Different text effects in JavaFX

Thursday Jan 29, 2009

Some of the way, we can make fancy text. There are lot of good way but these are few of them. If you really want to make it fancy then please do some R&D with these API's used in this code. Here is a small code:

  

package addingfontinstyle;

import javafx.scene.effect.DropShadow;
import javafx.scene.effect.GaussianBlur;
import javafx.scene.effect.light.DistantLight;
import javafx.scene.effect.light.SpotLight;
import javafx.scene.effect.Lighting;
import javafx.scene.paint.Color;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.text.Font;
import javafx.scene.text.FontWeight;
import javafx.scene.text.Text;
import javafx.scene.text.TextOrigin;
import javafx.stage.Stage;

Stage {
    title: "Text In Style"
    width: 450
    height: 500
    scene: Scene {
        content: [
            Text {
                effect: DropShadow {
                    offsetX: -10
                    offsetY: -10
                }
                font: Font {
                    name: "Arial"
                    letterSpacing: 0.20
                    size: 50
                }
                fill: Color.YELLOWGREEN
                stroke: Color.GREEN,
                strokeWidth: 3
                x: 15,
                y: 80
                content: "Hello World"
            },
 
            Text {
                effect: Lighting {
                    light: DistantLight {
                        azimuth: -135
                        elevation: 30
                    }
                    surfaceScale: 5
                }
                x: 10
                y: 200
                content: "Hello World"
                fill: Color.RED
                font: Font {
                    name: "Arial Bold"
                    letterSpacing: 0.20
                    size: 50
                }
            },
            Text {
                effect: Lighting {
                    light: SpotLight {
                        x: 0
                        y: 100
                        z: 50
                        pointsAtX: 400
                        pointsAtY: 0
                        pointsAtZ: 0
                        specularExponent: 2
                    }
                    surfaceScale: 5
                }
                textOrigin: TextOrigin.TOP
                x: 10
                y: 300
                content: "Hello World"
                fill: Color.RED
                font: Font {
                    name: "Arial Bold"
                    letterSpacing: 0.20
                    size: 50
                }
            },
            Text {
                effect: GaussianBlur {
                }
                x: 10
                y: 400
                content: "Hello World"
                fill: Color.GREEN
                font: Font {
                    name: "Arial Bold"
                    letterSpacing: 0.20
                    size: 50
                }
            }
        ]
    }
}
