Fully agree, and Swing and JavaFX stopped development before the concept of "responsive UIs" became popular. So they have nothing for that.
I agree that layout via css used to be painful and hard to understand sometimes, but Flow and especially Grid Layout has completely solved this for me. --Toni -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Neil C Smith <[email protected]> Gesendet: Samstag, 17.

As someone working heavily with both Swing and HTML/CSS I find the idea that Swing's layouts are better quite amusing, or I would if I didn't have to fight with them so often! ;-) Mig is about the only one I use from code, Matisse is good but I find its output counterintuitive sometimes.
