Re: Ugly flashing when opening a css-styled stage
Thanks but it does not seem to improve the situation. btw, I am using 1.8.0_05-b13 on Mac OS 10.9.3 on a retina MBP.

Re: Ugly flashing when opening a css-styled stage
To rule out CSS is the reason you could directly set the background: pane.setBackground(new Background(new BackgroundFill(Color.rgb(54, 54, 54), CornerRadii.EMPTY, Insets.EMPTY))); Does that improve the situation?

Re: Ugly flashing when opening a css-styled stage
No, it does not. So it is not the CSS.

Hi Robert, Which of the two mailing lists is the more appropriate one to post these things (JFX problems which look like they might be platform-specific) to? FYI: the JDK Mac OS X Port Project has been completed long time ago, so currently the macosx-port-dev@ mailing list isn't appropriate for almost anything. Please report JavaFX bugs at: https://javafx-jira.kenai.com/ AWT/Swing/JDK bugs can be reported at: http://bugreport.java.com/bugreport/ (or http://bugs.sun.com/ ) If you wish to participate in the development of the technologies (e.g. you want to contribute a patch for JavaFX or JDK platform), then you're welcome to post your suggestions on the appropriate development mailing lists (openjfx-dev@, awt-dev@, swing-dev@, etc.) -- best regards, Anthony On 6/1/2014 12:18 PM, Robert Krüger wrote: Hi, I'm in the process of evaluating Java FX 8 for our currently Swing-based product (also Java 8) on OSX.

I thought it was more or less the successor of apple-java-dev, i.e. where one discusses issues/problems/questions specific to the Mac port of the JDK/JRE and Java development on the Mac in general. Please report JavaFX bugs at: https://javafx-jira.kenai.com/ Submitted as RT-37372 AWT/Swing/JDK bugs can be reported at: http://bugreport.java.com/bugreport/ (or http://bugs.sun.com/ ) If you wish to participate in the development of the technologies (e.g. you want to contribute a patch for JavaFX or JDK platform), then you're welcome to post your suggestions on the appropriate development mailing lists (openjfx-dev@, awt-dev@, swing-dev@, etc.) I've been subscribed to the two lists for a while now and my impression is, it is also a place where people running into problems with the platform's limitations exchange their experience which has been very valuable especially when dealing with a rather new platform but I guess I need to move to the OTN community for this. Thanks and best regards, Robert
Ugly flashing when opening a css-styled stage
Hi, I'm in the process of evaluating Java FX 8 for our currently Swing-based product (also Java 8) on OSX. My first attempt to style a stage's background resulted in an ugly flashing effect which I would classify as a show-stopper for delivering a commercial product. This looks like it is caused by the stage being drawn at least once before the style has been applied, and I am wondering what the mistake is since my code is more or less a straight-forward hello world: package jfxtest; import javafx.application.Application; import javafx.scene.Scene; import javafx.scene.control.Button; import javafx.scene.layout.StackPane; import javafx.stage.Stage; public class JXTest extends Application { @Override public void start(Stage primaryStage) throws Exception { final StackPane pane = new StackPane(); final Button closeButton = new Button(Close); closeButton.setOnAction(event - primaryStage.close()); pane.getChildren().add(closeButton); final Scene scene = new Scene(pane, 800, 600); scene.getStylesheets().add(dark.css); scene.getStylesheets(); primaryStage.setScene(scene); primaryStage.setTitle(getClass().getSimpleName()); primaryStage.show(); } public static void main(String[] args) { launch(args); } } with dark.css being: .root { -fx-background: rgb(54, 54, 54); } Is this a Mac-specific problem?
