## Enum CycleMethod

- java.lang.Object
- - java.lang.Enum<CycleMethod>
  - - javafx.scene.paint.CycleMethod

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    `Serializable`, `Comparable<CycleMethod>`

      public enum CycleMethod
      extends Enum<CycleMethod>

  This enum defines one of the following methods to use when painting outside the gradient bounds: `CycleMethod.NO_CYCLE`, `CycleMethod.REFLECT`, or `CycleMethod.REPEAT`.
  Since:
    JavaFX 2.0

- - ### Enum Constant Summary

    Enum Constants
    Enum Constant | Description
    --- | ---
    `NO_CYCLE` | Defines the cycle method that uses the terminal colors to fill the remaining area.
    `REFLECT` | Defines the cycle method that reflects the gradient colors start-to-end, end-to-start to fill the remaining area.
    `REPEAT` | Defines the cycle method that repeats the gradient colors to fill the remaining area.

  - ### Method Summary

    All Methods Static Methods Concrete Methods
    Modifier and Type | Method | Description
    --- | --- | ---
    `static CycleMethod` | `valueOf​(String name)` | Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name.
    `static CycleMethod[]` | `values()` | Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared.

- - ### Enum Constant Detail

    - #### NO_CYCLE

          public static final CycleMethod NO_CYCLE

      Defines the cycle method that uses the terminal colors to fill the remaining area.

    - #### REFLECT

          public static final CycleMethod REFLECT

      Defines the cycle method that reflects the gradient colors start-to-end, end-to-start to fill the remaining area.

    - #### REPEAT

          public static final CycleMethod REPEAT

      Defines the cycle method that repeats the gradient colors to fill the remaining area.

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### values

          public static CycleMethod[] 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 (CycleMethod c : CycleMethod.values())
              System.out.println(c);

      Returns:
        an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

    - #### valueOf

          public static CycleMethod 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
