Graphics Object not displaying to screen - java

So the answer to this might be completely obvious, but I just can't see it. Why is my Graphics object not displaying what I tell it to? I'm fairly certain I'm honoring Swing concurrency and such but perhaps not. Here's my JPanel code:
package com.kraken.towerdefense.graphics;
import com.kraken.towerdefense.TowerDefense;
import com.kraken.towerdefense.listener.KeyHandler;
import com.kraken.towerdefense.listener.MouseMotionHandler;
import com.kraken.towerdefense.scene.Scene;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.geom.RoundRectangle2D;
public class Screen extends JPanel implements Runnable {
Thread thread = new Thread(this);
private int FPS = 0;
public Scene scene;
TowerDefense tD;
private boolean running = false;
public RoundRectangle2D.Float playGame, quitGame;
public boolean playGameHighlighted, quitGameHighlighted;
#Override
public void run() {
long lastFrame = System.currentTimeMillis();
int frames = 0;
running = true;
while (running) {
repaint();
frames++;
if (System.currentTimeMillis() - 1000 >= lastFrame) {
FPS = frames;
frames = 0;
lastFrame = System.currentTimeMillis();
}
}
System.exit(0);
}
public Screen(TowerDefense tD) {
thread.start();
addKeyListener(new KeyHandler(this));
addMouseMotionListener(new MouseMotionHandler(this));
this.tD = tD;
scene = Scene.MENU;
}
#Override
public void paintComponent(Graphics g2) {
super.paintComponent(g2);
playGame = new RoundRectangle2D.Float((getWidth() / 2) - 200, (getHeight() / 2) - 100, 400, 100, 10, 10);
quitGame = new RoundRectangle2D.Float((getWidth() / 2) - 200, (getHeight() / 2) + 20, 400, 100, 10, 10);
Graphics2D g = (Graphics2D) g2.create();
g.setRenderingHint(RenderingHints.KEY_ANTIALIASING, RenderingHints.VALUE_ANTIALIAS_ON);
g.clearRect(0, 0, getWidth(), getHeight());
g.drawString("FPS: " + FPS, 10, 10);
if (scene == Scene.MENU) {
if (playGameHighlighted) {
g.setColor(new Color(255, 152, 56));
} else {
g.setColor(new Color(4, 47, 61));
}
g.fill(playGame);
if (quitGameHighlighted) {
g.setColor(new Color(255, 152, 56));
} else {
g.setColor(new Color(4, 47, 61));
}
g.fill(quitGame);
g.setColor(Color.WHITE);
g.setFont(new Font("Gisha", Font.PLAIN, 20));
g.drawString("Play", (getWidth() / 2) - (g.getFontMetrics().stringWidth("Play") / 2), (getHeight() / 2) - 45);
g.drawString("Quit", (getWidth() / 2) - (g.getFontMetrics().stringWidth("Quit") / 2), (getHeight() / 2) + 75);
}
}
public class KeyTyped {
public void keyESC() {
running = false;
}
}
}
And here's my Scene Enum:
package com.kraken.towerdefense.scene;
public enum Scene {
MENU,
GAME
}
I'm pretty sure I don't need to supply the JFrame code, but if necessary I will. Any other solutions to problems in my code you could give would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
EDIT 1
Here's my MouseMotionListener class:
package com.kraken.towerdefense.listener;
import com.kraken.towerdefense.graphics.Screen;
import java.awt.event.MouseEvent;
import java.awt.event.MouseMotionListener;
public class MouseMotionHandler implements MouseMotionListener {
Screen screen;
public MouseMotionHandler(Screen screen) {
this.screen = screen;
}
#Override
public void mouseDragged(MouseEvent e) {
}
#Override
public void mouseMoved(MouseEvent e) {
if (screen.playGame.contains(e.getPoint())) {
screen.playGameHighlighted = true;
} else {
screen.playGameHighlighted = false;
}
if (screen.quitGame.contains(e.getPoint())) {
screen.quitGameHighlighted = true;
} else {
screen.playGameHighlighted = false;
}
}
}
Here's my JFrame code:
package com.kraken.towerdefense;
import com.kraken.towerdefense.graphics.Screen;
import javax.swing.*;
public class TowerDefense extends JFrame {
public static void main(String[] args) {
new TowerDefense();
}
public TowerDefense() {
setExtendedState(MAXIMIZED_BOTH);
setUndecorated(true);
setTitle("Tower Defense");
setDefaultCloseOperation(EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
setResizable(false);
Screen screen = new Screen(this);
this.add(screen);
setVisible(true);
}
}
And here's my KeyListener code:
package com.kraken.towerdefense.listener;
import com.kraken.towerdefense.graphics.Screen;
import java.awt.event.KeyEvent;
import java.awt.event.KeyListener;
public class KeyHandler implements KeyListener {
private Screen screen;
private Screen.KeyTyped keyTyped;
public KeyHandler(Screen screen) {
this.screen = screen;
keyTyped = screen.new KeyTyped();
}
#Override
public void keyTyped(KeyEvent e) {
}
#Override
public void keyPressed(KeyEvent e) {
if (e.getKeyCode() == 27) {
keyTyped.keyESC();
}
}
#Override
public void keyReleased(KeyEvent e) {
}
}
So those are all my classes, I hope that helps

So, I gutted your code to make it run and was capable of displaying...
import java.awt.Color;
import java.awt.EventQueue;
import java.awt.Graphics;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
import javax.swing.UIManager;
import javax.swing.UnsupportedLookAndFeelException;
public class GraphicsTest {
public static void main(String[] args) {
new GraphicsTest();
}
public GraphicsTest() {
EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
try {
UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName());
} catch (ClassNotFoundException | InstantiationException | IllegalAccessException | UnsupportedLookAndFeelException ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
JFrame frame = new JFrame("Testing");
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
frame.add(new Screen());
frame.pack();
frame.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
frame.setVisible(true);
}
});
}
public enum Scene {
MENU,
GAME
}
public class Screen extends JPanel implements Runnable {
Thread thread = new Thread(this);
private int FPS = 0;
public Scene scene;
private boolean running = false;
#Override
public void run() {
long lastFrame = System.currentTimeMillis();
int frames = 0;
running = true;
scene = Scene.MENU;
while (running) {
repaint();
frames++;
if (System.currentTimeMillis() - 1000 >= lastFrame) {
FPS = frames;
frames = 0;
lastFrame = System.currentTimeMillis();
}
}
System.exit(0);
}
public Screen() {
thread.start();
}
#Override
public void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
super.paintComponent(g);
g.clearRect(0, 0, getWidth(), getHeight());
g.drawString("FPS: " + FPS, 10, 10);
if (scene == Scene.MENU) {
g.setColor(Color.BLACK);
g.fillRoundRect((getWidth() / 2) - 100, (getHeight() / 2) - 50, 200, 100, 25, 25);
}
}
}
}
So that suggests that the problem you're describing is some where else.
To me this;
g.clearRect(0, 0, tD.getWidth(), tD.getHeight());
looks suspicious, as you're relying on the TowerDefense properties when you should relying on the components own width/height properties (apart from clearRect actually not been required in this context).
This further makes me suspicious that you're not actually adding the Screen component to anything that is displayable
The other possible problem is you're making use of an appropriate layout manager, but since your Screen class doesn't supply any preferredSize hints, this would be an additional issue which you're not demonstrating

GUI doesn't respond to mouse click and drag while running from another class

I have 2 classes: TestingPanel and SnipIt.
SnipIt is used for selecting an area on the screen.
TestingPanel is the main frame, containing a button to run method Snip() and receiving the return values.
If I test the SnipIt class separately, it works. But if I create a SnipIt object and run method Snip() from TestingPanel class, it doesn't work. The GUI just freezes and doesn't respond to mouse click or drag event. I guess something block the thread handle the mouse events but I'm not sure.
I have been stuck for couple hours and still don't know what caused the issue. Please help.

You're running the Snipit application in a background thread and then freezing that thread with Thread.sleep and a while true block, something guaranteed to freeze the GUI. Read Lesson: Concurrency in Swing and then be sure to always run Swing applications on the single Swing event thread, and do any long running or sleeping code in a background thread.
Possible solutions to your issue:
Make the Snipit window an undecorated modal dialog. This way program flow from the calling code stops when the dialog is visible and resumes when no longer visible.
Or Make the Snipit window JFrame an instance field of the class and allow outside classes to add listeners to it so that they will be notified when it closes.

import java.awt.BorderLayout;

A side issue unrelated to your initial problem is your use of null layougs. While null layouts and setBounds() might seem to Swing newbies like the easiest and best way to create complex GUI's, the more Swing GUI'S you create the more serious difficulties you will run into when using them. They won't resize your components when the GUI resizes, they are a royal witch to enhance or maintain, they fail completely when placed in scrollpanes, they look gawd-awful when viewed on all platforms or screen resolutions that are different from the original one.

Continuous animation using java applets

I want to create a continuous animation of a moving truck in java applets. In this the truck should reappear from the other side as soon as it disappears.
I tried using one truck but then it appears on the other side only after completely disappearing from one side. Hence, I used two.
Following is my code:
public class prc1 extends Applet implements Runnable{
Thread t;
int x=0;
int y=0;
int i;
public void start(){
t = new Thread(this);
t.start();
}
public void paint(Graphics g){
g.setColor(Color.gray);
g.fillRect(x,10,70,45);
g.setColor(Color.yellow);
g.fillRoundRect(50+x,15,35,35,10,10);
g.setColor(Color.black);
g.fillArc(5+x,50,10,10,0,360);
g.fillArc(55+x,50,10,10,0,360);
g.setColor(Color.gray);
g.fillRect(y,10,70,45);
g.setColor(Color.yellow);
g.fillRoundRect(50+y,15,35,35,10,10);
g.setColor(Color.black);
g.fillArc(5+y,50,10,10,0,360);
g.fillArc(55+y,50,10,10,0,360);
}
public void run(){
try{
y=-90;
x=0;
for(; ;){
Thread.sleep(100);
repaint();
run();
x=x+5;
if(x==400){
for(; ;){
y=y+5;
Thread.sleep(100);
repaint();
run();
x=x-5;
if(x==0){
y=-90;
break;
}
}
}
}
}catch(InterruptedException e){ }
}
}
Now the problem is that the truck does not move at all.
So the basic idea is, you need to determine when the truck begins to leave the viewable area and then calculate the amount of "overflow", which would then allow you to paint the truck a second time at a new position subtracted from the overflow.
I've broken you code down so the Truck is it's own class, this makes it easier to deal with and allows a little more control over the painting process.

Another option might be to have more than one instance of truck, so as the second one begins to leave the viewable you could create another one

Can't repaint my JFrame/JPanel

I have created a program that just moves a ball across a screen. I used to have it all in one class, but decided that it looked too messy so I split it up into three different classes: Main... initializes everything, Game... which paints everything and is a JPanel, and AL which is a KeyListener (which is also where the problem is). The problem is that I can't get the program to repaint from my AL class no matter what I try to pass into it. Can anyone help with this? Here are my three classes:
import java.awt.Color;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
public class Main {
static Game game;
static JFrame frame;
public static void main(String[] args) {
game = new Game();
frame = new JFrame();
frame.getContentPane().add(game);
frame.addKeyListener(new AL(game, frame));
frame.setTitle("Game");
frame.setSize(500, 500);
frame.setResizable(true);
frame.setVisible(true);
frame.setBackground(Color.BLACK);
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
}
}

Let's start with the obvious....
This is problematic...
#Override
public void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
g.setColor(Color.GREEN);
g.fillOval(x, y, 15, 15);
}
#Override
public void paint(Graphics g) {
dbImage = createImage(getWidth(), getHeight());
dbg = dbImage.getGraphics();
paintComponent(dbg);
g.drawImage(dbImage, 0, 0, this);
}
There's no need to implement double buffering in Swing components, they already are. Also, you're breaking the painting contract, by not call the paint methods super methods
The whole thing should be...
#Override
protected void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
super.paintComponent(g);
g.setColor(Color.GREEN);
g.fillOval(x, y, 15, 15);
}
See Painting in AWT and Swing and Performing Custom Painting for more details
KeyListener is well known for been problematic. It will only raise key events if the component it registered to is focuable AND has keyboard focus. A JPanel by default, is not focusable. Before you run of and try and make it focusable (and get bitterly disappointed), you should be using the Key Bindings API instead, which was designed to over come the limitations of KeyListener

What this does is simply activates a flag when a key is pressed (and deactivates it when it's released), then in a Swing Timer, we check which keys are "active" and update the location of the ball.
What this does is, eliminates the key "stutter" which is caused by the OS when a key is first pressed and held. A delay is inserted between the first key and the repeated key events. Instead, we just turn the flag on and off as we like.
It also allows you to move in two directions at the same time (horizontally and vertically)

Jframe not repainting issue

I have a program which is simple in function. On start, it creates a random circle which it places in the window/frame. When that circle is clicked, it should dissappear, and spawn a new circle elsewhere. the issue is, my program does this, but you see all the past circles unless you minimize/reopen the window. I cannot get it to repaint without my help... and I do NOT know why. Here is my code.

Your code works perfectly fine for me, however...
Don't override paint of top level containers like JFrame, JFrame contains a JRootPane, which contains a contentPane and may also have a visible glassPane, all of which can overpaint what is painted within the paint method. As a general rule, you shouldn't extend from JFrame (or other top level containers), you are locking yourself into a single use case, reducing the re-usability of your component and you're not actually any new functionality to the class. Instead, use a JPanel and override it's paintComponent method
Call super.paint before doing any custom painting. If, however, you use a JPanel, call super.paintComponent. Painting is performed by a series of methods which are chained together to generate the final output. See Painting in AWT and Swing and Performing Custom Painting for more details
Consider using something like x = r.nextInt(this.getWidth() - 150) + 75; and y = r.nextInt(this.getWidth() - 150) + 75; instead of your while loops, I think you might find them safer to use
For example...
import java.awt.Color;
import java.awt.Dimension;
import java.awt.EventQueue;
import java.awt.Graphics;
import java.awt.Graphics2D;
import java.awt.event.MouseAdapter;
import java.awt.event.MouseEvent;
import java.awt.geom.Ellipse2D;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Random;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
import javax.swing.SwingUtilities;
import javax.swing.UIManager;
import javax.swing.UnsupportedLookAndFeelException;
public class Core {
public static void main(String args[]) {
EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
new Core();
}
});
}
public Core() {
EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
try {
UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName());
} catch (ClassNotFoundException | InstantiationException | IllegalAccessException | UnsupportedLookAndFeelException ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
JFrame frame = new JFrame("Testing");
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
frame.add(new CorePane());
frame.pack();
frame.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
frame.setVisible(true);
}
});
}
public class CorePane extends JPanel {
private ArrayList<Ellipse2D> list = new ArrayList<Ellipse2D>();
private Random r = new Random();
public Ellipse2D spawn() {
int x = r.nextInt(this.getWidth());
int y = r.nextInt(this.getHeight());
x = r.nextInt(this.getWidth() - 150) + 75;
y = r.nextInt(this.getWidth() - 150) + 75;
System.out.println("MAKING SHAPE at :" + x + " AND " + y);
return new Ellipse2D.Double(x, y, 75, 75);
}
public CorePane() {
addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter() {
public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent me) {
// Save the coordinates of the click lke this.
if (list.get(0).contains(me.getPoint())) {
list.clear();
list.add(spawn());
}
revalidate();
repaint();
}
});
}
#Override
public void invalidate() {
super.invalidate();
SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
if (list.isEmpty()) {
list.add(spawn());
}
}
});
}
#Override
public Dimension getPreferredSize() {
return new Dimension(500, 500);
}
#Override
protected void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
super.paintComponent(g);
Graphics2D g2d = (Graphics2D) g.create();
if (!list.isEmpty()) {
for (Ellipse2D ellipse : list) {
g2d.setColor(Color.red);
g2d.draw(ellipse);
}
}
g2d.dispose();
}
}
}
Or, based on what I believe you're trying to do, you could simply do something like...
public class CorePane extends JPanel {
private Random r = new Random();
private Ellipse2D ellipse;
public Ellipse2D spawn() {
int x = r.nextInt(this.getWidth());
int y = r.nextInt(this.getHeight());
x = r.nextInt(this.getWidth() - 150) + 75;
y = r.nextInt(this.getWidth() - 150) + 75;
System.out.println("MAKING SHAPE at :" + x + " AND " + y);
return new Ellipse2D.Double(x, y, 75, 75);
}
public CorePane() {
addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter() {
public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent me) {
if (ellipse != null && ellipse.contains(me.getPoint())) {
ellipse = spawn();
}
revalidate();
repaint();
}
});
}
#Override
public void invalidate() {
super.invalidate();
SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
spawn();
}
});
}
#Override
public Dimension getPreferredSize() {
return new Dimension(500, 500);
}
#Override
protected void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
super.paintComponent(g);
Graphics2D g2d = (Graphics2D) g.create();
if (ellipse != null) {
g2d.setColor(Color.red);
g2d.draw(ellipse);
}
g2d.dispose();
}
}

mouseMoved Event not working

I've been trying to work this code, it's like when you hover over the start button it should change its color to gray, but whenever i hover over it. nothing happens, can somebody tell me why? i didn't get any error and it seems like my mousemoved listener isn't recognized by the compiler, sorry for my english. I haven't finish it yet but here is the code:
class Contents extends JFrame implements Runnable {
private Image dbi;
private Graphics dbg;
private boolean isStarted, isHovered;
private int x,y,xDir,yDir,bx,by,timer,life,my,mx,mhx,mhy;
private Rectangle startgame = new Rectangle(80,100,150,40);
Contents()
{
super();
setVisible(true);
setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
if(isStarted)
setSize(600,600);
else
{
setSize(300,300);
setBackground(Color.BLUE);
}
setLocationRelativeTo(null);
isStarted = false;
isHovered = false;
addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter()
{
public void mousePressed(MouseEvent e)
{
mx = e.getX();
my = e.getY();
if(mx > startgame.x && mx < startgame.x+startgame.width &&
my > startgame.y && my < startgame.y+startgame.height)
{
isStarted = true;
}
}
public void mouseMoved(MouseEvent e)
{
mhx = e.getX();
mhy = e.getY();
if(mhx > startgame.x && mhx < startgame.x+startgame.width &&
mhy > startgame.y && mhy < startgame.y+startgame.height)
isHovered = true;
else
isHovered = false;
}
});
}
public void paint(Graphics g)
{
dbi = createImage(getWidth(), getHeight());
dbg = dbi.getGraphics();
draw(dbg);
g.drawImage(dbi,0,0,this);
repaint();
}
public void draw(Graphics g)
{
if(!isStarted)
{
if(!isHovered)
g.setColor(Color.GRAY);
else
g.setColor(Color.GREEN);
g.fillRect(startgame.x, startgame.y, startgame.width, startgame.height);
g.setFont(new Font("Serif",Font.BOLD,24));
g.setColor(Color.WHITE);
g.drawString("Start game", startgame.x+20, startgame.y+25);
g.drawString(String.format("hoverx: %d hovery: %d",mhx,mhy), 50,200);
}
else
{
}
}
public void run()
{
} }
public class Game {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
Contents c = new Contents();
} }
Just use Rectangle.contains(Point) to check if the point from the MouseEvent is inside the Rectangle. Here is an example
import java.awt.Color;
import java.awt.Dimension;
import java.awt.Graphics;
import java.awt.Graphics2D;
import java.awt.Point;
import java.awt.event.MouseEvent;
import java.awt.event.MouseMotionAdapter;
import java.awt.geom.Rectangle2D;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
import javax.swing.SwingUtilities;
public class PaintedButton extends JPanel {
private static final Color HOVER_COLOR = Color.BLUE;
private static final Color NON_HOVER_COLOR = Color.GREEN;
private static final Rectangle2D RECTANGLE = new Rectangle2D.Double(50, 50,
200, 100);
private Color color = NON_HOVER_COLOR;
public PaintedButton() {
addMouseMotionListener(new MouseMotionAdapter() {
public void mouseMoved(MouseEvent e) {
Point p = e.getPoint();
if (RECTANGLE.contains(p)) {
color = HOVER_COLOR;
} else {
color = NON_HOVER_COLOR;
}
repaint();
}
});
}
#Override
protected void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
super.paintComponent(g);
Graphics2D g2 = (Graphics2D) g;
g2.setPaint(color);
g2.fill(RECTANGLE);
}
#Override
public Dimension getPreferredSize() {
return new Dimension(300, 200);
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
JFrame frame = new JFrame();
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
frame.add(new PaintedButton());
frame.pack();
frame.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
frame.setVisible(true);
}
});
}
}
