Building samples as standalone fails

Sorry for the late reply, the problem seems to have been that you were trying to build javafx samples from main against chart-fx 11.3.0 (the last released version at that time). Since there was an improvement to the zoomer plugin since then, you get the error.

This should now be resolved with the 11.3.1 release, but in general you should either

• build against the snapshot release published to maven-central (see the readme for the correct maven coordinates), or
• build chartfx-samples from a checkout of the tag matching the release version you are using

I hope this resolves your questions and explains what was going on.
