Win8 mobile / tablet touchscreen support in javafx 8.0

Does anyone have any concrete information about touchscreen support in JavaFX 8? We are about to abandon java for HTML5, but I think I can make a case for JavaFX 8 if I can demonstrate that mobile touch gestures can be supported properly.

Judging by [URL https://javafx-jira.kenai.com/issues/?jql=text%20~%20%22touch%20screen%22]Jira and [URL http://docs.oracle.com/javafx/2/api/javafx/scene/input/SwipeEvent.html]the javadoc, yes they plan to provide touch screen support.
They have hinted at support for mobile devices in the future, but I have absolutely no idea when they plan to release that. There isn't going to be a lot of concrete information, since Oracle does not like to make premature announcements.

  • Which mobile phone`s support javaFX ?

    Hi
    i`m a mobile application developer , i`m Interested about javaFX i want to know which mobile phone models support javaFX ? i cant`t get any information about this in nokia , sony ericsson and ... web site`s and documents
    thanks

    To my knowledge, only Windows Mobile 6+ are currently supported... :-(
    Moreover, currently, JavaFX 1.3 for mobiles isn't release, yet.
    Look at the [Get page from JavaFX.com|http://javafx.com/downloads/all.jsp], there are release notes and installation instructions for mobiles.

  • Why Oracle dropped support of JavaFX on ARM devices?

    Why Oracle dropped the support of JavaFX on ARM devices? Release note: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/jdk-8u33-arm-relnotes-2406696.html
    Im studing JavaFX for a commercial project with Raspberry, but, this news changed everything.

    I am asking the same question, and I am very disappointed with the lack of communication from ORACLE.
    I have spent a lot of time to learn JavaFX from 1.1 version and I was very enthusiastic about the new start of JavaFX 2.0 and the "promises" that came with it.
    And today, after 2 years, the only thing we can do seriously with JavaFX is building a desktop application !
    - Building a Web application is theoretically possibly but is a mess in the real world (JRE version, plugin, certificate, ...)
    - Building an application for the mobile world is not completed yet. It remains a lot of work, and no roadmap can give us a vision of the future. Moreover, with politics and courts problems between Oracle and Google and Apple, future of JavaFX is opened to doubt.
    - And now if ARM support is dropped ...
    The only way that remains partially clear is that JavaFX will replace Swing. But that would be a big waste and an enormous disappointment if it was the case.
    If only Oracle could communicate on its strategies ...
    During this time, in a parallel world, Javascript, HTML, and CSS are growing and eating all the devices ...
    Best regards

  • HT1925 When I try to uninstall my itunes I go to my control panel to remove the Apple "Application, Mobile Device, software support" then i get a pop up saying that "the feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable" I cant fi

    When I try to uninstall my itunes I go to my control panel to remove the Apple "Application, Mobile Device, software support" then i get a pop up saying that "the feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable" I cant find it. Its preventing me from re installing the new itunes.

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Apple Software Update entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) downloaded from the Apple Website:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Does it go through properly this time?

  • Error 7 (windows error 126). Have tried to re-install itunes but failed, twice. some end message about "mobile device not supported".

    Error 7 (Windows error 126). I have tried to re-install itunes twice now, and each time  " mobile device not supported" appears and the  installation can not finish.

    See Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    Do you have any iOS devices? If the link above doesn't completely fix your library I could talk you through installing iTunes without Apple Moble Device Support for now which would at least enable you to open iTunes.

  • Lack of Mac & Linux Support Hurting Javafx 2.0 Early Adoption and traction.

    Lack of Mac & Linux Support Hurting Javafx 2.0 Early Adoption and traction.
    Oracle needs to come out with a Mac & Linux Beta built, or let developers know the real story behind Mac OS and Javafx 2.0.

    I too would like to at least be able to try the Mac/Linux ports, even knowing that they are behind the Windows version. But just knowing that Oracle is committed to them is enough to ease any nervous feeling that I'm choosing the wrong tech.
    I have no problems with the fact that Oracle is concentrating on Windows first. It makes sense. If you have to pick one platform to focus on while you are getting the kinks out, it makes sense for it to be the most popular platform. That's Windows. But there mustn't be too long of a wait for the others. (E.g. if they were in a public beta stage when the Windows version is at final release, that would help boost confidence in the platform.)
    So long as they don't make the same mistakes that were made with Swing, where there are too many assumptions that all platforms work the same - so things like Mac's screen menu bar had to be fit in after the fact by Apple using awkward hacks. (I notice that now even popular Linux distros (Ubuntu) are using the screen menu bar concept, though they have managed to fit that into the window manager in such a way that it didn't seem to cause much problems.)

  • Dreamweaver CC fluid grid, can I change the position of DIV's based on Mobile, Tablet, Desktop view?

    Hi all,
    Currently working on my first Dreamweaver CC fluid grid / responsive site. I want to optimise the pages layout for Mobile, Tablet and Desktop.
    I can see that I can hide individual div elements by adding "display: none;" to the mobile media query code in the CSS.
    I am wondering am I able to change the position of DIV's in relation to the order of each other some how using a similar way?
    Eg I have a webpage design for desktop like.
    Title
    Nav
    Description
    Buy Button
    Photo
    On mobile I'd like to be able to bring that Photo up towards the top of the layout eg.
    Title
    Nav
    Photo
    Description
    Buy Button
    I was hoping those up and down arrows you see in the Dreamweaver CC interface was going to some how make the changes to each view Mobile, Tablet, Desktop, but all that is doing is moving the position of code in the HTML amoung each of the main DIV sections.
    Or am I at the point where I will need to create a seperate page for mobile only to make a layout change like this?
    Any help would be great

    Hi Complexity,
    I have got some further info, and if I have lead you astray I am sorry.
    I don't think you can change the order of the divs in a responsive layout in DW CC.
    However, you can arrange the divs to sit under or beside each other differently in each of the layouts, for pc, tablet or phone.
    You can also switch divs off and on in each of the layouts, having them display in one size screen and not in another.
    So what you would need to do is to create a couple of nav divs, if you want a nav at the top of one type of screen and one at the bottom. You could duplicate the content in both of them and switch one on in one layout and one off in the other.
    I hope this helps!
    I am doing my first layout for a client using DW CC responsive layouts. I have done two test/hobby sites already.
    It is a bit of a mission learning it but I am getting there.
    I do find it interesting that most people recommend using other programs to do responsive rather than Dreamweaver's fluid grid layouts. I don't think many people are using it yet.
    Regards,
    Mary

  • Creating a div just for mobile/tablet displays

    I have a video set to autoplay on a site....it is an advertising video with no sound, so it's not intrusive.  I added controls for mobile and tablet users, however I am finding that it is not ideal.  So instead I would like to create a div that only mobile/tablet users see which contain all the same info in a small jpg instead.  I thought that by simply creating a div called "fluid col3mobile" and then changing my css so that mobile and tablets only had that div defined it would ignore the div called "fluid col3" and point to the graphic instead of the video.  However, I am finding that that is not working the way I imagined.  What is a better way to accomplish my goal?

    do you know if there is a way to make the account private on youtube?
    You can't have it both ways.  Either you post to YouTube and share your content with the world or you don't.  If you want exclusive control over your videos, you need to find better web hosting. There's no excuse for tolerating sub-standard hosting with so many companies to choose from.

  • Is there any plan to add RTSP  support in JavaFX?

    I really want use JavaFX in my new project, a web app in IP Camera.
    Current JavaFX  only support HTTP streaming, but the IP Camera is output RTSP stream.
    Is there any plan to add RTSP support?
    I think it is a very important function in surveillance application.
    Oracle should think about it!

    You can create a new feature request for RTSP support against javafx-jira.kenai.com
    RT-3458 camera support for JavaFX is (always) scheduled for the next JavaFX release.

  • Tablets That Support Drawing

    Hello All,
    I have been using my iPad with the Connect app for awhile and really like the benefit as it works much better for me than using the mouse when I want to circle/highlight, etc. for students.  I also use it on a regular basis with my math class.  I am looking to get a new tablet and was maybe going to go the Android or Windows direction, but when I tried it on my son's Kindle Fire with the Connect App I did not have the drawing function.  Is there a list of tablets where the drawing function works or something specific that I need to look for.  Thanks in advance for your help.

    Welcome to the forum.
    You can review a list here by manufacturer:

    Or for reviews, etc., Google "tablets that support flash"
    http://www.google.com/#q=tablets+that+support+flash
    Since Flash is not what it once was, make sure to do diligent research regarding if Adobe will continue to support the devices or are planning to drop support, performance per device, etc.

  • T440s - Windows 7 touchscreen support

    Hello all,
    I am having quite the time trying to get our T440s models to recognize the touchscreen.  It doesn't respond to touch and under system in control panel claims that there is not pen or touch device available on this computer.  In programs and features, Tablet PC options are enabled in Turn Windows Features on or off.
    Can anyone confirm if the touchscreen simply is not supported under Windows 7?  No device needs a driver under device manager.  Firmware is at the latest at the time of this post (v2.23).  At a loss with this one.  This is using our custom image and the Windows 7 image that came installed on the laptop.  I'm going to install Windows 8 just to test, but we can't use Windows 8 for the laptops intended purposes.
    Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I bought at 440s build with the 1080p IPS touchscreen and with 8.1Pro so I could get a "downgrade" license to 7.  Called Support the minute it arrived and they sent me a set of restore DVDs for the machine with 7 Pro on it the touchscreen works just fine.  Plus I don't have to endure that crap excuse of an interface called Windows 8, but that's another story...
    Perhaps it's something to do with your image of 7 that's missing a driver? If Device Manager doesn't even know to look for a device, it won't tell you it's a bad driver either.  

  • Email Fillable documents to Mobile, tablets, smart phones.

    I was able to create a fillable form to send to clients. I would like to make it as easy on the client as possible. Is there a way to email them a form that they can fill and return to me using an iPad, tablet, smartphone etc. Without them having to download an app on their device?
    Thanks for the help!

    You need to get the Adobe Reader Mobile application to fill out PDF forms on mobile devices.
    Third party applications that can display PDF most of the time doesn't really support forms features properly or completely. To fill out PDF forms you always need to use an Adobe product (Adobe Acrobat or Adobe Reader on the desktop or Adobe Reader Mobile on mobile)

  • JavaFX continues the support of JavaFX

    We are analyzing some possible solutions to provide a web solution across different devices and browsers.
    JavaFX is an option but I have found information that the project JavaFX is going to be discontinued by Oracle:
    http://www.coderanch.com/t/533315/Java-FX/java/future-JavaFX
    Is that true?
    Any information or confirmation would be great.
    Thanks

    >
    The term "discontinued" is not totally clear to me. It means, in this case, to migrate from 1.3.1 to 2.0, right?
    So we are saying that JavaFX is not going to, let's say, disappear. Totally the opposite.
    It is completely supported by Oracle. In word of the Roadmap web "Oracle is committed to making JavaFX the premier environment for rich client applications."
    >
    Sort of. JavaFX in general is not being discontinued, only the scripting language is being dropped. JavaFX 2.0 will be a normal Java API. So for instance, this:
    //Creating and using a stage in the scripting language.
    Stage {
        scene: Scene {
    }will no longer be possible in Script. But it will be possible to do in normal Java:
    //Using a stage in normal Java.
    public class Main extends Application {
         * From what I have seen in the more recent examples produced by Oracle employees in their blogs,
         * the main stage is given to you inside this method.
        public void start(Stage stage) {
            //Create a scene and add it the Java way.
            Scene scene = new Scene();
            stage.setScene(scene);
        public static void main(String[] args) {
            Launcher.start(Main.class, args);
    }Our interest is in producing a web application, with advanced components (tables, menus, trees,...) as alternative to other approaches like Ajax.
    Then the solution would consist in running JavaFX in an applet of the HTML page. Am I correct?
    >
    Sure.
    >
    Another concern is the licensing. As it will become part of java, no license is required.
    >
    I have no idea what the license will say. But technically speaking, there is a license for normal Java. I am quite certain there will be a license for JavaFX.
    If you are asking whether you can develop commercial applications with it free of charge, the answer should be yes. I think the license is mainly just to make sure you accept that you are using their software at your own risk and won't sue them if something goes wrong. Of course, I am not a lawyer, so use my advice at your own risk and make sure to read the license for yourself when it comes out!
    >
    And last but not least, we are interested in making the web accessible from different devices (PC, PDA, advanced mobiles...) and different browsers (IE, Mozilla, Safari,...). Is there a list of tested devices/browsers compatible with JavaFX?
    >
    I don't think so. I can tell you right now though that support for mobile has been dropped for the time being. Oracle will probably try to build support for it in the future, but they are still kind of busy trying to make JavaFX in general work.
