File load completion check in java

I am working on a image browser project where I need to handle lots of image files. I have created a FlowPane and added those image files using a loop. But when it loads, it stuck for few seconds. I want to get rid of this.

I found that this problem relate with loading those files. My solution is to load all files in a synchronized way where files will load one at a time. How can I do that?

Is there any way to check if file loading and displaying complete?

If you are loading the images in the main thread, then the UI freeze should be expected. You should load the images in a background process (i.e. one or more separate thread(s)). Before reading this, you can try loading the images (javafx.scene.image.Image) as:

Image x = new Image("file:///path/to/image.jpg", true);

...for background loading. See also the relevant property progress and method cancel() of Image.
