Hi,

I'm trying to draw object on a screen in an infinite loop, which I have completed, however when they redraw, the original image still appears, is there anyway to clear screen of the original image and randomize them with out clearing the whole screen but rather just the object itself?

Also i am using a Java Applet with java.applet.*;

Thanks

It depends on what you mean by "screen" for a start. And then it depends on how you "draw" those objects.

A small executable code sample would clear up a lot of mysteries. Read our SSCCE link for hints on how to produce one.

[/code]

These are the lines to import and draw one image.

One of the Cs in SSCCE stands for complete.

I'm a bit surprised that you managed to complete an infinite loop.

Honestly wasn't that hard, the code itself is a bit more complicated than that, but thats the jist of it all.

Okay, then. If you still have a problem then let us know, otherwise is it okay to mark this topic as resolved?
