Changing canvas size sometimes does not resize the preview window about chunky HOT 6 OPEN

TODO: Check if there is a way to force Swing to resize the preview window?

from chunky.

I have found that with some scenes, I simply cannot change the canvas size - I push the button and nothing happens. When this happens, it also doesn't save the new numbers. If I set the canvas size I want as default, then the scenes that don't work simply won't open at all. Chunky provides no feedback on what's happening, seems to just silently fail. I would prefer to be able to set the size regardless of whether Chunky can actually display it or not, as I am doing my rendering remotely (headless). A command-line override would be lovely.

Has this been fixed by our patch for the blank preview window?

I set size to 1920x1080 -> ok.
I press "double" -> 3840x2160 -> preview turned to white, but render ok.
I press "double" again -> resolution did not change -> still white, didn't try to render.

java 7 upd 55 32bit

This is caused by JavaFX canvas size being too large: #492

This will also be (pretty much) fixed, as soon as #786 is complete.

(Could we possibly mark this as duplicate and close this to use #492 issue thread instead?)

Woops, actually, this issue is unique from #492 as 492 discusses larger canvases that exceed Integer#MAX_VALUE / 3 in pixel count, not canvases which are smaller and still cause JavaFx to fail silently, like #314 did.
