Package javafx.scene.text

## Class Text

- java.lang.Object
- - javafx.scene.Node
  - - javafx.scene.shape.Shape
    - - javafx.scene.text.Text

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    `Styleable`, `EventTarget`

      @DefaultProperty("text")
      public class Text
      extends Shape

  The `Text` class defines a node that displays a text. Paragraphs are separated by `'\n'` and the text is wrapped on paragraph boundaries.

      import javafx.scene.text.*;

      Text t = new Text(10, 50, "This is a test");
      t.setFont(new Font(20));

      import javafx.scene.text.*;

      Text t = new Text();
      text.setFont(new Font(20));
      text.setText("First row\nSecond row");

      import javafx.scene.text.*;

      Text t = new Text();
      text.setFont(new Font(20));
      text.setWrappingWidth(200);
      text.setTextAlignment(TextAlignment.JUSTIFY)
      text.setText("The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog");

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### usesMirroring

          public boolean usesMirroring()

      Description copied from class: `Node`
      Determines whether a node should be mirrored when node orientation is right-to-left.

      When a node is mirrored, the origin is automatically moved to the top right corner causing the node to layout children and draw from right to left using a mirroring transformation. Some nodes may wish to draw from right to left without using a transformation. These nodes will will answer `false` and implement right-to-left orientation without using the automatic transformation.

        true if this `Node` should be mirrored
