Class CubicCurve

javafx.scene.shape.CubicCurve

All Implemented Interfaces:: Styleable, EventTarget

public class CubicCurve
extends Shape

The CubiCurve class defines a cubic Bézier parametric curve segment in (x,y) coordinate space. Drawing a curve that intersects both the specified coordinates (startX, startY) and (endX, enfY), using the specified points (controlX1, controlY1) and (controlX2, controlY2) as Bézier control points. Example:

import javafx.scene.shape.*;

CubicCurve cubic = new CubicCurve();
cubic.setStartX(0.0f);
cubic.setStartY(50.0f);
cubic.setControlX1(25.0f);
cubic.setControlY1(0.0f);
cubic.setControlX2(75.0f);
cubic.setControlY2(100.0f);
cubic.setEndX(100.0f);
cubic.setEndY(50.0f);
}

Since:: JavaFX 2.0
