The Sun Docs team has added some new topics to the Java-FX How-to page. These documents are complementary to the JavaFX tutorials that demonstrate the basics of the JavaFX Script programming language and GUI concepts in JavaFX technology.

The JavaFX how-to's are organized into categories that match the stages of JavaFX application development. These categories can help narrow the scope when you are browsing for a topic.

Some updates in the How-to's came directly from readers' questions and comments. The community's insight is invaluable and the Sun Sun Docs team encourages feedback. If a particular topic can't be found, please make a note in the Comments section at the JavaFX site so that direction can be given or a topic created to address the need.

Most topics contain the following information:

• A description of the solution to the question
• A simple code example in the JavaFX Script programming language, which you can copy and paste into your application and modify to suit your purposes
• Links that point to other tutorials and examples related to the topic
• Links to the API documentation that is related to the topic

In some instances, example code required to answer the question might be too long, but readers can follow the links provided within the how-to topic to see other documents that contain relevant code.

Readers should also know that some of the more general topics do contain subtopics within it, so visitors are encouraged to explore.
