In the Spinning Wheel Got to Go 'Round post, I showed you some basic animation in the context of a wheel that can be used to select a prize winner. Now I'd like to show you a modification that provides for zooming into a portion of the wheel, so that the audience can see the names more clearly as the wheel is spinning. Here's a screenshot of the wheel with some of the top rock songs, including the artists that performed them:
Notice that there is a green square on the lower left side of the wheel. Clicking on that square at any time (for example, while the wheel is spinning) causes the wheel to zoom in on a portion of the wheel as shown below. Clicking on the square again causes the wheel to return to its original size.
Using the Scale Transform to Zoom into a Portion of a Graphic Node
The listing below shows the updated version of WinnerWheelJFX.fx which includes this zoom feature. The WinnerWheelExample.fx file hasn't changed, and you can find that file in the post referenced above.
/*
* WinnerWheelJFX.fx - A wheel with names on it that spins
* and lands on a random name. This will
* be used initially by Java Users Groups
* to give a away door prizes. It will be
* improved upon over time, serving as an
* example of compiled JavaFX 2D graphics
* and animation.
*
* Note: The compiled JavaFX Script Key-Frame
* implementation isn't complete, so the
* animation syntax is more verbose than it
* will be in the near future.
*
* Initially developed 2008 by James L. Weaver (jim.weaver at lat-inc.com)

Of particular note is the portion of code, shown below, that paint the green rectangle on the screen, reacts to mouse events, and causes the wheel to be scaled and translated (moved). Note that zoomed is a Boolean attribute defined earlier in the listing.
transform: bind [
Scale.scale(if (zoomed) 1.8 else 1, if (zoomed) 1.8 else 1),
Translate.translate(0, if (zoomed) -0.9 * cY else 0)
]

onMouseExited:

onMouseClicked:

JavaFX Script Boot Camp Announcement
As a heads-up, I will be offering a JavaFX Script 2.5 day "boot camp" on Wednesday, April 9 through Friday, April 11, 2008 (ending at noon) in Indianapolis, Indiana. This course is designed to get you quickly up to speed in JavaFX Script application development. A primary reference for this course is my JavaFX Script book, but the course has its own syllabus which includes material covered in the book as well as up to the minute developments in compiled JavaFX Script. Registration will open soon, and for this pilot class I am accepting 12 students. The cost of this pilot class will be 900 USD per student. Additional students from the same organization will be 600 USD. You'll need to bring your laptop computer with the latest versions of the JavaFX Script downloads (which I'll specify in more detail as the class date approaches). The prerequisite for the class will be the completion of a JavaFX Script programming assignment that I'll post soon to this weblog. I'm looking forward to teaching this class and hope that you can attend!
