ControlsFX is a large open source library that extends JavaFX: http://fxexperience.com/controlsfx/features/
It requires Java 8.

jControlsFX is a wrapper for several controls and features from this library.

The following controls are supported:
BreadCrumbBar, CheckComboBox, ColorPicker, HyperlinkLabel, InfoOverlay, ListSelectionView, SegmentedButton, Separator and StatusBar.
You can see them in the screenshot (Mac version) and attached project.
You can download the compiled version of this example: www.b4x.com/b4j/files/ControlsFXExample.jar

It also includes a class with useful features named ControlsUtils.
ControlsUtils allows you to:
- Set the nodes background color or image.
- Add a decoration to a node (like the exclamation mark near the text field above).
- Show notifications.
- Set the size of nodes even if you do not know the node type.

Hi,

compiled the example using Java 1.8.0_66 and received error when calling

B4X: 
Sub AppStart (Form1 As Form, Args() As String)
    cutils.DisableCssWarnings
    warningDecoration = fx.LoadImage(File.DirAssets, "exclamation.png")

B4X: 
main._appstart (java line: 60)
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/sun/javafx/Logging

Seems a change in the API. Any hint how to resolve?

Removed - the UI comes up, but when using f.e. the RangeSlider Control or the NotificationButton, following error:

B4X: 
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/sun/javafx/Utils

Looked the ControlsFX site and downloaded based on info: For users of JavaFX 8u40 and greater, download ControlsFX 8.40.10.

BUT it did not resolve the problem.

BTW: When using the latest RemoteControl example, which also uses ControlsFX same errors.

Yes = copied controlsfx-8.40.10.jar and renamed to controlsfx-8.jar --- basically replacing the previous controlsfx-8.jar version 8.20.8.

Oops = Overlooked that controlsfx is part of the standard B4J libraries (... there are so many B4J libs - sometimes confused which are core and which are additional).
Moved over and working fine now - expect the disablecsswarning.

Thanks for your help - appreciated.

I just wanted to say that for users that used ControlFx since java 8u20, updating should be done this way:

  1. Install the latest B4J
  2. Install the latest java 8 JDK (8u66)
  3. Delete the old "controlsfx-8.jar", "jControlsFX.jar", jControlsFX.xml" from your additional libraries folder
  4. Download http://fxexperience.com/downloads/controlsfx-8.40.10.zip, rename "controlsfx-8.40.10.jar" to "controlsfx-8.jar" and copy it to your internal libraries folder (in program files), overwriting the one that came with B4J.

That works for me.
