Class Bloom

  • public class Bloom
extends Effect
    A high-level effect that makes brighter portions of the input image appear to glow, based on a configurable threshold.

    Example: 

    
 Bloom bloom = new Bloom();
 bloom.setThreshold(0.1);

 Rectangle rect = new Rectangle();
 rect.setX(10);
 rect.setY(10);
 rect.setWidth(160);
 rect.setHeight(80);
 rect.setFill(Color.DARKSLATEBLUE);

 Text text = new Text();
 text.setText("Bloom!");
 text.setFill(Color.ALICEBLUE);
 text.setFont(Font.font(null, FontWeight.BOLD, 40));
 text.setX(25);
 text.setY(65);
 text.setEffect(bloom);

    The code above produces the following:

    The visual effect of applying bloom on text

      • input

        public final ObjectProperty<Effect> inputProperty
        The input for this Effect. If set to null, or left unspecified, a graphical image of the Node to which the Effect is attached will be used as the input.
        Default value:
        null

        getInput(), setInput(Effect)

      • threshold

        public final DoubleProperty thresholdProperty
        The threshold value controls the minimum luminosity value of the pixels that will be made to glow. 
               Min: 0.0
       Max: 1.0
   Default: 0.3
  Identity: n/a
        Default value:
