i have a Jframe.in order to paint it i not using paintComponent but ordinary function containing g.drawstring("sd",0,0).
when ever i click the mouse the string should appear at that point and it should move with the cursor until another click appears.
my problem after clicking the string is not appearing immediately it appears only after the mouse moves
iam calling paint method in both mouseclicked and mousemoved
anyone help me
Answer my question, if the mouse stops moving, text disappears?
if yes, you need use paintComponent method
Answer my question, if the mouse stops moving, text disappears?
if yes, you need use paintComponent method
when i click its not appearing but when mouse start to move text appear
addMouseListener(this);
addMouseMotionListener(this);
//
use repaint(); inside mouse methods
public class MyPanel extends JPanel implements MouseListener, MouseMotionListener {
private Point p;
public MyPanel() {
super();
p = new Point(0, 50);
setBackground(Color.red);
addMouseListener(this);
addMouseMotionListener(this);
}
public void paint(Graphics g) {
//super.paint(g); //UNCOMMENT THIS
g.drawString("Error: Can't move!", p.x, p.y);
}
public void mousePressed(MouseEvent e) {
p = e.getPoint();
repaint();
}
...
As usual, you should override paintComponent, not paint
