    Description

      When I remove a series from a LineChart and then add the same series back to the LineChart, I get an IllegalArgumentException because "duplicate children added." The error occurs even if I create a new XYChart.Series object and copy the data collection from the old series to the new series. The only way to avoid the error is to create a new XYChart.Series object and copy the data by creating new XYChart.Data instances.

      I first hit this problem using JRE 1.7.0_09 with JavaFX 2.2.3. I upgraded to the latest Java release (1.7.0_21 with JavaFX 2.2.21) and I see the same problem.

      The code below demonstrates the problem.

      package interactivechart1;

      import javafx.application.Application;
      import javafx.collections.ObservableList;
      import javafx.event.ActionEvent;
      import javafx.event.EventHandler;
      import javafx.scene.Node;
      import javafx.scene.Scene;
      import javafx.scene.chart.LineChart;
      import javafx.scene.chart.NumberAxis;
      import javafx.scene.chart.XYChart;
      import javafx.scene.chart.XYChart.Series;
      import javafx.scene.control.Button;
      import javafx.scene.layout.BorderPane;
      import javafx.stage.Stage;

              final NumberAxis xAxis = new NumberAxis();
              final NumberAxis yAxis = new NumberAxis();

              // Create the chart
              final LineChart<Number,Number> lineChart =
                      new LineChart<Number,Number>(xAxis,yAxis);
              lineChart.setTitle("Stock Monitoring, 2010");
