How can I modify the size of a label and set it on a desired position on the gridPane?

Question

I have created an 11x6 gridPane. 6 columns for each day of the week plus an extra one for times. The 11 rows represent each time period of the day, from 8am to 7 pm.

I have a problem when trying to resize labels and set them on the y axis. How can I do that?

You can resize labels by selecting the label and going to the right section of scene builder; click on properties and a list of editing options will drop down. And when you want to position your element in a certain manner, just click on the dropdown that says "Layout" you'll find it right below the properties dropdown, a list of options will drop down, use the marding and padding properties to position you element.
