# Class Reflection

java.lang.Object
javafx.scene.effect.Effect
javafx.scene.effect.Reflection

public class Reflection extends Effect
An effect that renders a reflected version of the input below the actual input content.

Note that the reflection of a `Node` with a `Reflection` effect installed will not respond to mouse events or the containment methods on the `Node`.

Example:

    Reflection reflection = new Reflection();
    reflection.setFraction(0.7);

    Text text = new Text();
    text.setX(10.0);
    text.setY(50.0);
    text.setCache(true);
    text.setText("Reflections on JavaFX...");
    text.setFill(Color.web("0x3b596d"));
    text.setFont(Font.font(null, FontWeight.BOLD, 40));
    text.setEffect(reflection);

The code above produces the following:
