Text rendering artifacts when window size is changed

[hrzafer]

I just run ManualHighlighting.java from your repo with the following style:

.red {
    -fx-font-size: 12pt;
    -fx-fill: rgb(180, 32, 33);
    -fx-font-family: "Courier New";

}

When I resize the window, this is what happens:

I can reproduce this using JDK 8u40-b02 or older, but not 8u40-b20 or newer. So it seems like a JavaFX problem that has been fixed. What JDK/JRE version are you using?

[hrzafer]

JDK 8u31. Isn't it the latest stable release? How can I obtain 8u40-b20 or newer?

[TomasMikula]

Yes, that is the latest stable release. There are, however, early access builds of 8u40 available: https://jdk8.java.net/download.html

I also tested with 8u40-b23 and it seems the problem is solved for 8u40-b20 or newer. Thanks.
