I'm trying to add a background image to my JavaFX 3D program, but it just translates the ImageView instead of setting it as the background. What am I missing?

I create the ImageView, and then add it to a separate Group object in the start method. The choiceLayout is another Group object.

Image image = new Image(Program.class.getResourceAsStream("picture.jpg"));
ImageView view = new ImageView(image);
view.setPreserveRatio(true);
view.getTransforms().add(new Translate(-image.getWidth() / 2, -image.getHeight() / 2, 800));
Group bg = new Group();
bg.getChildren().add(choiceLayout); 
bg.getChildren().add(view);

Scene choiceScene = new Scene(bg, 1024, 768, true);

Does this help? https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9738146/javafx-how-to-set-scene-background-image – Abra Mar 12 '21 at 14:01
Unfortunately, I've seen that the method in that post only works with 2D applications. – Ashfak Uddn Mar 12 '21 at 14:05
What if you set the `fill` of the `Scene` to an `ImagePattern`? – Slaw Mar 12 '21 at 22:45
Thank you, that's exactly what I needed. For anyone coming to this question in the future, do sceneName.setFill(new ImagePattern(new Image("file"))); – Ashfak Uddn Mar 13 '21 at 04:21
You can add that as an answer if you want. – Slaw Mar 13 '21 at 23:14
