B4J Question Missing Components when running on MAC?

[Alberto Iglesias]

Somebody knows if when running an app created by B4J on a MAC need install something else?

Because the same .jar running on Windows, You can see every components (button, listview, images, etc) and when running on a Mac this components not showing.

Look the screenshots with the same .jar running on both OS (windows and mac)

My sample is attach in this post.....

I reinstall the mac osx on VMWARE, starting with EL CAPITAIN, install the JDK 8

now is working very well, like a real mac.

My next step is update for High Sierra to test.

I've set up VMware 12 player running on Windows 10 with MacOS as guest.
JDK 1.8.0_172 installed on both Sierra and High Sierra VMs.

Your .jar works ok on Sierra, but empty form on High Sierra.

High Sierra might be the problem somehow.

Yes. Works very well until version SIERRA, more than this, don't work anymore!

I tried with:

EL CAPITAN: OK
SIERRA: OK
HIGH SIERRA: NOT OK


tested with JDK 1.7, 1.8 and 1.10

I have updated my iMac to Mohave (from Sierra) and have the same problem.
Did you resolve your problem on High Sierra?

I wonder if this is related to the Metal API and JavaFX not being compatible with it?

Edit: Saw in another thread this is a known bug and was resolved in JDK 9. Have you tried Java 9?

Not yet. I think your write. For now I have installed a bootable Sierra Partion on the Mac so I can go back and forth depending what I need to compile/package. I will have a go at JDK9 under Mohave when I get some more free time.

Thanks.
