An effect that simulates a light source shining on the given content, which can be used to give flat objects a more realistic, three-dimensional appearance.
Example:
Light.Distant light = new Light.Distant();
light.setAzimuth(-135.0);
Lighting lighting = new Lighting();
lighting.setLight(light);
lighting.setSurfaceScale(5.0);
Text text = new Text();
text.setText("JavaFX!");
text.setFill(Color.STEELBLUE);
text.setFont(Font.font(null, FontWeight.BOLD, 60));
text.setX(10.0);
text.setY(10.0);
text.setTextOrigin(VPos.TOP);
text.setEffect(lighting);
The code above produces the following:
