Agreed. I'm just putting in ideas of things we'll want to look into, not things we'll actually do (or even need to do).

I'll have to dig through your code more. Most of the resources online for custom JavaFX controls come from before the big changes in Java 8u60ish

Cool 🙂 I'm looking for bugs in SmartResize, probably will for another couple of days. Unfortunately I have to go to Spain on Wednesday, and I'll be gone until Sunday, but I thought we could try to do a release the day after. Do you think the view transitions will be ready to play with by then?

Or whenever it was they made the changes 🙂

Yeah, a lot happened with custom controls. My biggest problem when I started was outdated information actually.

Same here

I think it was u40

Ah, that sounds right now that you say it

The view transition stuff is pretty much ready to play with now. I've cleaned it up fairly well. I just haven't been able to dig deeply into the code @hansolo_ gave me for the perspective transforms, but it should be fairly straightforward. He's pretty good at this stuff 🙂

Cool! Yeah, he's amazing 🙂

At some point I'd like to get either his or @jonathan's input on the weird root padding issues I get

Other than that, you can play with it in the branch I have out there.

It's nice to do the API cleanup before people start using it though.

Good, OK. I'll do that early next week 🙂

I created a test app that shows how the transitions work as root, in an HBox, and in a BorderPane

Sounds good

Perfect! If you're pretty much done with it, feel free to merge. I will test it in a couple of applications next week 🙂

I'll look at merging it tomorrow when I have more time.

Great! Tomorrow I will commit the

column(title: String, type: KClass<T>, op)

builder and give some examples. It works quite well. Too bad about the type/class parameter, but it's much nicer than having to repeat both the table type and the column type as type parameters at least.

It looks way cleaner.

I have two more bugs to squash in the resize thing, then I hope you guys have time to play just a little with it 🙂 I will add a couple of samples so you can just hit play though.

(I have some uncommitted changes at work that I will incorporate tomorrow)

Off to bed. Tomorrow, guys 🙂

Night 🙂

@jonathan: Quick question: How much has explicit Z-ordering in JavaFX been discussed, and what are the chances it will ever be added?

Jdk 9 adds more in this area

But you'll need to read the API as it is quite specific

Okay, thanks. I'll hunt that down

@ron: yes I'm one of co-founders of Gluon and also ControlsFX library
