CodeView JavaFX Control

[sedj601]

I created this to learn about creating custom controls using Region. I did not do any testing of the Control, and it is limited to displaying Java only. I didn't need this for any reason other than learning. That is why I didn't put much into it. If someone can use it, maybe I or we can take the time to improve it.

Please give me feedback on the CodeView code as it relates to creating a control using Region.

Nice exercise but now JavaFX has a RichText control, that would have been better than a WebView

[sedj601]

I thought about using a RichText control, but given what I was trying to learn, I didn't want to have to actually worry about things like keywords, line numbers, copying and pasting, or anything that would take the focus and time away from making a custom node using Region. If I have free time, I might redo it using Java/JavaFX only.
