## Class Lighting

- java.lang.Object
- - javafx.scene.effect.Effect
  - - javafx.scene.effect.Lighting

-     public class Lighting
      extends Effect

  An effect that simulates a light source shining on the given content, which can be used to give flat objects a more realistic, three-dimensional appearance.

  Example:

       Light.Distant light = new Light.Distant();
       light.setAzimuth(-135.0);

       Lighting lighting = new Lighting();
       lighting.setLight(light);
       lighting.setSurfaceScale(5.0);

       Text text = new Text();
       text.setText("JavaFX!");
       text.setFill(Color.STEELBLUE);
       text.setFont(Font.font(null, FontWeight.BOLD, 60));
       text.setX(10.0);
       text.setY(10.0);
       text.setTextOrigin(VPos.TOP);

       text.setEffect(lighting);

  The code above produces the following:
