Is it possible to set a spacing between nodes on a BorderPane? The Swing-equivalent would be hgap and vgap on BorderLayout. I didn't find anything in the documentation and the only viable workaround I can think of would be to selectively set margins on t...

I used the drag and drop interface to put the components where I want them to be, but when the window is resized they lose their relative position. I have attached a screen shot of my hierarchy and of two windows to show how the components lose their posi...
