ScalaFX v.1.0 Milestone 3 Released

[Jarek Sacha]

The third milestone of ScalaFX v.1.0 is now available on our Downloads page and in the Maven repository.

ScalaFX helps you simplify creation of JavaFX-based user interfaces in Scala. ScalaFX uses a simple, hierarchical pattern for creating new objects and building up the scene graph. ScalaFX supports full interoperability with Java and can run anywhere the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) and JavaFX2 are supported. Current version supports most of the JavaFX 2.2.7 functionality. For more information see ScalaFX home page.

Changes since Milestone 2

• Improvements to handling of collections within ScalaFX code  For instance, utility functions added to help filling collections and deal with `null` passed from the user.
• Improvements to scaladocs.
• Missing methods added to `Scene`: `fill`, ` addMnemonic`, ` removeMnemonic`, ` getMnemonics`, ` accelerators`, ` snapshot`, ` startDragAndDrop`, `startFullDrag`.
• Additional `Font` factory methods.
• Fixed Issue 39: scalafx.scene.control.Pagination PageFactory is not working
• Fixed Issue 45: Missing wrappers for ReadOnly[Boolean,Double,Float,Integer,Long,String]Wrappers
• Fixed Issue 57: `Control` should extend `Parent` not `Node`.
