Class QuadCurveTo

java.lang.Object

javafx.scene.shape.PathElement

javafx.scene.shape.QuadCurveTo

public class QuadCurveTo
extends PathElement

Creates a curved path element, defined by two new points, by drawing a Quadratic Bézier curve that intersects both the current coordinates and the specified coordinates (x, y), using the specified point (controlX, controlY) as a Bézier control point. All coordinates are specified in double precision.

For more information on path elements see the Path and PathElement classes.

Example:

import javafx.scene.shape.*;

Path path = new Path();

MoveTo moveTo = new MoveTo();
moveTo.setX(0.0f);
moveTo.setY(50.0f);

QuadCurveTo quadTo = new QuadCurveTo();
quadTo.setControlX(25.0f);
quadTo.setControlY(0.0f);
quadTo.setX(50.0f);
quadTo.setY(50.0f);

path.getElements().add(moveTo);
path.getElements().add(cubicTo);

Since:: JavaFX 2.0
