This allows you to draw any kind of path you can think of, and then animate other shapes along that path. You can use any of JFXBuilders drawing tools to construct a path that you want some shape to follow in your animation. For the example pictured in the screenshot, I went to google maps and found an interesting looking freeway clover-leaf. After dragging the image into JFXBuilder, I drew some paths with the pencil.http://reportmill.com/blog/?p=19 Remi Forax: Mixing property language support and bean bindings- September 24, 2007 Recently, Shannon posts version 1.0 of beanbindings, even if this version is not ready for production use, it is stable enough to create a small demo mixing property language support and beanbindings.

But other people do.http://weblogs.java.net/blog/chet/archive/2007/09/shutup_about_th.html Fabrizio Giudici: Good advice: buy that book- September 19, 2007 I received my copy of "Filthy Rich Clients" by Chet Haase and Romain Guy a few days ago (now in good company with "Rich Client Programming"), but until this morning I didn't find the time to read it. So, just after...http://weblogs.java.net/blog/fabriziogiudici/archive/2007/09/good_advice_buy.html Sun's posted the first official feature complete beta of NetBeans 6.0, its pure Java IDE for various platforms.- September 19, 2007 Sun's posted the first official feature complete beta of NetBeans 6.0, its pure Java IDE for various platforms. I spent a little time playing with it, and it's definitely getting there. It's quite clean, overall, and serious competition for Eclipse, at least at the base level. I can't quite find my way around it as easily as in Eclipse--I never did figure out how to make one project reference another--but that's just a function of my years of experience with Eclipse. For someone starting from...http://www.cafeaulait.org/#September_18_2007_66396 Romain Guy: Another Free Chapter- September 17, 2007 InfoQ just published a review of Filthy Rich Clients.

It gives me a great pleasure to announce the first alpha drop of the Strider project (code-named Alento).http://www.pushing-pixels.org/?p=137 |
