Regarding Borders..

[teeyes prakash]

I have just started Applets. Kindly let me know if this option is available.
While using the fillRect or drawRect, I need to have the recetangle filled with one color with the border in a different color. Also is there any way of increasing or decreasing the thickness of the Border.
Plz let me know.

make an abject of rectangle & set its properties & its colors what ever u want
then on any event which ever u want draw it on the applet
then call the repaint method....
now ur applet is running with changed appearance...
tell if again u come up with more problems...
bye

Here is one simple example:

import java.applet.*;
import java.awt.*;
public class Rect extends Applet
{
    Color lineColor;
    Color fillColor;
    int width;
    int height;
    public void init()
    {
        lineColor = Color.red;
        fillColor = Color.yellow;
        width = 100;
        height = 50;
    }
    public void paint(Graphics g)
    {
        g.setColor(fillColor);
        g.fillRect(10, 10, width, height);
        g.setColor(lineColor);
        g.drawRect(10, 10, width, height);
    }
}

Hope this helps.
