Class Reflection

  • public class Reflection
extends Effect
    An effect that renders a reflected version of the input below the actual input content.

    Note that the reflection of a Node with a Reflection effect installed will not respond to mouse events or the containment methods on the Node.

    Example: 

    
 Reflection reflection = new Reflection();
 reflection.setFraction(0.7);

 Text text = new Text();
 text.setX(10.0);
 text.setY(50.0);
 text.setCache(true);
 text.setText("Reflections on JavaFX...");
 text.setFill(Color.web("0x3b596d"));
 text.setFont(Font.font(null, FontWeight.BOLD, 40));
 text.setEffect(reflection);

    The code above produces the following:

    The visual effect of Reflection on text
