Many people's first reaction to Java native program development still stays in the dark gray single style of Java GUI interface, development style still stays in AWT or Swing. This article focuses on developing a Demo based on SpringBoot and JavaFX to show you how far Java Native applications can go. Of course, JavaFX 2.0 did not catch on for a reason, and now there are many native options, front-end frameworks will make a native...

New Modena theme to replace the original Caspian theme. However, in the start() method of the Application, we can continue to use the Caspian theme by calling setUserAgentStylesheet(STYLESHEET_CASPIAN).
Refer to http://fxexperience.com/2013/03/modena-theme-update/
- CSS styling is one of the main features of JavaFX
- CSS implemented specifically in a private API (com.sun.javafx.css package)
- CSS public apis are required by several tools (e.g. Scene Builder)
- Developers will be able to define custom CSS styles
Visualization tools to accelerate the development of JavaFX GUI:
Like NetBeans, JavaFX Scene Builder can configure the interface by dragging and dropping. After the interface is completed, it is saved as a FXML file. The file describes the object configuration in XML and is processed by JavaFX program, so it can reduce the difficulty of directly writing the interface in JavaFX.
JavaFX Scene Builder 2.0 added JavaFX Theme Preview function, the menu "Preview" → "JavaFX Theme" to select different themes, including
- Modena (FX8).
- Modena Touch (FX8).
- Modena High Contrast – Black on White (FX8).
- Modena High Contrast – White on Black (FX8).
- Modena High Contrast – Yellow on Black (FX8).
- Caspian (FX2).
- Caspian Embedded (FX2).
- Caspian Embedded QVGA (FX2).
JavaFX8 provides a 3D image processing API, Including Shape3D (Box, Cylinder, MeshView, Sphere subclasses),SubScene, Material, PickResult, LightBase (AmbientLight and PointLight subclasses),SceneAntialiasing, etc. The Camera class has also been updated. You can find more information in JavaDoc.
