How to make JavaFX Applications non-blurry on Retina Display
javafx, javafx-2, retina-display, scala
Solution
In the same article in the commentary Richard Blair stated that this was fixed in the latest JavaFX version (available in the EAP of Java 8, downloadable here)
Problem
A JavaFX application appears blurry on the MacBook Pro Retina screen. Is there a way to display the application sharp? In a blog post/comment was mentioned that this is the case currently: http://fxexperience.com/2012/11/retina-display-macbook-pro/ This is the example fxml: ``` <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <?import javafx.scene.layout.*?> <?import javafx.scene.control.*?> <VBox xmlns:fx="http://javafx.com/fxml"> <MenuBar> <Menu text="File"> <items> <MenuItem text="Exit"/> </items> </Menu> </MenuBar> </VBox> ``` Example code: ``` import javafx.application.Application import javafx.fxml.FXMLLoader import javafx.scene.Scene import javafx.scene.layout.VBox import javafx.scene.paint.Color import javafx.stage.Stage object CreateFX extends App { override def main(args: Array[String]) = { println("CreateFX starting up...") Application.launch(classOf[CreateFX], args: _*) } } class CreateFX extends Application { def start(stage: Stage): Unit = { println("start "+stage) stage.setTitle("CreateFX") val root: VBox = FXMLLoader.load(getClass().getResource("MainScreenVBox.fxml"))//new VBox val scene = new Scene(root, 800, 600) scene.setFill(Color.GREEN) stage.setScene(scene) stage.show() } } ``` Outcome: Java Version: `1.7.0_21`
