I am trying to move the ball on the drawing panel. My code seems correct but when I run it, nothing is happening.
Can anyone please tell me what I am doing wrong?

honestly, you will have to develop some debugging skills.

I pointed you to the empty method move(), so you added some code to move() which included this line:
this.setLocation(nextX, nextY);

now take a look at setLocation() - what do you expect it to do?

 
Don't get me started about those stupid light bulbs.
