Houston TechFest Sessions
Java FX Scene Graphs
Java 1
September 13, 2008 04:00 PM - 05:00 PM Room: TBD
Steve Reynolds, INT

This talk covers the Scene Graph Java library that is the rendering engine underneath JavaFX. The talk
will begin with a gentle introduction to scene graphs and why they are useful. The talk continues with
the key Scene Graph classes and how they fit together. The talk then shows how they work in the context
of the EggTimer demo that is part of the Scene Graph project. The talk will conclude with a discussion
of the special effects that are part of Scene Graph and how they work.

This presentation will contain demos, and some source code. This talk is intended for people who are
interested in understanding how JavaFX gets its cool graphics.  The Scene Graph library is also useful
directly from Java code and so this talk should interest Java GUI programmers too.
