Overview

The Group class represents a list of Nodes objects. Example:

the code:

import javafx.scene.*;
import javafx.scene.paint.*;
import javafx.scene.geometry.*;
Group {
    content: for(x in [0..4]) {
        Rectangle {
            y: indexof x * 20
            width: 100 
            height: 10 
            fill:Color.RED
        }
    }
}

produces:
