JavaFX always choose monospace font - possible bug?

2015-04-24 Thread Adam Granger
I'm using a redhat 6 system with jdk 1.8u40 where the only font available is "Liberation" in all its variants, bold, italic, mono, serif, sans-serif etc. /usr/share/fonts/liberation /usr/share/fonts/liberation/LiberationSerif-Regular.ttf /usr/share/fonts/liberation/LiberationMono-BoldItalic.ttf /u

Yes, but then read the rest of the thread. You really must not rely on the theoretical possibility of an XX flag that magically kicks all your problems down the road a year or two. The best time to get all this nailed correctly is now. That flag is not likely to be as extensive and durable a

I agree and we are hesitant. However, if that buys you three or more years of time to either see if Oracle is making good decisions regarding things we now build using private APIs as a last resort or if all (for us) showstopping JFX bugs are fixed by then, this can be a valid option in the real wo

Hi, I never proposed to rely on this feature forever but to relax the concerns raised that JDK9 is the end for useing JavaFX in new not yet explored ways and people stop using it today because it is already sure today that you won't get the API you require in your app. I've already outlined in ou

JDK 1.8.0 33/40, diacritics and file problems

2015-04-24 Thread Fabrizio Giudici
Ok, I've run into many problems in the past with diacritics, as there were some JDK problems, but I supposed they were all fixed today. But perhaps there's something I'm not understanding. I've several files with diacritics in their name, let's say e.g. "La Cathédrale Engloutie.m4a". A cata
