1 | Translation | Translation is used to change the position of the node. The class javafx.scene.transform.Translate represents the translation. | 2 | Rotation | Rotation is used to rotate the object from its origin by a certain angle. The class javafx.scene.transform.Rotate represents the rotation. | 3 | Scaling | Scaling is used to alter the size of the node. The class javafx.scene.transform.Scale represents Scaling. | 4 | Shearing | Shearing is used to alter the slope of the object in a particular direction. The class javafx.scene.transform.Shear represents Shearing. |
Steps to apply transformation on the nodeIn JavaFX, applying transformation to a node is pretty easy. We just need to follow the steps given below in order to apply the transformation. - Instantiate the respective class. For example; to create the 2D scale, Use:
where scale is the Scale class object. - Set the appropriate properties of the scale class object. For example, to set the scale object properties, Use the setter methods like following:
- Apply the transformation to the respective node. Use the following syntax for this purpose.
