0 1 2 minutes read

ClosePath class is a part of JavaFX. ClosePath class closes the path by connecting the two unconnected ends of a specified path. ClosePath class inherits PathElement class.

Constructor of the class:

ClosePath() : Creates a new Closepath Object.

Commonly Used Method:

Method	Explanation
toString()	Returns the string representation of ClosePath Object.

Example: Java program to create a path and add multiple LineTo objects to it and close the path using ClosePath object and display it:

In this program, we will create a Path object named path.
Create four LineTo object with specified X and Y coordinates names Lineto, Lineto1, Lineto2, Lineto3.
Initially the path is not closed so we will close the path by adding a ClosePath object named close.
Then create a MoveTo object named moveto.
Now add the MoveTo and Lineto objects to the path.
Add this path to Group object and add the group object to the scene and add the scene to the stage and call the show() function to display the final results.
