Explain the drawing mode face property of 3D shapes in JavaFX


This drawing mode property defines/specifies the mode used to draw the 3D shape. You can set the value to the draw mode property of a 3d object using the setDrawMode() method (Shape class).

JavaFX supports two kinds of draw modes represented by constants of the Enum named DrawModeFILL and LINE.

Example

import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.scene.Group;
import javafx.scene.PerspectiveCamera;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.paint.Color;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
import javafx.scene.shape.DrawMode;
import javafx.scene.shape.Sphere;
import javafx.scene.text.Font;
import javafx.scene.text.FontPosture;
import javafx.scene.text.FontWeight;
import javafx.scene.text.Text;
public class DrawModeProperty extends Application {
   public void start(Stage stage) {
      //Drawing a Sphere
      Sphere sphere1 = new Sphere(100);
      sphere1.setTranslateX(80.0);
      sphere1.setTranslateY(180.0);
      sphere1.setTranslateZ(150.0);
      //Setting the property "draw mode"
      sphere1.setDrawMode(DrawMode.LINE);
      //Drawing a Sphere
      Sphere sphere2 = new Sphere(100);
      sphere2.setTranslateX(380.0);
      sphere2.setTranslateY(180.0);
      sphere2.setTranslateZ(150.0);
      //Setting the property "draw mode"
      sphere2.setDrawMode(DrawMode.FILL);
      //Setting the perspective camera
      PerspectiveCamera cam = new PerspectiveCamera();
      cam.setTranslateX(-50);
      cam.setTranslateY(50);
      cam.setTranslateZ(0);
      Font font = Font.font("verdana", FontWeight.BOLD, FontPosture.REGULAR, 15);
      Text label1 = new Text("Draw Mode: LINE");
      label1.setFont(font);
      label1.setX(40);
      label1.setY(300);
      Text label2 = new Text("Draw Mode: FILL");
      label2.setFont(font);
      label2.setX(280);
      label2.setY(300);
      //Setting the Scene
      Group root = new Group(sphere1, sphere2, label1, label2);
      Scene scene = new Scene(root, 595, 300, Color.BEIGE);
      scene.setCamera(cam);
      stage.setTitle("3D Shape Property: Draw Mode");
      stage.setScene(scene);
      stage.show();
   }
   public static void main(String args[]){
      launch(args);
   }
}
