applet

Sep 21st, 2009

Hi,

I am trying to implement an applet.
The idea is to create the applet, then connect places where I single-click with the mouse with black lines until we give a double-click.
With a double-click I should clear the applet.

To clear the applet I am trying to set the color to white and re-draw all the lines so that I have a complete white screen.

The complete code is in attach.
Here is the specific code for the single/double clicks event:

    public boolean mouseDown(Event evt, int x, int y)
    {
        // initialization
        Graphics g = getGraphics();
 
        // checks number of clicks
        if (m_nNumMouseClicks < m_nMAXLOCS)
        {
            // checks for double click action
            if ((lastX==x) && (lastY==y) && ((evt.when-timeMouseDown) < dClkRes))
            {
                System.out.println("double click: CLEAR SCREEN!!!");
 
                // set color a white
                g.setColor(Color.WHITE);
 
                // print the lines in white to hide the black lines
                for (int i = 0; i < m_nNumMouseClicks - 1; i++)
                {

                repaint();   
            }

I appreciate your help, cheers,

Hi again,

I have managed to solve the issue by creating a new field to save the actual color as you can see in the code:

    {

        if (m_nNumMouseClicks < m_nMAXLOCS)

            if ((lastX==x) && (lastY==y) && ((evt.when-timeMouseDown) < dClkRes))
            {
                System.out.println("double click: CLEAR SCREEN!!!");
 
                // set color to RED
                actual = Color.ORANGE;

Re: applet

Hello,

The idea of this code is to save the clicked-mouse points and creating a line between the last 2 clicked points. Whenever a double-click the screen should be cleared.
This is all working as it should be, however, when running the program in NetBeans I am receiving this message in the debugger console:

Could yo please give me a hand understanding what's wrong?
I am also attaching the code.
