Hi Todd, > Yeah, I've written a real-world Pivot app that had used web queries to > communicate with the server, where the servlets were also using Pivot. > I was able to generate PDFs and JPGs in headless mode without any > problems. Great ! My other usage is to generate Images as screenshot of single components (Buttons, Lists, or maybe other Containers, like Panels, Forms, etc), so for example i could use some of these images in web pages or other material (documentation, etc) and give them the same look as Pivot applications.
Ah, from this point of view, I've seen that JavaFX for example has some new JavaDoc tags (i think a custom DocLet, or something similar) that when run, render screenshots of the feature described, very useful.
