The attribute width is not valid for HBox. I think the attribute you are looking for is prefWidth as in.

<HBox prefHeight="200" />

If you use JavaFX Scene Builder to create your fxml then it will allow you to do it all graphically and put in all the correct attributes for you.

Hope this helps.

Any attribute you use must correspond to a property with a corresponding public set...(...) method. There is no writable property called width (i.e. there is no public setWidth(...) method) defined in HBox. See the Javadocs for the properties and methods that are defined.
