Update. I did an attempt to add this functionally to Label itself, by editing LabeledSkinBase, and with a few minor modifications (mainly swapping width/height variables in a few places), I managed to get this to work. Creating my own control wasn't really possible as the LabeledSkinBase is

Yes, you are absolutely right John and again I’m sorry that I did not initially see the relevance of your question for this list. I do now and I like your ideas :-) > On 15 Dec 2018, at 22:06, John Hendrikx wrote: > > > I asked here because, although not a bug, it may be a good feature to sup

I asked here because, although not a bug, it may be a good feature to support -- and I was looking for confirmation that this really isn't currently possible. It's not a bug because a rotation transform is expected to not change the layout bounds. Making use of Group fixes the layout bound

It's a bit grey. If this goes towards a bug in the layout, it could be considered OpenJFX development. It could also go towards a patch, because instead of using Canvas I would suggest (John) to look at the HBox and see if you can figure out why it is not doing what you want. And if that is too

My feedback would to ask this kind of question on a more appropriate list or forum. I believe this list is exclusively to discuss issues related to the development of OpenJFX itself. Graciously, John-Val > On 15 Dec 2018, at 12:50, John Hendrikx wrote: > > > (Sent this twice, first message

(Sent this twice, first message got sent prematurely) Hi list, I get the impression that rotation of Labels needs to be something that is directly supported by Label instead of handling this with a Rotate transform (setRotate). I want to achieve something quite trivial if no rotation was i
