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

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

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

  - ### values

    public static CycleMethod[] values()
    Returns an array containing the constants of this enum class, in the order they are declared.
    Returns:
      an array containing the constants of this enum class, in the order they are declared

  - ### valueOf

    public static CycleMethod valueOf(String name)
    Returns the enum constant of this class with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this class. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)
