//adding actions to the drop down menu
private String[] menuItems = {"Inmate Booking", "Release Inmate", "View Inmate Status ",
"Update Inmate Status", "View Vistor Log","List Inmates","View All Inmates" }; //you can view the vistor log by name or date or prisoner
//you can view inmate by name and cellblock for list inmates
//create combobox for dropdown menu
private ComboBox<String> combo = new ComboBox<>();
//create gridpane to hold actions(?)
private GridPane[] menuActions = new GridPane [7];
//creating new flowpane
private FlowPane flowPane = new FlowPane();
@Override
public void start(Stage primaryStage) {
//set menu actionse
menuActions[0] = bookInmate(); //to book an inmate in the system

menuActions[4] = visitorLog(); //to view visitor log by name and
menuActions[5] = listInmates(); //to list inmates in prison by name or cellblock
menuActions[6] = viewAllInmates(); //to view all inmates
setDisplay(0); //set book an inmate as the deafult
BorderPane border = new BorderPane();
BorderPane pane = new BorderPane();
pane.setLeft(new Label("Select action from menu: "));

primaryStage.show();
}
