Usually when you begin to write any sort of application that requires visual flare, animations are always on the cards.
Since WPF and JavaFX (and Apple’s Cocoa Touch) use a similar animation framework of a declarative nature, meaning, that the developer defines elements at time steps and then the framework works out the rest, it becomes [...]
In my last post on building some bar charts with the data gathered from the Hudson REST api, http://markmacumber.blogspot.com/2009/07/javafx-graphing-and-charting-with.html.
In this article I would like to extend the basic functionality of that graph and also highlight broken builds with RED bars.
The basic idea behind this small enhancement, is to structure the XML parsing in a more [...]
With the release of JavaFX 1.2, came a whole heap of API changes and new features.
Some of these new features include the charting API, this impressive API includes charts for Bar Graphs, Pie Charts, Bubble Charts, Lines Charts, and more. My own graphing API that I was building was solid, but did not cover as [...]
During a project that makes use of the Google Gwt Incubator project, I was using the FastTree widget pretty actively, and found that no matter how ‘fast’ the FastTree could render the results, there were just some times when the async rpc calls would take a short while to complete, and it would look like [...]
I came across a small issue when I was developing some home projects that I’ve got going (namely JFXtras) and I wanted to make a rectangle “grow backwards”.
i.e. the rectangle needs to grow upwards, not downwards when increasing the “height” of a rectangle.
Actually, the solution is quite simple, all you need to do is to [...]
How do you integrate GWT into an existing, AJAX based application???
This is the question that arose for me recently. I was working on a decent sized web application that used the popular Dojo JavaScript library. We simply wanted a far more stable environment to develop our application and chose GWT for this. The problem was [...]
I have joined a great open source project focused on creating great UI based widgets for JavaFX, its called “JFXtras” and its only in its early stages, but its looking like its going to get very popular and choc full of features very quick.
Just a quick list of features include:
Shapes and Silhouettes
Many layout controls such [...]
G’Day.
In this post, I will demonstrate with code samples, just how a developer would use the JFXGraph application.
Note:I have made a small update to the application that I posted about in the previous post, which will allow you to add your own bars to the graph, and, by double-clicking on a bar, will remove the [...]
Firstly, happy new year! This is my first post for 2009, and so far the new year has been going great!
So strait into the good stuff…
As you may have seen in a previous post of mine a bar graph type of application that demonstrated the integration of Java with JavaFX.
I decided to further develop the [...]
IntroductionI have been recently adding some JavaFX examples to my blog and I have wanted to also add a simple little link to the JNLP web start file and I really had no idea how to accomplish this on blogger.
The issues I had was the hosting of the files and the locations of the dependent [...]
