Thanks Lisa for pointing that out.
First I tried to build the openjfx 8u6 (you pasted a link in another
post) with the patch someone posted in the RT-34296 jira post.

The patch had to be manually applied because it was created from a
different changeset. Anyway, I was able to apply the patch and cross
build successfully. However, only one touch was working. Second touch
is not working (I could not figure out). The single touch is also
sending two events and my application has different behaviour for one
event and two events. So, I abandoned this idea and I;m building the
latest javafx.

I was able to build from 8u-dev/rt (tag: 8u20-b23). However my
application is recognizing the touch only on the main window. I have
multi-touch in the pop-up window where even single touch in not
working from some reason.

Whenever I touch to bring up the pop-up window I get the following
error message on console:

To summarize, I have built latest javafx but cannot test my touch.

Any suggestions?
