A quiet week this time, with just two links of note that I could find:

• GestureFX, a lightweight gesture-enabled pane for JavaFX, has had a new release.
• I came across the open-source Paintera, which “is a general visualization tool for 3D volumetric data and proof-reading in segmentation/reconstruction with a primary focus on neuron reconstruction from electron micrographs in connectomics.” It is built using JavaFX 2D and 3D interfaces. There is a cool video linked on Twitter (I wish I could find a better one)

• Thomas Nield has given a talk on Kotlin and mathematical modelling, and how JavaFX is used to visualise this. He also has a blog post specifically about the challenge of animating the ‘traveling salesman’ problem with JavaFX.
• I missed one of Dirk Lemmermann’s JavaFX tips – this one on ScrollPane with a DropShadow.
• jaxenter has published a three-part interview with a few people from the JavaFX community (myself included), in relation to the just-released JavaFX 11. You can read part one, part two, and part three.
• Kirill Grouchnikov has resurfaced after a long absence to publish a library on GitHub called radiance, which is a “set of libraries for building modern, elegant, and fast Swing applications”.

• A JavaFX FlexBox layout has surfaced on GitHub. Very cool!
• Kirk Pepperdine has got a short article online about using JavaFX with JDK 11.
• Carl Dea has a post about animated effects through JavaFX callouts.
• Herb Bowie has converted his Notenik note taking application from Swing to JavaFX in Notenik 2.
• Forbes has an article online about the augmented reality scavenger hunt game coming to Oracle Code One, written in Java / JavaFX using Gluon Mobile, and running on iOS and Android.
