JavaFX: Set label text color

By using ‘setTextFill’ method of Label class, you can set the text color.

Ex

Label label1 = new Label();

label1.setText("Hello JavaFX");

label1.setTextFill(Color.web("#ff0000", 0.8));

Find the below working application.

LabelApp.java

package com.sample.demos;

import static javafx.geometry.Pos.CENTER;

import java.io.FileNotFoundException;

import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.control.Label;
import javafx.scene.layout.VBox;
import javafx.scene.paint.Color;
import javafx.stage.Stage;

public class LabelApp extends Application {


 @Override
 public void start(Stage primaryStage) throws FileNotFoundException {

  Label label1 = new Label();
  label1.setText("Hello JavaFX");
  label1.setTextFill(Color.web("#ff0000", 0.8));

  VBox vBox = new VBox(10, label1);
  vBox.setAlignment(CENTER);

  Scene scene = new Scene(vBox, 200, 200);

  /* Set the scene to primaryStage, and call the show method */
  primaryStage.setTitle("JavaFX Label Example");
  primaryStage.setScene(scene);
  primaryStage.show();
 }

}

TestFX.java

package com.sample.demos;

import javafx.application.Application;

public class TestFX {
 public static void main(String args[]) {
  Application.launch(LabelApp.class, args);
 }
}
