I was wondering if this new SDK would be able to run side by side with the previous SDK? We cannot migrate to the new SDK for need of the missing features but would be interested in hosting both in the same application to begin taking advantage of 3D capabilities.

Hi Michael, give JFXPanel a shot and let me know how it goes. I am interested in the same thing. Here is a link.

Michael,

Great discussion point.

You should be able to reference both APIs from the same application, making sure that you keep your JavaFX and SWING stuff on separate threads, as Thomas alluded to. We would be very interested in how you progress on this. 

Thanks!

Hi Guys,

We intend to spend some time putting a proof of concept together of side by side use in the near future. From the responses so far I assume this is a pure Java FX control now and needs to be hosted in Swing using a JFXPanel?

I have used this JFXPanel in the past but we experienced poor performance.
