1. VBox with Three Vertical Buttons

Write a JavaFX application that uses a VBox to arrange three buttons vertically.

Sample Solution:

JavaFx Code:

//Main.java

import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.control.Button;
import javafx.scene.layout.VBox;
import javafx.stage.Stage;

public class Main extends Application {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        launch(args);
    }

    @Override
    public void start(Stage primaryStage) {
        primaryStage.setTitle("Vertical Buttons");

        // Create three buttons
        Button button1 = new Button("Button 1");
        Button button2 = new Button("Button 2");
        Button button3 = new Button("Button 3");

        // Create a VBox layout to arrange the buttons vertically
        VBox root = new VBox(10); // 10 is the spacing between buttons
        root.getChildren().addAll(button1, button2, button3);

        // Create the scene and set it in the stage
        Scene scene = new Scene(root, 200, 200); // Width and height of the window
        primaryStage.setScene(scene);

        // Show the window
        primaryStage.show();
    }
}

In the above code, a 'VBox' is used to arrange the three buttons ('button1', 'button2', and 'button3') vertically with spacing between them. You can run this application to see the vertical arrangement of the buttons in the window.
