How-To's > How do I create a page-over flip?

Version: JavaFX 1.3

The page-over flip simulates flipping the pages of a book. It can be effective for presenting images or text. The page-over flip is better suited to entertainment, advertising, or aesthetics-oriented applications than productivity applications.

Use the page-over flip transition when the images or text presented to the user do not need to be seen or processed simultaneously.

To create a page-over flip in the JavaFX Script programming language, start with the code from one of the following samples and modify it to suit your purposes.

Examples

• BookPanel
