public abstract class Shape
extends Node
```
The Shape class provides definitions of common properties for objects that represent some form of geometric shape. These properties include:
- The Paint to be applied to the fillable interior of the shape (see setFill).
- The Paint to be applied to stroke the outline of the shape (see setStroke).
- The decorative properties of the stroke, including:
  - The width of the border stroke.
  - Whether the border is drawn as an exterior padding to the edges of the shape, as an interior edging that follows the inside of the border, or as a wide path that follows along the border straddling it equally both inside and outside (see StrokeType).
  - Decoration styles for the joins between path segments and the unclosed ends of paths.
  - Dashing attributes.
Interaction with coordinate systems
Most nodes tend to have only integer translations applied to them and quite often they are defined using integer coordinates as well. For this common case, fills of shapes with straight line edges tend to be crisp since they line up with the cracks between pixels that fall on integer device coordinates and thus tend to naturally cover entire pixels.
On the other hand, stroking those same shapes can often lead to fuzzy outlines because the default stroking attributes specify both that the default stroke width is 1.0 coordinates which often maps to exactly 1 device pixel and also that the stroke should straddle the border of the shape, falling half on either side of the border. Since the borders in many common shapes tend to fall directly on integer coordinates and those integer coordinates often map precisely to integer device locations, the borders tend to result in 50% coverage over the pixel rows and columns on either side of the border of the shape rather than 100% coverage on one or the other. Thus, fills may typically be crisp, but strokes are often fuzzy.
Two common solutions to avoid these fuzzy outlines are to use wider strokes that cover more pixels completely - typically a stroke width of 2.0 will achieve this if there are no scale transforms in effect - or to specify either the StrokeType.INSIDE or StrokeType.OUTSIDE stroke styles - which will bias the default single unit stroke onto one of the full pixel rows or columns just inside or outside the border of the shape.

  - getStrokeDashArray
```
public final ObservableList<Double> getStrokeDashArray()
```
    Defines the array representing the lengths of the dash segments. Alternate entries in the array represent the user space lengths of the opaque and transparent segments of the dashes. As the pen moves along the outline of the Shape to be stroked, the user space distance that the pen travels is accumulated. The distance value is used to index into the dash array. The pen is opaque when its current cumulative distance maps to an even element of the dash array (counting from 0) and transparent otherwise.
    An empty strokeDashArray indicates a solid line with no spaces. An odd length strokeDashArray behaves the same as an even length array constructed by implicitly repeating the indicated odd length array twice in succession ([20, 5, 15] behaves as if it were [20, 5, 15, 20, 5, 15]).
    Note that each dash segment will be capped by the decoration specified by the current stroke line cap.
    The image shows a shape with stroke dash array [25, 20, 5, 20] and 3 different values for the stroke line cap: StrokeLineCap.BUTT, StrokeLineCap.SQUARE (the default), and StrokeLineCap.ROUND

  - union
```
public static Shape union(Shape shape1,
                          Shape shape2)
```
    Returns a new Shape which is created as a union of the specified input shapes.
    The operation works with geometric areas occupied by the input shapes. For a single Shape such area includes the area occupied by the fill if the shape has a non-null fill and the area occupied by the stroke if the shape has a non-null stroke. So the area is empty for a shape with null stroke and null fill. The area of an input shape considered by the operation is independent on the type and configuration of the paint used for fill or stroke. Before the final operation the areas of the input shapes are transformed to the parent coordinate space of their respective topmost parent nodes.
    The resulting shape will include areas that were contained in any of the input shapes.
```
         shape1       +       shape2       =       result

    Parameters:
    
    shape1 - the first shape
    
    shape2 - the second shape
    
    Returns:
    
    the created Shape
  - subtract
```
public static Shape subtract(Shape shape1,
                             Shape shape2)
```
    Returns a new Shape which is created by subtracting the specified second shape from the first shape.
    The operation works with geometric areas occupied by the input shapes. For a single Shape such area includes the area occupied by the fill if the shape has a non-null fill and the area occupied by the stroke if the shape has a non-null stroke. So the area is empty for a shape with null stroke and null fill. The area of an input shape considered by the operation is independent on the type and configuration of the paint used for fill or stroke. Before the final operation the areas of the input shapes are transformed to the parent coordinate space of their respective topmost parent nodes.
    The resulting shape will include areas that were contained only in the first shape and not in the second shape.

  - intersect
```
public static Shape intersect(Shape shape1,
                              Shape shape2)
```
    Returns a new Shape which is created as an intersection of the specified input shapes.
    The operation works with geometric areas occupied by the input shapes. For a single Shape such area includes the area occupied by the fill if the shape has a non-null fill and the area occupied by the stroke if the shape has a non-null stroke. So the area is empty for a shape with null stroke and null fill. The area of an input shape considered by the operation is independent on the type and configuration of the paint used for fill or stroke. Before the final operation the areas of the input shapes are transformed to the parent coordinate space of their respective topmost parent nodes.
    The resulting shape will include only areas that were contained in both of the input shapes.
