Worth noting, this won't fully solve the problem that the reporter of this bug filed. The null check will prevent the NPE, but the scene will still not be visible. To allow removing and then re-adding the `JFXPanel`, we would need to not call `Window.hide` when the `JFXPanel` is removed. We should file a follow-on Enhancement to consider doing this, but that will need more discussion. The main point that would need to be solved is to figure out when to call `Window.hide` if not when the `JFXPanel` is removed. ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jfx/pull/1493#issuecomment-2197030820
