custom-painting

I am trying to use this tutorial so that I can have a transparent button. It works fine for the main background, but it doesn't draw over the other children. If I use BringToFront() it then doesn't have the other child's drawing where it should be. I have started to get around it by adding this to the code: foreach (Control child in Parent.Controls) { if(child != this) { InvokePaintBackground(child, pea); InvokePaint(child, pea); } } And although I get some of what I want, it's in the wrong location (on the left instead of in the middle where it shoudl be) and the shapes which are drawn in the

So I have this code: package tictactoe; import java.awt.Graphics; import java.awt.Graphics2D; import javax.swing.JFrame; import javax.swing.JPanel; public class TicTacToe extends JFrame { public static void main(String[] args) { JFrame masterFrame = new JFrame("TicTacToe"); JPanel drawingPanel = new JPanel(); GameBoard theGame = new GameBoard(); masterFrame.add(drawingPanel); masterFrame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE); masterFrame.setSize(504, 504); masterFrame.setResizable(false); masterFrame.setLocationRelativeTo(null); masterFrame.setVisible(true); } //End of Main method

Hi I have a JFrame and there are two JPanels on top of it. My intention is to draw on the JPanels. Can anyone please share any Java code? All the JComponents ( of which JPanel inherits from ) have a paintComponent(Graphics g ) method that you can override. Basically... oh.. well, I think this would be more appropiate: http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/GUI/java2d/java2dpart1.html Naive sample: Source code: import javax.swing.*; import java.awt.*; import java.awt.geom.*; public class X { public static void main( String [] args ) { JFrame frame = new JFrame(); frame.add( new JPanel(

When performing some custom painting on a button's Graphics2D object, I get the following results: The leftmost button is untoggled and the other is toggled. As you can see, the toggled button has these white "stretch marks." Why are these there and how do I remove them? And here is the code I use to draw the border: // Draw border of button if(!getModel().isSelected()) { g2.fillRoundRect(2, 2, getWidth() - 5, getHeight() - 5, ARC_WIDTH, ARC_HEIGHT); g2.setColor(Color.BLACK); g2.drawRoundRect(0, 0, getWidth() - 1, getHeight() - 1, ARC_WIDTH, ARC_HEIGHT); g2.setColor(Color.WHITE); g2

I want to program an application that lets you draw circles with a mouse click on the left side of a JFrame , and all the points are getting "mirrored" to the right side. The first problem I encountered was that when I try to implement this draw-mechanic in my frame, no circles appear. public class Application{ int x,y; private JPanel container; public static void main(String[] args) { SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() { @Override public void run() { new Application().gui(); } }); } public void gui() { int height = 250; int width = 700; JFrame jframe = new JFrame(); container = new
