Merry Christmas!

// December 23rd, 2008 // demo

Here is a quick preview of the new Default Controls and the new Nifty 1.0 Style.

Note the awesome effects on the checkmark when I toggle the Checkbox ;) and watch the Keyboard only usage in the second part of the video :)

    Hi mate! This framework is really great! I have one question though, how can i disable or change the nifty level logging? I tried with a log4j.properties in the classpath but that didn’t work. (I have commons-logging and log4j).

    By the way, any news on the new version? I’m looking forward to use the checkboxes and the new skin! ;)

    Thanks and Happy new year!

    Hi Mac,

    Nifty is using the Java 1.4 Logging. Commons-Logging or Log4j have been voted out by some people because of webstart and applet size / loading time considerations (I started using commons-logging but it simply was not worth the additional size).

    This should disable everything but warnings with Java 1.4 Logging for all Nifty classes:
    Logger.getLogger(“de.lessvoid”).setLevel(“de.lessvoid”,Level.WARN);

    The upcoming 1.0 Release of Nifty (current svn) has cleaned up logging too :)

    I’m not sure on the release date yet. I’ve planned next weekend but I want to make sure that everything is nice and clean so maybe early next year would probably be more realistic :)

    You could create your own skin with the current nifty too and the cool checkmark effect would be possible to add with current Nifty features too ^^

    Best Regards,
    void
