ThRuST Well-Known Member Licensed User Longtime User Nov 6, 2018 #1 Well since I came to the same conclusion elsewhere I post it here where it belongs. There's a need for a toggleswitch and I found a nice one in Native Java that you can find here Please wrap this in a library for B4J and we're all go to heaven peacefully UPDATE: There's now a ToggleSwitch library available for B4J go here to get it.

ThRuST Well-Known Member Licensed User Longtime User Nov 6, 2018 #4 To fill you all in on this, the jtoggleswitch library cannot be updated since Donmanfred don't have the sourcecode anymore. That's why we all need a new equal control, so if anyone can make a wrapper it's super.

ThRuST Well-Known Member Licensed User Longtime User Nov 7, 2018 #9 @ShaneG30 Wow that was sure quite a newsflash. Good or bad what do you think? So what do you suggest for everyone who made a library that works with Java v1.8.0 191 and it will probably work with JDK v9.0.4 but then what's the coming steps to follow. Nice posting this, so others can adapt to the new standard. So people can update their libraries to stay up to date someway. Cheers

Caution: Semi-Long Read I'm not entirely sure yet but I'm thinking that this may be a bad move because Java no longer has a modern UI framework built-in; meaning it won't get as much exposure as it was getting. Also, exposure is why Swing became the de facto GUI for a long time. (Exposure means that anyone who started using Java could create GUIs without downloading another framework.) I'm also concerned about the general state of Java itself in regards of the "security perception" (how general users see Java) and licensing; which is why I think Google is preparing to make Chrome OS replace Android. Nothing is official yet but I feel that's the reason why they've been pushing "Android apps on Chrome OS" so hard; so when the switch does happen it won't be another Windows Phone.
