Absolutely - there needs to be a viable community that is not just Oracle.
So, is there one? If not, how do we build one?
OK, so let me rephrase my earlier email:
I am willing to work with *anyone* (within Oracle or not) on the features that
the community craves, such as those I listed (and any
There needs to be a viable community that is not just Oracle to support
you here ..
I think everyone has come to be dependent on Oracle to "be there".
But if there is a specific community need that Oracle doesn't see as
essential, then the community should help out.

Well, that’s all fine but you didn’t address the issue of working with someone
within Oracle to get these innovations done.
Sure, I could just toil away by myself but clearly it would be better all
around if there was someone with much more extensive knowledge of JavaFX and
its internals who wa
I think looking at it as an Oracle-owned and controlled project maybe
the first mistake here.
Yes it was closed source and then Oracle controlled, but not any more,
OCA requirements aside.
It is not even a "java specification". It can be evolved at an API level
without a JSR.
The JEP process is

Whilst I’m not going to be quite as “passionate” as some on this issue
(although I do understand the frustration), I would like to point out again
that this is indeed a huge gap and it is critical that it is filled ASAP.

Sorry about all the typos previously.
Question- why not use the code in awt ? I am not totally up on what's
going on with the platforms' native rendering engines ( meaning, I have
no idea whatsoever) or how they have changed, but golly it sure does
still work pretty well.
At least it seems
Glad you got the build working. You can post back on this thread when
you are ready.

No Oracle plans !!!
My one sentence rant:
Interactive infographics are a cool way to represent complex
information and actgually represent a genuinely new way to communicate
information which in some cases is also the best way or all possible
ways, but there are at least two other ways that
This is a gap it would be nice to fill.
Since it is not a small effort to do right there'd be a design side as
well as implementation so it can't be just 'slid in'.
And I don't think just moving internal APIs to public is the way to
approach it.
There are no current plans to allocate Oracle res

I had the same issue. I haven't gotten any response. They must already
be aware of it but they're not tipping their hand about what if
anything they plan to do about it or what release improvements might
appear in.
For an easy 1000 yd. overview of what's missing,
