFor property of the label with the id of the TextField. How do I do that in FXML?
<GridPane hgap="5.0" snapToPixel="false" vgap="10.0" xmlns="http://javafx.com/javafx/8" xmlns:fx="http://javafx.com/fxml/1">
<children>
<Label maxWidth="-Infinity" text="_A Label" GridPane.halignment="RIGHT" GridPane.hgrow="NEVER" GridPane.vgrow="NEVER" mnemonicParsing="true" />
<TextField id="myTextField" GridPane.columnIndex="1" GridPane.hgrow="NEVER" />
</children>
</GridPane>
Thanks

You can change the text of a label using its setText() method. This can be done while the application is running. Here is an example of setting the text of a JavaFX Label: label.
Label Font To set a font text size, use the setFont method from the Label class. The following code sets the size of the label1 text to 30 points and the font name to Arial. label. setFont(new Font("Arial", 30));
A Text is a geometric shape (like a Rectangle or a Circle), while Label is a UI control (like a Button or a CheckBox). In Swing, geometric shapes were restricted to the painting mechanism, while in JavaFX they can be used in more generic ways. And you can use a Text clipping, giving the node shape by the text.
You can use the dollar notation:
<GridPane hgap="5.0" snapToPixel="false" vgap="10.0" xmlns="http://javafx.com/javafx/8" xmlns:fx="http://javafx.com/fxml/1">
<children>
<Label labelFor="$myTextField" maxWidth="-Infinity" text="_A Label" GridPane.halignment="RIGHT" GridPane.hgrow="NEVER" GridPane.vgrow="NEVER" mnemonicParsing="true" />
<TextField id="myTextField" GridPane.columnIndex="1" GridPane.hgrow="NEVER" />
</children>
</GridPane>
