Run the following example code, which creates an empty table with two columns:


public class TableGraphicBug extends Application {
   public static void main(String[] args) {
       launch(args);
   }
    
   @Override
   public void start(Stage primaryStage) {
       primaryStage.setTitle("Table Graphic Bug Demo");
       TableView table = new TableView();
       TableColumn column2 = new TableColumn("Column 2");
       column2.setGraphic( new Circle(8) );
       //column2.setVisible( false );
       
       table.getColumns().setAll( new TableColumn("Column 1"), column2);
       

       StackPane root = new StackPane();
       root.getChildren().add(table);
       primaryStage.setScene(new Scene(root, 300, 50));
       primaryStage.show();
   }
}


Note that there is a graphic (a black circle) in the header of the second column.

Close the program, then uncomment this line:

       //column2.setVisible( false );

Run the program again. Notice that the graphic for column 2 is still visible, even though column 2 itself is not! Interestingly, this only seems to happen if the graphic is in the last (rightmost) column in the table.
