Class VerticalMirrorTextEffect

java.lang.Object
  de.enough.polish.ui.TextEffect
      de.enough.polish.ui.texteffects.VerticalMirrorTextEffect

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable

public class VerticalMirrorTextEffect
extends TextEffect

Adds a vertically mirrored text as a shadow to the text.

Activate the shadow text effect by specifying text-effect: mirror-shadow; in your polish.css file. You can finetune the effect with following attributes:

• text-mirror-color: the color of the shadow, defaults to the specified font-color.
• text-mirror-padding: the gap between the text and the mirror-shadow, defaults to 0.
• text-mirror-steps: The number of pixels until the mirror-shadow fades away, defaults to the given font's height.
• text-mirror-start-translucency: The opaqueness of the first row of the shadow in percent: between 0 (fully transparent) and 100 (fully opaque)
• text-mirror-end-translucency: The opaqueness of the last row of the shadow in percent: between 0 (fully transparent) and 100 (fully opaque)

Note that this effect is optimized for displaying a single line of text. When your text contains line-breaks, many temporary int arrays will be created. Also note that this effect requires MIDP 2.0 support.
