RefactoringJavaFX

Planning Tasks for JavaFX

< [Concepts]

Using JavaFX will make the Rendering module obsolete. Create a new module which contains all the JavaFX specifics. This module should also contain all the reusable UI components for the game, thus further separating UI controls code from the actual logic. The application will startup with the StartupScene which allows:

• New game
• Load game
• Options
• Credits
• History

The New, Load and Option action will take you to a new scene which will replace the old scene.

Create a component which can have layered images in it. The component should also be resizable (ResizeableCanvas). Consider also the fact, that the image may be positioned based on the size of the window. Include:

• custom fonts
• hover
• Text loader from property

• Pagination control to split up flow test on several pages
