class: TextInputDialog

[12:7] extends: FxObj

Wraps JavaFX TextInputDialog, a dialog that prompts the user to enter a string and returns the entered text. An optional default value pre-fills the input field when the dialog opens. Title, header text, and content text can be set to provide context. Call showAndWait() to block until the user confirms or cancels, then inspect the returned value for the entered text.
