i have a JFrame with a border layout with a JPanel containing JRadioButtons in north and a class DrawingArea that extends JPanel in the center. DrawingArea implements MouseListener. mouseReleased() has two lines of code one of which calls repaint(). for some reason it causes a second row of RadioButtons to appear below the first ones. when i override paintComponent() it also creates a second border around the DrawingArea. if i overide paint() instead it erases the original border. it only does this the first time after that it just draws rectangles like it is supposed to. i dont have a clue how this is happening. i implemented all the methods of Mouse Listener and i even implemeted MouseMotionListener also to no avail. here is some of the code.
in Jframe
in DrawingArea
