B4J Question AquaFX?

ShaneG30 · Feb 11, 2015

Is it possible to use AquaFx with B4J? Would put the "finishing touches" on my app and make it look MAS (Mac App Store) friendly.

Download the jar file and copy it to the additional libraries folder: http://aquafx-project.com/index.html
1. Add this attribute:
Code:
#AdditionalJar: aquafx-0.1
2. Add this code:
Code:
#If JAVA
   import com.aquafx_project.AquaFx;
   public static void Apply() {
     AquaFx.style();
   }
#End If
3. Call this Java method with:
Code:
Dim jo As JavaObject = Me
   jo.RunMethod("Apply", Null)

B4J just became epic powerful! Thank you!
AquaFx will help any of my Mac users "feel at home".

These IDEs are truly amazing.

@Erel

Update: I'm receiving a "Package doesn't exist" error. I have the jar file in my libs folder.

Tried again, and also tried renaming the jar file itself.

Hi,

pls try after you have added the additional jar to the project attributes. Like:
Code:
#Region  Project Attributes
    #MainFormWidth: 600
    #MainFormHeight: 400
    #AdditionalJar: aquafx-0.1
#End Region

My mistake, forgot to post the AdditionalJar step.

That's alright

I'm a newbie to your IDEs and am still getting used to their mannerisms.

OMG, This is awesome! Got jar themes working! Though the pre-Yosemite look is a bit dated, at least it's a Mac "L&F" instead of the default style.

Did this with the OS detection and AquaFx is only used if the OS contains "mac". Going to use "Flatter" for Windows and Linux.

Can we get pictures of the different styles?
