JavaFX Rotate Transition

This transition is used to apply the rotation transition on the node. It rotates the node along any of the three axes over the specified duration.

RotateTransition is represented by the class javafx.animation.RotateTransition. We just need to instantiate this class in order to generate an appropriate RotateTransition.

Properties

The properties of the class along with their setter methods are described in the following table.

Property	Description	Setter Methods
axis	This is a object type property of the class Point3D. This represents the axis of rotate transition.	setAxis(Point3D value)
byAngle	This is a double type property. This represents the angle by which the object will be rotated.	setByAngle(double value)
duration	This is the object type property of the class Duration. This represents the duration of the rotate transition.	setDuration(Duration value)
fromAngle	It is a double type property. It represents the start Angle of the rotate transition.	setFromAngle(double value)
node	It is an object type property of the class Node. It represents the node on which the rotate transition to be applied.	setNode(Node value)
toAngle	It is a double type property. It represents the stop angle value for the rotate transition.	setToAngle(double value)

Constructors

There are three constructors in the class.

public RotateTransition() : creates the new instance of RotateTransition with the default parameters.
public RotateTransition(Duration duration) : Creates the new instance of RotateTransition with the specified duration value
public RotateTransition(Duration duration, Node node): creates the new instance of RotateTransition with the specified duration value and Node on which, it is applied.

Example

In the following example, we have made a rectangle rotating along the Z-axis by 360 degree.

    package application;
import javafx.animation.RotateTransition;
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.geometry.Point3D;
import javafx.scene.Group;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.paint.Color;
import javafx.scene.shape.Rectangle;
import javafx.scene.transform.Rotate;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
import javafx.util.Duration;
public class Rotate_Transition extends Application{

    @Override
    public void start(Stage primaryStage) throws Exception {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    
        //Creating Rectangle 
        Rectangle rect = new Rectangle(200,100,200,200);
        rect.setFill(Color.LIMEGREEN);
        rect.setStroke(Color.HOTPINK);
        rect.setStrokeWidth(5);
        
        //Instantiating RotateTransition class 
        RotateTransition rotate = new RotateTransition();
        
        //Setting Axis of rotation 
        rotate.setAxis(Rotate.Z_AXIS);
        
        // setting the angle of rotation 
        rotate.setByAngle(360);
        
        //setting cycle count of the rotation 
        rotate.setCycleCount(500);
        
        //Setting duration of the transition 
        rotate.setDuration(Duration.millis(1000));
        
        //the transition will be auto reversed by setting this to true 
        rotate.setAutoReverse(true);
            
        //setting Rectangle as the node onto which the 
// transition will be applied
        rotate.setNode(rect);
        
        //playing the transition 
        rotate.play();
        
        //Configuring Group and Scene 
        Group root = new Group();
        root.getChildren().add(rect);
        Scene scene = new Scene(root,600,400,Color.BLACK);
        primaryStage.setScene(scene);
        primaryStage.setTitle("Rotate Transition example");
        primaryStage.show();
        
    }
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        launch(args);
    }

}
