Hi, im trying to move an object that moves only with the user input. For example if i type in 45, it will move 45 spaces. How would I go about doing that?

Thank you for your time.

Simple way: create the object as a JLabel with an ImageIcon. Put it in a JFrame. In response to keyboard input use the JLabel's setLocation method to move it.
