JavaFX Design Tool
Although you probably didn't see me, I was at JavaOne, where they unveiled the JavaFX design tool. Although the demos were fairly minimal, the elegance, beauty, and genius of Anthony's design showed through to me.

Indeed a very nice UI.
I was looking on your blog for any info on the pdf viewer you showed in 2007, but I can't seem to find a download, the pdf component used is probably pdfrenderer (which I found and already used)
Any news on releasing that demo?

Looks awesome

Hey Chris, looks like the in/out of the parent group overrides that of its children, if I'm correctly reading the what the 'house' group is doing. I do hope you will have some form of time-snapping to allow precise layout of the segments too.

Hi!
The JavaFX Authoring Tool looks nice.
But I have a question about JavaFX and you are the main author of it, if I remember right.
Do you know more about the JavaFX-license?
It seems, that it is not allowed to spread the JavaFX-runtime.
If you download the SDK, you have only _one_ license for _one_ computer. It is not allowed to integrate it in its own programs and publish it, for example.
So, creating JavaFX-standalone programs is senceless.
And if you create internet programs with webstart, then you must integrate the link to Suns JavaFX runtime, that the user downloads it direct from Suns side.
But JavaFX changed in 1.2 its binary-format. That means, if you have a online-program, and there comes a new JavaFX version out, your program will no longer run.
Have also a look at
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JavaFX#License
I have also already written in the forum at
http://forums.java.net/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=62353&tstart=0
there are good answeres. But not related to the license.
It is possible, that the runtime of JavaFX is part of the compiler-project:

it seems, that all files are there (I am not sure). But the problem is, that - unlike OpenJDK - there all the files are under the GPL _without_ GNU Classpath exception !!
Do you know more about the license?
If it will in any time be usable.

1. When will the tool be available?
2. Will the animation stuttering and tearing be fixed before this is released so that JavaFX is actually useful for animation?
3. Will the media performance issues also be fixed before the tool is released so that JavaFX is useful for media playback?
I want to believe. Fix the performance issues.
