Issue with getting a graphical object to print to panel - java

I am having issues with the below program I have been working on. The program is supposed to take the users' input via a GUI and then use those to create and draw an object. After some testing I know that the object (either oval or rectangular) is being created. The issue I am running into is that the object is not being drawn within the panel. What am I doing wrong here and how can I get the draw method to be called. I am very new to the graphics methods and maybe making a simple mistake.

There are a number small problems, which are combining to produce a larger problem.
null layouts are just a bad idea. Take the time to learn how to use and mix appropriate layouts
Don't use String as a carrier of information if you can avoid it. It's too easy to screw up. In you case, learn how to make use of a ListCellRenderer to customise the JComoboBox so it can carry Color as it's base value
There should be a single instance of Drawing which should render ALL the shapes. You then add each new shape to it. Instead of trying to create new instances for each individual shape.
In order for something to be painted, it must be added to something which can be painted. This means that the Drawing panel needs to be added to your frame at some point (or a contained which is directly or indirectly contained within your frame).
This is a very basic re-work of your code. It will generate a oval or rectangle at a random location with a random color. I'll leave you to fill in the rest of your requirements around it

Need help to adjust a Zoom system in Graphics2D - Java

This is my 1st question here. I'm trying to build a White Page adjustable by zoom. It's inside a JScrollPane, so the size of the JScrollPane's ScrollBars are adjustable in the Dimension of that JPanel.
I want to adjust the size of those ScrollBars as the Size of the page (variables width and height in the code) + 2 borderSize, so the full size is equal the Page + margin of a borderSize around it. It works if zoom = 1.0.
If zoom < 1.0, the scroll bar is smaller than the Page and cut a piece of it. If zoom > 1 the Dimension size is way bigger than the page, leaving a huger border on its right and down corners, bigger than the borderSize.
How do I do this?
PS: I'm started learning java by myself, in the Quarantine last year, never had a teacher, just the internet, so any critics or suggestions, please, tell me.

How can i improve this? Also, i have no idea how to update the JScrollPane's scrollbars together with the zoom.Thanks for the help.
UPDATE: i've created a minimal reproducible exemple.
Introduction
I started working on this before you updated your question. I used a zoom percentage rather than a zoom factor.
I created the following GUI and set the initial state to 30 percent.
I made the inner JPanel a checkerboard so you can more easily see the zoom. I modified your initial values so the inner JPanel would represent an 8 1/2 x 11 piece of paper at 50 pixels per inch.
Here's the same GUI at 100 percent.
Here's the same GUI at 10 percent.
Explanation
I created a JFrame and a control JPanel to hold the JSlider. I used a GridLayout to create the control JPanel.
I created an inner JPanel to hold the drawing and a display JPanel that holds the JScrollPane. I made the display JPanel proportionate to the size of the inner JPanel so I wouldn't have any stretching issues.
Getting the GUI to revalidate / repaint turned out to be the biggest challenge. I wound up having to invalidate the JScrollPane, both JScrollBars, and the display JPanel. I also had to reset the JScrollBars to zero each time I changed the zoom percentage.
Code
Here's the complete runnable code. I made all of the classes inner classes so I could post this as one code block.

I've finally did it. Started by not using transformation for scaling it, but making a new draw with the size zoomed, adapting all sizes in the method setSizes(), and adjusting the Dimension by those sizes.

int maxAreaHeight, maxAreaWidth; //max size of area
public MyPanel() {

}
#Override

setSizes();
return new Dimension (maxAreaWidth,maxAreaHeight);
}
#Override
public void paintComponent (Graphics g) {
super.paintComponent(g);
Graphics2D g2d = (Graphics2D) g.create();
g2d= createBase(g2d);
}
public void draw() { //this method is to update the draw from the main
repaint();
}
public Float getZoom() {return Float.valueOf(zoom)/100;}
public void setZoom(int zom) {zoom=zom;}
public int getZoomInt() {return this.zoom;}
public void setSizes () {
widthz= width*getZoomInt()/100;
heightz=height*getZoomInt()/100;
maxHeight = heightz+2*borderSize;
maxWidth = widthz +2*borderSize;
maxAreaHeight = this.getY()+maxHeight;
maxAreaWidth = this.getX()+maxWidth;
if (this.getSize() != new Dimension(maxAreaWidth, maxAreaHeight)) {
this.setSize(maxAreaWidth, maxAreaHeight);
}
}
public Graphics2D createBase(Graphics2D g2d) {
Graphics2D g = g2d;
setSizes();
g.setColor(Color.WHITE);
g.fillRect(this.getX()+borderSize,this.getY()+borderSize, widthz, heightz);
g.setColor(Color.BLACK);
g.drawRect(this.getX()+borderSize+borderSize*zoom/100,this.getY()+borderSize+borderSize*zoom/100,widthz-2*borderSize*zoom/100,heightz-2*borderSize*zoom/100);
return g;
}
}
Thanks for all the help.

Trying to draw on a canvas with sliders

I am attempting to use jsliders to allow a user to pinpoint the origin of a circle to be drawn on a canvas. I am using a button to show and hide the circle. I am using paint on an inner jpanel so that paint will not write over components. However, the coordinates inside the jpanel are different than the coordinates for the entire frame. So, it is very difficult for me to get the coordinates of the jslider and then translate it to the jpanel to draw the circle. Is there an easy way to figure this out without a ton of guess and check? I am also using the custom layout miglayout. I have included the code for my GUI class as well as my custom JPanel I made so I could mess with the paint method.
public class CircleGUI extends JFrame implements ActionListener {
private MigLayout layout = new MigLayout();
private CustomPanel innerpanel;
private JSlider x,y;
private JColorChooser colorpick;
private JButton state;
private boolean bstate;
CircleGUI() {
initialize();
}
private void initialize() {
Border blackline = BorderFactory.createLineBorder(Color.black);
bstate = false;
x = new JSlider(JSlider.HORIZONTAL,650,325);
x.setPaintTicks(true);
x.setPaintLabels(true);
x.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(650,0));
y = new JSlider(JSlider.HORIZONTAL,650,325);
y.setPaintTicks(true);
y.setPaintLabels(true);
y.setInverted(true);
y.setOrientation(JSlider.VERTICAL);
y.setPreferredSize(new Dimension (0,600));
colorpick = new JColorChooser();
state = new JButton("Show");
state.addActionListener(e -> {
if(!bstate) {
int positionx = x.getValue() - 80;
int positiony = y.getValue();
Color c = colorpick.getColor();
innerpanel.setColor(c);
innerpanel.setX(positionx);
innerpanel.setY(positiony);
innerpanel.repaint();
state.setText("Hide");
bstate = true;
} else {
Color transparent = new Color(0,0,0,0);
innerpanel.setColor(transparent);
innerpanel.repaint();
state.setText("Show");
bstate = false;
}
});
JPanel outerpanel = new JPanel(layout);
innerpanel = new CustomPanel();
innerpanel.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(600,600));
innerpanel.setBorder(blackline);
outerpanel.add(x,"wrap");
outerpanel.add(y,"split 2");
outerpanel.add(innerpanel);
outerpanel.add(state,"wrap");
outerpanel.add(colorpick);
this.setSize(1000, 1000);
this.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
this.add(outerpanel);
}
#Override

}
}
public class CustomPanel extends JPanel implements ActionListener {
private Color c;
private int x;
private int y;
public CustomPanel() {
c = null;
}
#Override
public void actionPerformed (ActionEvent e) {
}
public void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
super.paintComponent(g);
Graphics2D g2 = (Graphics2D) g;
g2.setPaint(c);
g2.fill(new Ellipse2D.Double(x, y, 100, 100));
}
public void setColor(Color c) {
this.c = c;
}
public void setX(int x) {
this.x = x;
}
public void setY(int y) {
this.y = y;
}
}
Your problem is you are trying to make a one-to-one mapping between the value of the JSlider and the coordinate in your CustomPanel. You should use the JSlider value as a percentage, i.e. minimum value zero and maximum value 100. If you want the circle to appear in the middle of the CustomPanel so you place both JSliders in their mid-points, i.e. both at 50%. Then you calculate 50% of the corresponding dimension to get the coordinate. If the width of CustomPanel is 600, then 50% of 600 is 300 so positionx needs to be 300.
The only thing I changed in your code is the calculation of positionx and positiony.

Add a JComponent via Child to Parent

I want to accomplish something very similar to the image a Rectangle whit a Selector Line.
Basically, I have a Rectangle and I want to have a selector line all around it.
For that, I wanted to create an additional JComponent.
At the moment I can only draw the Rectangle. How could I get the parentPanel JPanel inside the Rectangle class, so that I could add the selector?
public class TestPanel extends JFrame {
public class Rectangle extends JComponent {
public Rectangle(){
setBounds(x1, y1, x2, y2);
JPanel Selector = new JPanel();
//Adds Selector to parentPanel within Rectangle
//setBounds(x1-1, y1-1, x2+1, y2+1)
//!Problem parent is initially null! cant even a use property
//Life hacks?
}
#Override
protected void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
super.paintComponent(g);
g.drawRect(0, 0, getWidth(), getHeight());
}
}
public TestPanel() {
Rectangle Rectangle = new Rectangle();
JPanel parentFrame = new JPanel();
parentFrame.add(Rectangle);
setSize(200, 200);
setVisible(true);
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
new TestPanel();
}
}
If I try to add the selector inside the rectangle, it will get out of the drawing area. If I resize the drawing area, it won't be scalable for later development.
If possible I would avoid dual binding like:
public TestPanel() {
Rectangle Rectangle = new Rectangle();
JPanel parentPanel = new JPanel();
parentPanel.add(Rectangle);
Rectangle.addParent(parentPanel)
...
}
Again, I'm not 100% clear on what you're trying to achieve. If what you wish to create is a user-created dashed line, one that can change with mouse press/drag/release, then you don't need to create a new component but rather use a MouseAdapter as a MouseListener and MouseMotionListener, all to help you create the Rectangle, and then simply draw the Rectangle with a dashed line using an appropriate Stroke, as per this answer.
For example, something like would create a dashed line that is user-selectable:
import java.awt.BasicStroke;
import java.awt.Color;
import java.awt.Dimension;
import java.awt.Graphics;
import java.awt.Graphics2D;
import java.awt.Point;

private static final Stroke DASHED_STROKE = new BasicStroke(2, BasicStroke.CAP_BUTT,
BasicStroke.JOIN_BEVEL, 0, new float[] { 5 }, 0);
private static final Color DASHED_COLOR = Color.LIGHT_GRAY;
private Rectangle rectangle = null;
public SelectorPanel() {
MyMouse myMouse = new MyMouse();

addMouseMotionListener(myMouse);
}

private Point p1 = null;
#Override

p1 = e.getPoint();
rectangle = null;
}
#Override

if (p1 != null) {
createRectangle(e);
}
}
#Override

if (p1 != null) {
createRectangle(e);
p1 = null;
}
}
private void createRectangle(MouseEvent e) {

int y = Math.min(p1.y, p2.y);
int width = Math.abs(p1.x - p2.x);
int height = Math.abs(p1.y - p2.y);
rectangle = new Rectangle(x, y, width, height);
repaint();
}
}

Drawing on top of multiple JButtons

So, I have multiple objects of the class Square, which is the subclass of JButton. I have an instance of the class Board, which contains a few instances of Square. What I want to do is when I press one of the buttons (squares), draw a shape (a circle) on top of it. For doing that, I have a boolean variable in the Square class, namely isClicked, that basically decides what has to be drawn in the paintComponent method.
The problem is that buttons start to behave in a weird way when I have a few of them. Surprisingly, if there is only one of them, there is no problem at all. At first, I had thought the problem might be related to threads, however, I put the main code into invokeLater method and that did not help at all.
I saw a solution using BufferedImage, but I would like to see if there is any possibility to solve the problem doing it my way.
Sorry for possibly not perfect English.
Square class:
public class Square extends JButton implements ActionListener {
private int number;
private boolean isClicked;
public Square(int x) {
number = x;
isClicked = false;
}
#Override
protected void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
Graphics2D g2d = (Graphics2D) g;
if (!isClicked) {
super.paintComponent(g);
} else {
System.out.println("EXECUTED for: " + number);
g2d.drawOval(this.getX(), this.getY(), 100, 100);
}
}
#Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
isClicked = !isClicked;
System.out.println(isClicked + " " + number);
repaint();
}
}
Board class:
public class Board extends JPanel {
private static final int BOARD_WIDTH = (int) (TicTacToe.WIDTH * 0.7);
private static final int VERTICAL_LINE_LENGTH = (int) (TicTacToe.WIDTH * 0.5);
private static final int HORIZONTAL_LINE_LENGTH = (int) (TicTacToe.HEIGHT * 0.8);
private static final int STROKE_WIDTH = 5;
private Square[] squares;
public Board() {
}
public void addButtons() {
squares = new Square[9];
for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
Square square = new Square(i);
square.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(30, 30));
square.addActionListener(square);
this.add(square);
squares[i] = square;
((GridLayout)this.getLayout()).setHgap(30);
((GridLayout)this.getLayout()).setVgap(30);
}
}
public Square[] getButtons() {
return squares;
}
#Override
protected void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
super.paintComponent(g);
Graphics2D g2d = (Graphics2D) g;
g2d.setStroke(new BasicStroke(STROKE_WIDTH));
// Horiztontal lines
g2d.drawLine(0, TicTacToe.HEIGHT / 3,
BOARD_WIDTH, TicTacToe.HEIGHT / 3);
g2d.drawLine(0, 2 * TicTacToe.HEIGHT / 3,
BOARD_WIDTH, 2 * TicTacToe.HEIGHT / 3);
// Vertical lines
g2d.drawLine(BOARD_WIDTH / 3, 0, BOARD_WIDTH / 3,
TicTacToe.HEIGHT);
g2d.drawLine(2 * BOARD_WIDTH / 3, 0, 2 * BOARD_WIDTH / 3,
TicTacToe.HEIGHT);
}
}
Main method:
SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
Board board = new Board();
board.setPreferredSize(new Dimension((int) (WIDTH * 0.7), HEIGHT));
board.setLayout(new GridLayout(3, 3));
board.addButtons();
GameOptions opt = new GameOptions();
opt.setPreferredSize(new Dimension((int) (WIDTH * 0.3), HEIGHT));
JFrame frame = new JFrame("Tic Tac Toe");
frame.setLayout(new FlowLayout());
frame.add(board);
frame.add(opt);
frame.pack();
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
frame.setVisible(true);
}
});
Your use of getX() and getY() on the button's drawing code is completely wrong and does not belong. These methods return the location of the button relative to its container, and so while this might work for a button located at the upper left, it will fail for anything else since you'll end up drawing somewhere far away from the button itself, and so many of your drawings will never show.
You'd be much better off not extending JButton but instead simply swapping ImageIcons that display what you want drawn on the JButton. This is much simpler and much more idiot-proof. You set the button's icon by calling .setIcon(myImageIcon) on it, passing in the icon of choice.
But if you absolutely wanted to draw on the button, you'd do so without using getX() or getY(). You'd also probably want to use a JToggleButton as the parent class, since you're toggling state. For example, my MCVE:

Images do not appear correctly on MouseEvent in swing

I have a 3x3 check board-like image rendered on a JPanel which is added onto a JFrame. Then I have 9 more JPanels (1 on top of each square) and on click something needs to be drawn on the corresponding square. My problem is that it only works for the top-left square. The rest of the drawings seem to be drawn below the checkboard image. So if I comment out the part that loads the checkboard image,and click as if they were there then the drawings appear correctly. I get the same result with a layered pane. Absolute positioning is used and the coordinates seem to be correct since if I remove the checkboard image then the drawings appear where they should and the drawings do not occupy more than a square.
My code is structured as follows:
'main' class creates the frame and adds an instance of another class which extends JPanel and which also draws the checkboard image using paintComponent(Graphics g).
'main' class has also 9 instances added of a class that extends JPanel and draws something on a mouse click using paintComponent(Graphics g). Each instance is placed on top of a square
Please note that because I was going to do it with just Rectangles I named the second class Rectangles but it is rectangualar JPanels not java Rectangle instances
Code:
public class Main3
{
private JFrame frame=new JFrame("");
private Rectangles rect00=new Rectangles(0,0,129,129);
private Rectangles rect01=new Rectangles(136,0,129,129);
private Rectangles rect02=new Rectangles(268,0,129,129);
private Rectangles rect10=new Rectangles(0,136,129,129);

1) You dont honor the components paint chain.
As per java docs for paintComponent(Graphics g):
 Further, if you do not invoker super's implementation you must honour
the opaque property, that is if this component is opaque, you must
completely fill in the background in a non-opaque color. If you do not
honor the opaque property you will likely see visual artifacts.
2) super.paintComponent would in most cases be the first call in the method.
3) But there is more, your cast to Graphics2D twice, that should not be done:
Graphics2D g2 = (Graphics2D) g;
...
Graphics2D g3=(Graphics2D)g;
omit the g3 its not needed you already have casted to a Graphics2D object
4) Another problem lies here in sub class. You do this in your main code:
inter.add(rect00);
inter.add(rect01);
...
but in inter which is your variable name for the instance of sub class you only have:
#Override
protected void paintComponent(Graphics g)
{
super.paintComponent(g);
g.drawImage(image, 0, 0, null);
}
Thus it will only draw a single image no matter how many rectangles you add!
Also dont do
g2.drawLine(Posx, Posy, Posx + width, Posy + height); rather
g2.drawLine(0, 0, Posx + width, Posy + height); as the JPanel has been added at co-ordinates x and y on its container, when you draw on the JPanel we want to start at the top left i.e 0,0, changing the value would move the image further down on its conatiner

A few other pointers:
Dont use Absolute/Null layout. A GridLayout or GridBagLayout would suit your needs fine. (see here for more.)
Dont do JFrame#setSize(...); rather use Correct LayoutManager and call pack() on JFrame before setting it visible.
Dont call setSize on your Rectangles instances, simply override getPreferredSize like you did with sub panel??
No need for implementing MouseListener, just use MouseAdapter thus giving you the freedom to choose which methods to override and not just override all.
Have a read on Concurrency in Swing especailly Event-Dispatch-Thread
