Text (JavaFX 8)

java.lang.Object
- javafx.scene.Node
- - javafx.scene.shape.Shape
  - - javafx.scene.text.Text

All Implemented Interfaces:: Styleable, EventTarget

@DefaultProperty(value="text")
public class Text
extends Shape

The Text class defines a node that displays a text. Paragraphs are separated by '\n' and the text is wrapped on paragraph boundaries.

import javafx.scene.text.*;

Text t = new Text(10, 50, "This is a test");
t.setFont(new Font(20));

import javafx.scene.text.*;

Text t = new Text();
text.setFont(new Font(20));
text.setText("First row\nSecond row");

import javafx.scene.text.*;

Text t = new Text();
text.setFont(new Font(20));
text.setWrappingWidth(200);
text.setTextAlignment(TextAlignment.JUSTIFY)
text.setText("The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog");

Since:: JavaFX 2.0

- Method Detail
  - usesMirroring
```
public boolean usesMirroring()
```
    Description copied from class: Node
    
    Determines whether a node should be mirrored when node orientation is right-to-left.
    When a node is mirrored, the origin is automatically moved to the top right corner causing the node to layout children and draw from right to left using a mirroring transformation. Some nodes may wish to draw from right to left without using a transformation. These nodes will will answer false and implement right-to-left orientation without using the automatic transformation.

    Since:
    
    JavaFX 8.0
  - getCssMetaData
```
public List<CssMetaData<? extends Styleable,?>> getCssMetaData()
```
    This method should delegate to Node.getClassCssMetaData() so that a Node's CssMetaData can be accessed without the need for reflection.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getCssMetaData in interface Styleable
    
    Overrides:
    
    getCssMetaData in class Shape
    
    Returns:
    
    The CssMetaData associated with this node, which may include the CssMetaData of its super classes.

```
public Object queryAccessibleAttribute(AccessibleAttribute attribute,
                                       Object... parameters)
```
    Description copied from class: Node
    
    This method is called by the assistive technology to request the value for an attribute.
    This method is commonly overridden by subclasses to implement attributes that are required for a specific role.
    If a particular attribute is not handled, the super class implementation must be called.
    
    Overrides:
    
    queryAccessibleAttribute in class Node
    
    Parameters:
    
    attribute - the requested attribute
    
    parameters - optional list of parameters
    
    Returns:
    
    the value for the requested attribute
    
    See Also:
    
    AccessibleAttribute
