Graphics
abstract public class Graphics (Code)
The Graphics class is the abstract base class for all graphics contexts that allow an application to draw onto components that are realized on various devices, as well as onto off-screen images.

A Graphics object encapsulates state information needed for the basic rendering operations that Java supports. This state information includes the following properties:

  • The Component object on which to draw.
  • A translation origin for rendering and clipping coordinates.
  • The current clip.
  • The current color.
  • The current font.
  • The current logical pixel operation function (XOR or Paint).
  • The current XOR alternation color (see setXORMode).

Coordinates are infinitely thin and lie between the pixels of the output device. Operations which draw the outline of a figure operate by traversing an infinitely thin path between pixels with a pixel-sized pen that hangs down and to the right of the anchor point on the path. Operations which fill a figure operate by filling the interior of that infinitely thin path. Operations which render horizontal text render the ascending portion of character glyphs entirely above the baseline coordinate.

The graphics pen hangs down and to the right from the path it traverses. This has the following implications:

  • If you draw a figure that covers a given rectangle, that figure occupies one extra row of pixels on the right and bottom edges as compared to filling a figure that is bounded by that same rectangle.
  • If you draw a horizontal line along the same y coordinate as the baseline of a line of text, that line is drawn entirely below the text, except for any descenders.

All coordinates which appear as arguments to the methods of this Graphics object are considered relative to the translation origin of this Graphics object prior to the invocation of the method. All rendering operations modify only pixels which lie within the area bounded by both the current clip of the graphics context and the extents of the component used to create the Graphics object. All drawing or writing is done in the current color, using the current paint mode, and in the current font.

Compatibility

The Graphics class is compatible with the graphics class in PersonalJava. It has modified behavior from JDK1.1.8, in that its setXorMode may not have any effect.

Constructor Detail
Graphics
protected Graphics()(Code)
Constructs a new Graphics object. This constructor is the default contructor for a graphics context.

Since Graphics is an abstract class, applications cannot call this constructor directly. Graphics contexts are obtained from other graphics contexts or are created by calling getGraphics on a component.
See Also:   java.awt.Graphics.create
See Also:   java.awt.Component.getGraphics
since:
   JDK1.0





Method Detail
clearRect
abstract public void clearRect(int x, int y, int width, int height)(Code)
Clears the specified rectangle by filling it with the background color of the current drawing surface. This operation does not use the current paint mode.

Beginning with Java 1.1, the background color of offscreen images may be system dependent. Applications should use setColor followed by fillRect to ensure that an offscreen image is cleared to a specific color.
Parameters:
  x - the x coordinate of the rectangle to clear.
Parameters:
  y - the y coordinate of the rectangle to clear.
Parameters:
  width - the width of the rectangle to clear.
Parameters:
  height - the height of the rectangle to clear.
See Also:   java.awt.Graphics.fillRect(intintintint)
See Also:   java.awt.Graphics.drawRect
See Also:   java.awt.Graphics.setColor(java.awt.Color)
See Also:   java.awt.Graphics.setPaintMode
See Also:   java.awt.Graphics.setXORMode(java.awt.Color)
since:
   JDK1.0




clipRect
abstract public void clipRect(int x, int y, int width, int height)(Code)
Intersects the current clip with the specified rectangle. The resulting clipping area is the intersection of the current clipping area and the specified rectangle. This method can only be used to make the current clip smaller. To set the current clip larger, use any of the setClip methods. Rendering operations have no effect outside of the clipping area.
Parameters:
  x - the x coordinate of the rectangle to intersect the clip with
Parameters:
  y - the y coordinate of the rectangle to intersect the clip with
Parameters:
  width - the width of the rectangle to intersect the clip with
Parameters:
  height - the height of the rectangle to intersect the clip with
See Also:   Graphics.setClip(int,int,int,int)
See Also:   Graphics.setClip(Shape)



copyArea
abstract public void copyArea(int x, int y, int width, int height, int dx, int dy)(Code)
Copies an area of the component by a distance specified by dx and dy. From the point specified by x and y, this method copies downwards and to the right. To copy an area of the component to the left or upwards, specify a negative value for dx or dy. If a portion of the source rectangle lies outside the bounds of the component, or is obscured by another window or component, copyArea will be unable to copy the associated pixels. The area that is omitted can be refreshed by calling the component's paint method.
Parameters:
  x - the x coordinate of the source rectangle.
Parameters:
  y - the y coordinate of the source rectangle.
Parameters:
  width - the width of the source rectangle.
Parameters:
  height - the height of the source rectangle.
Parameters:
  dx - the horizontal distance to copy the pixels.
Parameters:
  dy - the vertical distance to copy the pixels.
since:
   JDK1.0



create
abstract public Graphics create()(Code)
Creates a new Graphics object that is a copy of this Graphics object. a new graphics context that is a copy of this graphics context.
since:
   JDK1.0



create
public Graphics create(int x, int y, int width, int height)(Code)
Creates a new Graphics object based on this Graphics object, but with a new translation and clip area. The new Graphics object has its origin translated to the specified point (xy). Its clip area is determined by the intersection of the original clip area with the specified rectangle. The arguments are all interpreted in the coordinate system of the original Graphics object. The new graphics context is identical to the original, except in two respects:

  • The new graphics context is translated by (xy). That is to say, the point (00) in the new graphics context is the same as (xy) in the original graphics context.
  • The new graphics context has an additional clipping rectangle, in addition to whatever (translated) clipping rectangle it inherited from the original graphics context. The origin of the new clipping rectangle is at (00), and its size is specified by the width and height arguments.


Parameters:
  x - the x coordinate.
Parameters:
  y - the y coordinate.
Parameters:
  width - the width of the clipping rectangle.
Parameters:
  height - the height of the clipping rectangle. a new graphics context.
See Also:   java.awt.Graphics.translate
See Also:   java.awt.Graphics.clipRect
since:
   JDK1.0




dispose
abstract public void dispose()(Code)
Disposes of this graphics context and releases any system resources that it is using. A Graphics object cannot be used after disposehas been called.

When a Java program runs, a large number of Graphics objects can be created within a short time frame. Although the finalization process of the garbage collector also disposes of the same system resources, it is preferable to manually free the associated resources by calling this method rather than to rely on a finalization process which may not run to completion for a long period of time.

Graphics objects which are provided as arguments to the paint and update methods of components are automatically released by the system when those methods return. For efficiency, programmers should call dispose when finished using a Graphics object only if it was created directly from a component or another Graphics object.

draw3DRect
public void draw3DRect(int x, int y, int width, int height, boolean raised)(Code)
Draws a 3-D highlighted outline of the specified rectangle. The edges of the rectangle are highlighted so that they appear to be beveled and lit from the upper left corner.

The colors used for the highlighting effect are determined based on the current color. The resulting rectangle covers an area that is width + 1 pixels wide by height + 1 pixels tall.
Parameters:
  x - the x coordinate of the rectangle to be drawn.
Parameters:
  y - the y coordinate of the rectangle to be drawn.
Parameters:
  width - the width of the rectangle to be drawn.

since:
   JDK1.0




drawArc
abstract public void drawArc(int x, int y, int width, int height, int startAngle, int arcAngle)(Code)
Draws the outline of a circular or elliptical arc covering the specified rectangle.

The resulting arc begins at startAngle and extends for arcAngle degrees, using the current color. Angles are interpreted such that 0 degrees is at the 3 o'clock position. A positive value indicates a counter-clockwise rotation while a negative value indicates a clockwise rotation.

The center of the arc is the center of the rectangle whose origin is (xy) and whose size is specified by the width and height arguments.

The resulting arc covers an area width + 1 pixels wide by height + 1 pixels tall.

drawImage
abstract public boolean drawImage(Image img, int x, int y, ImageObserver observer)(Code)
Draws as much of the specified image as is currently available. The image is drawn with its top-left corner at (xy) in this graphics context's coordinate space. Transparent pixels in the image do not affect whatever pixels are already there.

This method returns immediately in all cases, even if the complete image has not yet been loaded, and it has not been dithered and converted for the current output device.

If the image has not yet been completely loaded, then drawImage returns false. As more of the image becomes available, the process that draws the image notifies the specified image observer.
Parameters:
  img - the specified image to be drawn.
Parameters:
  x - the x coordinate.
Parameters:
  y - the y coordinate.
Parameters:
  observer - object to be notified as more of the image is converted.

drawImage
abstract public boolean drawImage(Image img, int x, int y, int width, int height, ImageObserver observer)(Code)
Draws as much of the specified image as has already been scaled to fit inside the specified rectangle.

The image is drawn inside the specified rectangle of this graphics context's coordinate space, and is scaled if necessary. Transparent pixels do not affect whatever pixels are already there.

This method returns immediately in all cases, even if the entire image has not yet been scaled, dithered, and converted for the current output device. If the current output representation is not yet complete, then drawImage returns false. As more of the image becomes available, the process that draws the image notifies the image observer by calling its imageUpdate method.

A scaled version of an image will not necessarily be available immediately just because an unscaled version of the image has been constructed for this output device. Each size of the image may be cached separately and generated from the original data in a separate image production sequence.
Parameters:
  img - the specified image to be drawn.
Parameters:
  x - the x coordinate.
Parameters:
  y - the y coordinate.
Parameters:
  width - the width of the rectangle.
Parameters:
  height - the height of the rectangle.
Parameters:
  observer - object to be notified as more of the image is converted.

drawImage
abstract public boolean drawImage(Image img, int x, int y, Color bgcolor, ImageObserver observer)(Code)
Draws as much of the specified image as is currently available. The image is drawn with its top-left corner at (xy) in this graphics context's coordinate space. Transparent pixels are drawn in the specified background color.

This operation is equivalent to filling a rectangle of the width and height of the specified image with the given color and then drawing the image on top of it, but possibly more efficient.

This method returns immediately in all cases, even if the complete image has not yet been loaded, and it has not been dithered and converted for the current output device.

If the image has not yet been completely loaded, then drawImage returns false. As more of the image becomes available, the process that draws the image notifies the specified image observer.
Parameters:
  img - the specified image to be drawn.
Parameters:
  x - the x coordinate.
Parameters:
  y - the y coordinate.
Parameters:
  bgcolor - the background color to paint under thenon-opaque portions of the image.
Parameters:
  observer - object to be notified as more of the image is converted.

drawImage
abstract public boolean drawImage(Image img, int x, int y, int width, int height, Color bgcolor, ImageObserver observer)(Code)
Draws as much of the specified image as has already been scaled to fit inside the specified rectangle.

The image is drawn inside the specified rectangle of this graphics context's coordinate space, and is scaled if necessary. Transparent pixels are drawn in the specified background color. This operation is equivalent to filling a rectangle of the width and height of the specified image with the given color and then drawing the image on top of it, but possibly more efficient.

This method returns immediately in all cases, even if the entire image has not yet been scaled, dithered, and converted for the current output device. If the current output representation is not yet complete then drawImage returns false. As more of the image becomes available, the process that draws the image notifies the specified image observer.

A scaled version of an image will not necessarily be available immediately just because an unscaled version of the image has been constructed for this output device. Each size of the image may be cached separately and generated from the original data in a separate image production sequence.
Parameters:
  img - the specified image to be drawn.
Parameters:
  x - the x coordinate.
Parameters:
  y - the y coordinate.
Parameters:
  width - the width of the rectangle.

drawImage
abstract public boolean drawImage(Image img, int dx1, int dy1, int dx2, int dy2, int sx1, int sy1, int sx2, int sy2, ImageObserver observer)(Code)
Draws as much of the specified area of the specified image as is currently available, scaling it on the fly to fit inside the specified area of the destination drawable surface. Transparent pixels do not affect whatever pixels are already there.

This method returns immediately in all cases, even if the image area to be drawn has not yet been scaled, dithered, and converted for the current output device. If the current output representation is not yet complete then drawImage returns false. As more of the image becomes available, the process that draws the image notifies the specified image observer.

This method always uses the unscaled version of the image to render the scaled rectangle and performs the required scaling on the fly. It does not use a cached, scaled version of the image for this operation. Scaling of the image from source to destination is performed such that the first coordinate of the source rectangle is mapped to the first coordinate of the destination rectangle, and the second source coordinate is mapped to the second destination coordinate. The subimage is scaled and flipped as needed to preserve those mappings.
Parameters:
  img - the specified image to be drawn
Parameters:
  dx1 - the x coordinate of the first corner of thedestination rectangle.
Parameters:
  dy1 - the y coordinate of the first corner of thedestination rectangle.
Parameters:
  dx2 - the x coordinate of the second corner of thedestination rectangle.
Parameters:
  dy2 - the y coordinate of the second corner of thedestination rectangle.
Parameters:
  sx1 - the x coordinate of the first corner of thesource rectangle.
Parameters:
  sy1 - the y coordinate of the first corner of thesource rectangle.
Parameters:
  sx2 - the x coordinate of the second corner of thesource rectangle.

drawImage
abstract public boolean drawImage(Image img, int dx1, int dy1, int dx2, int dy2, int sx1, int sy1, int sx2, int sy2, Color bgcolor, ImageObserver observer)(Code)
Draws as much of the specified area of the specified image as is currently available, scaling it on the fly to fit inside the specified area of the destination drawable surface.

Transparent pixels are drawn in the specified background color. This operation is equivalent to filling a rectangle of the width and height of the specified image with the given color and then drawing the image on top of it, but possibly more efficient.

This method returns immediately in all cases, even if the image area to be drawn has not yet been scaled, dithered, and converted for the current output device. If the current output representation is not yet complete then drawImage returns false. As more of the image becomes available, the process that draws the image notifies the specified image observer.

This method always uses the unscaled version of the image to render the scaled rectangle and performs the required scaling on the fly. It does not use a cached, scaled version of the image for this operation. Scaling of the image from source to destination is performed such that the first coordinate of the source rectangle is mapped to the first coordinate of the destination rectangle, and the second source coordinate is mapped to the second destination coordinate. The subimage is scaled and flipped as needed to preserve those mappings.
