2-3. Animating Shapes Along a Path
Problem
You want to create a way to animate shapes along a path.
Solution
Create an application that allows a user to draw the path for a shape to follow. The main Java classes used in this recipe are these:
javafx.animation.PathTransitionjavafx.animation.PathTransitionBuilderjavafx.scene.input.MouseEventjavafx.event.EventHandlerjavafx.geometry.Point2Djavafx.scene.shape.LineTojavafx.scene.shape.MoveTojavafx.scene.shape.Path
The following code demonstrates drawing a path for a shape to follow:
/**
* Working with the Scene Graph
* @author cdea
*/
public class WorkingWithTheSceneGraph extends Application {
Path onePath = new Path();
Point2D anchorPt;
