public class TopBar extends HBox
{
public Button closeButton;
public Button minMaxButton;
public Label titleLabel;

public TopBar()
{
    titleLabel=new Label("Starling browser");
    closeButton=new Button("X");

    closeButton.setOnAction(new EventHandler<ActionEvent>() {

        @Override
        public void handle(ActionEvent actionEvent) {
            Platform.exit();
        }
    });
    closeButton.setStyle("-fx-opacity: 0.9;");

    minMaxButton=new Button("|  |");
    minMaxButton.setOnAction(new EventHandler<ActionEvent>() {

        @Override
        public void handle(ActionEvent actionEvent) {

            if(Main.stg.isFullScreen()==false)
            {
                 Main.stg.setFullScreen(true);
                minMaxButton.setText("||");
            }
            else if(Main.stg.isFullScreen()==true)
            {
                Main.stg.setFullScreen(false);
                minMaxButton.setText("|  |");
                Main.browser.setMaxHeight(Main.browser.getHeight()-20);
            }
        }
    });



    this.getChildren().addAll(closeButton,minMaxButton);
    this.getChildren().add(titleLabel);
    setMargin(titleLabel,new Insets(0,10,0,0));


}
}

What I would like to have is the buttons on the right and the label in the centre, however anything I`ve tried for that has not worked.(this is used as a toolbar in a borderPane) Ive tried literally everything I know of

I would suggest use a GridPane and add the elements to the row and column they need them to be in.

Use a StackPane as the base container for your toolbar. Add a Label and a HBox to the StackPane. The Label will automatically be aligned to the center. Add the buttons to the HBox; on the HBox set the alignment property to TOP_RIGHT. Set padding, spacing etc. as needed.

It's very helpful to use SceneBuilder for experimenting with layouts like this.
