the anchor by default - google-maps-api-3

By default, the anchor of an icon created with MarkerImage is located along the center point of the bottom of the icon.
How to indicate we want to use the default value ?
var icon= new g.MarkerImage('images/house.png',
new g.Size(32, 32),
new g.Point(0,0),
new g.Point(16, 32));
or
var icon= new g.MarkerImage('images/house.png',
new g.Size(32, 32),
new g.Point(0,0),
);

The anchor point is optional so you can choose to specify it in the constructor or not. Up to you. Either way should work.

Placing buttons on opposite sides of an adjustable window in JavaFX

I have two buttons that I'd like to use in my display screen: a reset button, and a settings button.
The problem is, I want them on opposite sides of the window (reset in the top right corner and settings in the top left) while being the same height. When I expand the window, however, the buttons stay in the same place, but I want them to move with the window walls.
I first tried using setAlignment of my reset button to Pos.*TOP_RIGHT* and the settings button to top left, but it comes out with the settings button being on top of the reset button.
resetButton = new Button("Reset Gameboard");this.setTop(resetButton);
resetBox = new HBox(resetButton);
resetBox.setAlignment(Pos.TOP_RIGHT);
backButton = new Button("Back to Settings");
this.setTop(backButton);
backBox = new HBox(backButton);
backBox.setAlignment(Pos.TOP_LEFT);
resetbackBox = new HBox(backButton, resetButton);
this.setTop(resetbackBox);`
I currently am using (below) which during the initial window appears to be working and correctly spaced, but as soon as you expand the window the reset button doesn't follow it, although the settings button does.
`resetButton = new Button("Reset Gameboard");
this.setTop(resetButton);
resetBox = new HBox(resetButton);
resetBox.setAlignment(Pos.TOP_RIGHT);
backButton = new Button("Back to Settings");
this.setTop(backButton);
backBox = new HBox(backButton);
backBox.setAlignment(Pos.TOP_LEFT);
resetbackBox = new HBox(backButton, resetButton);
resetbackBox.setSpacing(380);
this.setTop(resetbackBox);`
The problem start from this line:
resetbackBox.setSpacing(380);
You have setted a fixed spacing value. To fix that you can easily add a component to HBox called Region, this component allow to set a grow area between two buttons:
Button resetButton = new Button("Reset Gameboard");
Button backButton = new Button("Back to Settings");
Region region = new Region();
HBox.setHgrow(region, Priority.ALWAYS);
HBox topHBox = new HBox(backButton, region, resetButton);
this.setTop(resetbackBox);

SetPadding of one single elemet in a layout whith many childrens

There is a way to set a Padding of one single element in a VBox having other childrens?
this.layout_p = new VBox();
this.txta_p = new TextArea();
this.m_p = new Button("m");
this.o_p = new Button("o");
this.c_p = new Button("c");
this.oa_p = new Button("oa");
this.np_p = new Button("np'");
layout_p.getChildren().addAll(txta_p, m_p,
o_p, c_p, oa_p, np_p);
layout_p.setAlignment(Pos.CENTER_RIGHT);
I would like to have the button: np_p with a top padding of 50 from others buttons.
So having a separation between oa_p and np_p.
(Without using another VBox for that button and so, setPadding(...))
Setting a padding for a single node does not make sense. Padding is the room between the bounds of a node and it's content, see also the CSS Box Model.
You're actually trying to add a margin here, i.e. some space around the node. This can be done using VBox.setMargin.
VBox.setMargin(np_p, new Insets(50, 0, 0, 0));

Disable button depending on another node children amount in JavaFX

I need to disable button depending on some element children amount.
I have tried something like this, which is not right:
HBox userDataHBox = new HBox(new Label("1"), new Label("2"), new Label("3"));
Button btn = new Button();
btn.disableProperty().bind(
Bindings.notEqual(userDataHBox.getChildren().size(), 3)
);
userDataHBox.getChildren().size()
just yields the current size of the list. Nothing to observe there. You could use Bindings.size to get a IntegerBinding for the size that can be used:
btn.disableProperty().bind(
Bindings.size(userDataHBox.getChildren()).isNotEqualTo(3));
Here you go:
btn.disableProperty().bind(
Bindings.createBooleanBinding(()-> userDataHBox.getChildren().size() != 3, userDataHBox.getChildren())
);

Cropped Marker-Icons in Google-Map V3 (Sprite)

I show on a Google map (V3) markers. So that the icons be loaded faster, all the icons are stored in one sprite.
I notice that the icons are sometimes cropped (at the bottom or / and on the right edge is missing a 1 pixel wide border). Interestingly, you can zoom the map, and then the problem disappears. Is this a Google bug or am I doing something wrong. The problem occurs with Firefox, Chrome and IE.
Has anyone had a similar experience or a solution for the problem?
I made a reduced example of the problem. This example can also be accessed online:
http://www.gps-tracks.com/MarkerIconSpriteProblem.aspx
var markerIcon = new google.maps.MarkerImage(
"pictures/NetzCats/C03-MapSpritesS03.png",
new google.maps.Size(20, 16),
new google.maps.Point(140, 1600),
new google.maps.Point(10, 8)
//new google.maps.Size(20, 16)
);
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: myLatlng,
map: map,
title: 'Hello World!',
icon: markerIcon
});
You're using v3.10
http://jsfiddle.net/skdz6/
src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?v=3.exp&sensor=false"
With version 3.9 everything is OK http://jsfiddle.net/skdz6/1/
src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?v=3.9&sensor=false"
Someone who knows to get it working in v3.10?
since version 3.11 of the google maps API, the Icon object replaces MarkerImage. Icon supports the same parameters as MarkerImage.
The properties of the marker are a bit more clearly defined since version. For me this worked much better.
An example could look like this:
var image = {
url: place.icon,
size: new google.maps.Size(71, 71),
origin: new google.maps.Point(0, 0),
anchor: new google.maps.Point(17, 34),
scaledSize: new google.maps.Size(25, 25)
};
for further information check this site: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/markers
You are scaling your icon down to half its size, so it will inevitably lose either one border or the other, and you're exchanging Size and Point, as well as the order of the properties.
Try this instead:
var markerIcon = new google.maps.MarkerImage(
new google.maps.Point(5, 8), // anchor (POINT)
new google.maps.Point(140, 1600),//<====== origin (POINT)
new google.maps.Size(10, 8), //<======scaledSize (SIZE)
new google.maps.Size(20, 16), //<====== Size (SIZE)
"pictures/NetzCats/C03-MapSpritesS03.png" //URL
);

viewStack.addChild adding multiple child and only the last child is visible!

var viewStack:ViewStack = new ViewStack();
viewStack.percentWidth = 100;
viewStack.percentHeight = 100;
viewStack.addChild(canVas1);
viewStack.addChild(canVas2);
viewStack.addChild(canVas3);
lb = new LinkBar();
lb.dataProvider=viewStack;
Its only displaying canVas3 contents not canVas1 and canVas2
thanks
I think that's what it's supposed to do. It just puts components one on top of the other like a deck of cards, with the topmost (last added) being visible. Check this out.
