There's no built-in support for MDI in JavaFX. The UI development community has debated MDI for years, and seems to have settled on general agreement that it's a bad design. See the note at the top of the Microsoft dev page on MDI, Apple's Java Dev guide for Mac, and the Wikipedia entry on MDI.

JFXtras offers a (semi-official) third party solution with some samples if you need to implement MDI.
