JavaFX Translate Transition

Properties

The properties of the class are given below in the table.

Constructors

There are three constructors in the class.

1. Public TranslateTransition() : It creates the new instance of TranslateTransition with the default parameters.
    
2. Public TranslateTransition(Duration duration): It creates a new instance of TranslateTransition with the specified duration.
    
3. Public TranslateTransition(Duration duration, Node node): It creates the new instance of Translate Transition with the specified duration and node.

Example

import javafx.animation.TranslateTransition;
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.scene.Group;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.paint.Color;
import javafx.scene.shape.Circle;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
import javafx.util.Duration;

public class SliderUI extends Application {  

    @Override  
    public void start(Stage primaryStage) throws Exception 
    { 
       Circle cir = new Circle(50,100,50);  
           
           cir.setFill(Color.BLUE);  
           cir.setStroke(Color.RED);  
             
           TranslateTransition translate = new TranslateTransition();  
             
           translate.setByX(500);  
             
           translate.setDuration(Duration.millis(7000));  
             
           translate.setCycleCount(500);  
             
           translate.setAutoReverse(true);  
             
           translate.setNode(cir);  
             
           translate.play();  
             
           Group root = new Group();  
           root.getChildren().addAll(cir);  
           Scene scene = new Scene(root,500,200);  
    primaryStage.setScene(scene);  
    primaryStage.setTitle("JavaFX Translate Transition example");  
    primaryStage.show();  
      
}  
      public static void main(String[] args) {  
        launch(args);  
    }  
}

Output: 

To create Translate Transition to JavaFX, we must import all required libraries such as javafx.animation.TranslateTransition, javafx.application.Application, javafx.scene.Group, javafx.scene.Scene, javafx.scene.paint. Color, javafx.scene.shape.Circle, javafx.stage.Stage, javafx.util.Duration. Then we created a single class called AnimationUI which extends the Application class. Also, we must override the start method to provide implementation details. This method creates the Stage object as the primaryStage. In order for the container to hold the translation circle, a Group object is created and transferred to the scene class object.

The circle is created with the help of the size parameters and the constructor. The stage is set, the title is set, and the show method () is called the output display. To launch the application, the start method (args) is called the main () method. Output A container-like structure is also displayed with the heading, "example JavaFX Translate Transition." Also, it shows a circle full of blue that translates into a certain plane.
