How to add ScrollPane to main stage

Question

I'm interested how I can add ScrollPane to the main stage. I want when I reduce the size of the main page to use ScrollPane to move over the main stage. Is there any example?

If your content of the ScrollPane is larger than the allowed size of the ScrollPane, the ScrollPane should automatically attach scrollbars. Here's an example:

public class JFXScroll extends Application {

    @Override
    public void start(Stage stage) throws Exception {

        BorderPane main = new BorderPane();

        ScrollPane scroll = new ScrollPane();
        VBox box = new VBox();

        // Demo purposes; Wouldn't normally do this - just let the box automatically fit the content
        box.setPrefSize(1000, 500);
        box.setEffect(new ColorInput(0,0,1000,500,Color.LIME));

        scroll.setContent(box);

        main.setLeft(new Label("Left Content"));
        main.setCenter(scroll);

        Scene scene = new Scene(main, 300, 250);
        stage.setScene(scene);
        stage.show();


    }
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        launch(args);
    }
}
