Enum OverrunStyle

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable , Comparable<OverrunStyle>

    public enum OverrunStyle
extends Enum<OverrunStyle>
    Defines the behavior of a labeled Control when the space for rendering the text is smaller than the space needed to render the entire string.
    Since:
    JavaFX 2.0

    • Enum Constant Summary

      Enum Constants
      Enum Constant Description
      CENTER_ELLIPSIS
      Trims out the center of the string being displayed and replaces the middle three characters with "...".
      CENTER_WORD_ELLIPSIS
      Same as CENTER_ELLIPSIS but ensures that the "..." occurs between full words.
      CLIP
      Any text which exceeds the bounds of the label will be clipped.
      ELLIPSIS
      If the text of the label exceeds the bounds of the label, then the last three characters which can be displayed will be "...".
      LEADING_ELLIPSIS
      Same as ELLIPSIS but puts the "..." at the beginning of the text instead of at the end
      LEADING_WORD_ELLIPSIS
      Same as WORD_ELLIPSIS but puts the "..." at the beginning of the text instead of at the end
      WORD_ELLIPSIS
      Same as ELLIPSIS, but first removes any partial words at the label boundary and then applies the ellipsis.

    • Enum Constant Detail

      • CLIP

        public static final OverrunStyle CLIP
        Any text which exceeds the bounds of the label will be clipped.

      • ELLIPSIS

        public static final OverrunStyle ELLIPSIS
        If the text of the label exceeds the bounds of the label, then the last three characters which can be displayed will be "...". If the label is too short to even display that, then only as many "." as possible will be shown.

      • WORD_ELLIPSIS

        public static final OverrunStyle WORD_ELLIPSIS
        Same as ELLIPSIS, but first removes any partial words at the label boundary and then applies the ellipsis. This ensures that the last characters displayed prior to the ellipsis are part of a full word. Where a full word cannot be displayed, this acts like ELLIPSIS and displays as many characters as possible.

      • CENTER_ELLIPSIS

        public static final OverrunStyle CENTER_ELLIPSIS
        Trims out the center of the string being displayed and replaces the middle three characters with "...". The first and last characters of the string are always displayed in the label, unless the label becomes so short that it cannot display anything other than the ellipsis.

      • CENTER_WORD_ELLIPSIS

        public static final OverrunStyle CENTER_WORD_ELLIPSIS
        Same as CENTER_ELLIPSIS but ensures that the "..." occurs between full words. If the label becomes so short that it is not possible to trim any additional words, then partial words are displayed and this behaves the same as CENTER_ELLIPSIS

      • LEADING_ELLIPSIS

        public static final OverrunStyle LEADING_ELLIPSIS
        Same as ELLIPSIS but puts the "..." at the beginning of the text instead of at the end

      • LEADING_WORD_ELLIPSIS

        public static final OverrunStyle LEADING_WORD_ELLIPSIS
        Same as WORD_ELLIPSIS but puts the "..." at the beginning of the text instead of at the end

    • Method Detail

      • values

        public static OverrunStyle[] values​()
        Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows: 
        for (OverrunStyle c : OverrunStyle.values())
 System.out.println(c);
        Returns:
        an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

      • valueOf

        public static OverrunStyle valueOf​(String name)
        Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)
        Parameters:
        name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
        Returns:
        the enum constant with the specified name
        Throws:
        IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
        NullPointerException - if the argument is null
