Release candidate for Flamingo 4.2
I am pleased today to announce the availability of release candidate for version 4.2 of Flamingo component suite (code-named Hiolair). It is a stabilization release that adds a few minor features and fixes all known bugs.
Here is the list of minor features added in release 4.2:
- Support for placing small command buttons in ribbon galleries
- Option to specify the callback for populating the default content of ribbon application menu
- Command buttons support no icon / no text mode
- Emitting full bounding box coordinates in SVG transcoder
- Support for changing the expand listener of ribbon bands
- Better tracing of inconsistent ribbon resize policies
If you want to test the ribbon in your applications, you would need the following (the last two only for applications running under Substance look-and-feel):
- The latest 4.2RC drop of Flamingo (code-named Hiolair)
- The latest 6.0dev drop of Substance (code-named Sonoma)
- The latest 6.0dev drop of Substance Flamingo plugin
You are more than welcome to take Flamingo 4.2RC for a ride and report any problems in the project mailing lists, forums or issue tracker. The final release is scheduled for November 2. Only bugs will be fixed until that date.
To see Flamingo ribbon in action, run the following WebStart demo:
The demo above works for the core look-and-feels. To see the ribbon under Substance, run the following WebStart demo:
Here are a few screenshots showing the new features in 4.2RC:

Matt,
Thanks for reporting this. Can you post the first one to the project forums / mailing list, along with the full information on your OS? The second one just needs trident.jar added to the JNLP (new dependency in Substance 6.0dev) – i should’ve checked this before posting.
Thanks
Kirill

In 4.2 the “Inconsistent preferred widths” exception can reproduced.
xception in thread “AWT-EventQueue-0″ java.lang.IllegalStateException: Inconsistent preferred widths
Ribbon band ‘Wizard has the following resize policies
org.jvnet.flamingo.ribbon.resize.CoreRibbonResizePolicies$Mirror with preferred width 54

org.jvnet.flamingo.ribbon.resize.CoreRibbonResizePolicies$Mid2Low with pref width 54 is followed by resize policy org.jvnet.flamingo.ribbon.resize.IconRibbonBandResizePolicy with larger pref width
- Create a RibbonBand with 1 CommandButton
- If RibbonBand name is longer than commandButton name > exception
THIS DONT WORK
ribbonBandWizard = new JRibbonBand(“Wizard”, new EmptyResizableIcon(16));
List resizePolicies = new ArrayList();
resizePolicies.add(new CoreRibbonResizePolicies.Mirror(ribbonBandWizard.getControlPanel()));
resizePolicies.add(new CoreRibbonResizePolicies.Mid2Low(ribbonBandWizard.getControlPanel()));

buttonStartWizard.setActionKeyTip(“SW”);
buttonStartWizard.addActionListener(getRibbonActionListener());
