<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Iosevka Fixed SS16 Light"">Dear JavaFX developers:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Iosevka Fixed SS16 Light""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Iosevka Fixed SS16 Light"">We would like to propose a new feature - rich text control, RichTextArea, intended to bridge the functional gap with Swing and its StyledEditorKit/JEditorPane.
The main design goal is to provide a control that is complete enough to be useful out-of-the box, as well as open to extension by the application developers.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Iosevka Fixed SS16 Light""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Iosevka Fixed SS16 Light"">This is a complex feature with a large API surface that would be nearly impossible to get right the first time, even after an extensive review.
We are, therefore, introducing this in an incubating module, <b>javafx.incubator.richtext</b>. This will allow us to evolve the API in future releases without the strict compatibility constraints that other JavaFX modules have.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Iosevka Fixed SS16 Light""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Iosevka Fixed SS16 Light"">Please take a look at the proposal [0], a list of discussion points [1], and the API Specification (javadoc) [2]. While the proposed API is
ready for review, it isn't complete nor set in stone. We are looking for feedback, and will update the proposal based on the suggestions we receive from the community. We encourage you to comment either in the mailing list, or by leaving comments inline in
a draft pull request [3]. For context, the links to the original RFE [4] and a list of missing APIs related to rich text [5] are provided below.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
