How to add LCD (liquid crystal display) to text in JavaFX?
The javafx.scene.text.Text class has a property named fontSmoothingType, which specifies the smoothing type of the text. You can set the value to this property using the set setFontSmoothingType() method accepts two parameters −
FontSmoothingType.GRAY − This specifies the default grayscale smoothing.
FontSmoothingType.LCD − This specifies the LCD smoothing. This uses the characteristics of an LCD display and enhances the smoothing of the node.
To add an LCD display to a text −
Create a text node by instantiating the javafx.scene.text.Text class.
Create a required font using one of the font() methods of the javafx.scene.text.Font class.
Set the font to the text using the setText() method.
Set the LCD smoothing type to the text by passing the FontSmoothingType.LCD as a parameter to the setFontSmoothingType() method.
Example
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.scene.Group;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.paint.Color;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
import javafx.scene.text.Font;
import javafx.scene.text.FontSmoothingType;
import javafx.scene.text.FontWeight;
import javafx.scene.text.Text;
public class LCDTextExample extends Application {
public void start(Stage stage) throws FileNotFoundException {
//Creating a text object
String str = "Tutorialspoint";
Text text = new Text(30.0, 100.0, str);
//Setting the font
Font font = Font.font("Brush Script MT", FontWeight.BOLD, 110);
text.setFont(font);
//Setting color of the text
text.setFill(Color.BLUEVIOLET);
//Setting the liquid crystal display to the text
text.setFontSmoothingType(FontSmoothingType.LCD);
//Setting the color of the text
text.setFill(Color.BROWN);
//Setting the width and color of the stroke
text.setStrokeWidth(1);
text.setStroke(Color.DARKRED);
//Setting the stage
Group root = new Group(text);
Scene scene = new Scene(root, 595, 150, Color.BEIGE);
stage.setTitle("Liquid Crystal Display");
stage.setScene(scene);
stage.show();
}
public static void main(String args[]){
launch(args);
}
