drawing a cube and moving it

[yelimeli]

Hey

I'm trying to write a code that draws a cube and then when i click a button nmaed left the cube should move left and when i click a button named right it should move right. I have used drawline and drawsquare to draw cube and then to move i can use repaint() method to modify the x & y points but there are so many points, can anybody please give me any idea

Thanks
Srinivas

Dear Srinivas,

Draw the cube into a memory Image object then each time it moves you paint a rectangle in the background color over the old location then paint the image in the new location.


Good luck

Another idea is to draw the cube on a Panel (or a JLabel, or something else) and then just move the Panel with

panel.setLocation(...);
