[FIXED] How can I do some action when one specific Tab is selected using Javafx

Issue

I'm trying to do something when one tab of my tabPane is clicked, I've tried use Action Event but it doesn't work:

public void tabPressClicked (ActionEvent event){
        comboBoxPresYear.setVisible(true);
        lblPresYear.setVisible(true);
    }

[EDITED]

The right way to do that:

tabPresentation.setOnSelectionChanged(new EventHandler<Event>() {
            @Override
            public void handle(Event t) {
                if (tabPresentation.isSelected()) {
                    comboBoxPresYear.setVisible(true);
                    lblPresYear.setVisible(true);
                }
            }
        });

Solution

I'm not sure what you're trying to do/ what ActionEvent you are expecting but try either something like:

tabPane.getSelectionModel().selectedIndexProperty().addListener(new ChangeListener<Number>() {
    @Override
    public void changed(ObservableValue<? extends Number> ov, Number oldValue, Number newValue) {
        // do something...
    }
}); 

if you want to do something when the selection changes (any tab)

or try:

http://docs.oracle.com/javafx/2/api/javafx/scene/control/Tab.html#setOnSelectionChanged%28javafx.event.EventHandler%29

for a specific tab (I haven't tried this yet, though).
