Swing/AWT/SWT :: Double Drawing Pixels When Manipulating DataBuffer Of BufferedImage
Feb 9, 2014
I've been working my way through a tutorial to build a simple 2D tile-based engine that also allows the code to manipulate the colour of pixels on the screen based on a monochrome map read from a file. I've got the code right line for line, but I seem to have a bug when it comes to draw to the screen! At regular intervals, despite what is held in the pixel array of ints (which I have confirmed to be correct when debugging), I get the same row of pixels being draw twice in a row. I figured there was some loop issue somewhere, but after attempting to debug this for some time, I haven't come up with the answer.
As implied by the title, when I am rendering images of the type "BufferedImage" unto a Swing application, the images' pixels are not consistent in size. Some might be larger than other, and some might be smaller than other.
Here is a screenshot of what I am talking about (you might need to zoom in a bit because the image is so small): [URL] ....
And here is also some code for you. The images are actually from a sprite sheet, which I first load in its entirety and then split up in an array.
Java Code:
public static BufferedImage sprites[]; ... public void loadSprites(){ try{ BufferedImage bigImage = ImageIO.read(new File("SOURCE/BLA/BLA/THIS/IS/ACTUALLY/NOT/THE/REAL/SOURCE/IN/CASE/YOU'RE/WONDERING/I/JUST/DON'T/WANT/YOU/TO/FIND/ME/AND/RAPE/ME")); sprites = new BufferedImage[16 * 16];
I am struggling to make a double border which has rounded corners. The border should be 2 parallel lines.
I made something which looks almost good, but if you look closer there are a few wrong things.To achieve this, I made 2 paths, then painted them in 2 different colours.
The main problem is painting with AA, because the colours overlap and are affected.
I think it would be smoother to paint a single path using 2 colours.
For the first problem, I think some kind of a stroke would be enough. But, if I build a stroke, it's almost same thing like drawing the path twice, like I did before. Anyway i think that would fix AA problem. But still, maybe I can achieve a smoother effect for the corners.
Question:Maybe something with a 2x1 Texture ? It's possible to achieve this ? I know I tried this before and when a curve was encountered the direction of the texture was wrong and looked messy.
PS: Ignore the blueish thing, it's a dragged component to activate the highlight border.
I've been trying to practice some active rendering involving triple buffering and manipulating a BufferedImage's raster. however, as I was watching some videos and reading articles, I noticed programers using this method invocation hierarchy to get the raster's pixels
I know what does the method getRaster() return, but I'm confused about the other ones especially the getDataBuffer(). What is a data buffer exactly, and what is happening when invoking those methods?
I have a question about the execution of code to draw images relative to code that comes after that. I don't normally do this sort of thinghere's the problematic code:
Where glb1 is a final reference to an object that holds common data for the game.while its x and y values say they are for text, they are also used for image placement (at least during this testing phase.)
gc1 is the "graphics context" of the canvas that the images are being drawn on.
The person who wrote this said, "When the attached code is run, the calls to TimeKeeper.pause(500), which in turn call Thread.sleep(500), are all executed in row, and then the results of drawing the image 10 times is displayed. (I know because some of the previous image pastes left some visual data behind.)"
I recall from reading about drawing graphics (a long time ago) that drawImage() could take time, but I don't know why the thread does not indeed sleep between calls to drawImage().
how to phrase the question. I created a small applet in java.. it allows me to move a toon around a blank applet window. I am using four gif files that have a walking animation in them. The issue i am having is after moving around the gif just flashes in and out really quickly.. when i start the program, moving up and down seems to be working perfectly fine, but the moment i move left or right it starts messing up for all directions. here is my code.
import javax.swing.*; import java.awt.*; import java.awt.event.*; public class CharactorMove extends JApplet implements KeyListener
I have to do an assigment using Swing, where I have to make a Board(extends JPanel) and add multiple instances of moving elements to it, with following requirements:
By adding a new object to the Board, the others must not slow down. Also the user interface must not be blocked by the moving objects. So, the movement of the objects must be handled in a separate thread.
and
The application must support adding lots of objects, so it is not okay if every object has its own thread, as this would take too many resources. Design the application in such a way that it uses a constant number of threads, meaning that the number of threads does not grow when adding more objects.
The question is:
How to do this thing with constant number of threads?
I am buildning a paint application in java, where the user can choose from a combobox wheather he/she wants to draw a rectangle or by free hand. The objects are stored in an arrayList. The user can also choose in the menubar to go back one step, which means to remove the last drawn item from the arrayList and then loop through the arraylist to draw the remaining objects.
It works fine with rectangles. When I create a rectangle it creates only one rectangle, which I add to the arrayList. My problem is with the free hand. When I draw by free hand (using mousePressed and mouseDragged) I add every "dot" of the line as an object. Which means that when I remove the last item in the arrayList it only removes one dot of the line, not the whole line.
I need to add the dots together as one line, but how can I do that?
if (e.getSource().equals(comboBox)) { JComboBox cb = (JComboBox)e.getSource(); if (cb.getSelectedItem().equals("Rectangle")) { this.addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter() {
I'm trying to make a simple program that will feature some graphics. It will have a JCombobox that the user selects to draw various shapes. I can't get the repaint function to work however.
So Ive got to make a turtle on an image draw a semicircle that starts at the top of a circle and goes down and to the left, changing colors halfway through. I've got everything down, I can draw the turtles and make them do straight lines. My problem is more math related. I need to use the equation of a circle, give it points, and figure out how to write that code in java.
We use the equation for a circle: (x - a)^2 + (y - b)^2 = r^2
I am trying to read Point objects from .drw file which contains endpoints of line segments, and draw lines making a square on panel when I run the program. This is what I have got so far. how to get the points using array for drawing ?
// inside the method to read points objects from .drw file try { fos = new FileInputStream("square.drw"); oos = new ObjectInputStream(fos); // creating an object of Point class endPoints = new Point[sampleSize];
I have strings in forms like s="(S (NP (DT This)) (VP (VBZ is) (NP (DT an) (JJ easy) (NN sentence))))"Programatically, I need to have words which end with ')' to be in an extra pair of brackets.. such that s = "(S (NP (DT (This))) (VP (VBZ (is)) (NP (DT (an)) (JJ (easy)) (NN (sentence)))))
Note that , words like "this" and "is" are now enclosed in brackets.I tried to create a program which would search for an alphabet followed by ')' and would put it in bracket... but then arrays can't have insertions in between.
I've got a .csv file with some text and numeric data. I've used BufferedReader to successfully print the data to the console. Now I need to perform mathematical operations on the numerical data. How do I access the data from the BufferedReader in my calculation methods?
What I would like to be able to do is create some loops to calculate totals for some of the elements, but I'm not sure how to access the data from other methods (and potentially classes?).
The # are delimiters between data items and each line has the call status as the last item. I need to know how I can display each persons information on the screen in a format such as:
Name Phone Calls Out Calls In Last Call
Marilyn Adams (823) 333-1109 0 0 01-01-2104 John Anderson (502) 555-9980 20 15 12-15-2013 Angelica Baker-Brown (859) 254-1109 11 5 02-11-2014
I have to use substring method to extract the phone number and add parentheses/dashes ect I also must have a while statement and a delimiter...
So Far my code looks like this Also I am in a beginners Java coding class....
import java.util.Scanner; import java.io.*; public class phonedata2_1 { public static void main (String[] args) throws IOException { String Phonefile, FirstName, LastName; Scanner PhoneScan, fileScan;
My latest issue was that I wanted to only get a double value into a JTable Cell.
So first I Overrode the getCellEditor(int row,int col) method of my JTable, so if I was in a cell i knew I needed a double value I returned my Editor.
My editor filters out anything but numbers. I also check to make sure we get one and only one decimal point.
Other solutions Ive seen use keyboard Listeners, but to me that doesn't work. What if the user cuts and pastes data? My solution handles that as well.
It doesn't handle if they try to cut and paste something like 1234abcd.bob.123.23 , this would result in 1234..123.23 pasted in. I'll handle faulty values on the getValue method of my AbstractTable, but as long as the user is using mostly valid data this works well.
public TableCellEditor getCellEditor(int row, int col) { if (row==TheRowWant && col==TheColumnI want) { return (new DefaultCellEditor(createDoubleTextField())); } } private JTextField createDoubleTextField() { final JTextField field = new JTextField();
In the book we made a GUI which has 2 buttons, a label and a panel (the panel is a subclass of JPanel). What the program does is the following: When I press one of the two buttons, in the panel there is a rectangle that changes its color. When I press the other button it has to change the text on the label. Now the problem is that when I start the program, the FIRST time I press the button on which the label must change, this also changes the color in the rectangle, which it should not (I also noticed that when i FIRST click the rectangle shifts a little bit to the left). After that the program works fine.
I have to write a program that asks the user to enter the name of their favorite city and use string variable to store the input. The program should display the following:
-The number of characters in the city name -The name of the city in all uppercase letters -The name of the city in all lowercase letters -The first character in the name of the city
However, I can't seem to get past the following errors;
Programming Challenge #12.java:37: error: variable cityFirstChar is already defined in method main(String[]) char cityFirstChar = city.charAt(0); ^ 8 errors[CODE ----jGRASP wedge2: exit code for process is 1. ----jGRASP: operation complete. [/CODE]
My code is as follows:
import java.util.Scanner;
/* * To change this license header, choose License Headers in Project Properties. * To change this template file, choose Tools | Templates * and open the template in the editor. */
I have run into a bit of a head scratcher, at least to me. I am building multiple rectangles using double precision. I had to switch from int to double due to another issue that requires decimal places. Now, my fillRect (last line in the code section I posted) is causing an error as it only wants to work with int.
public void draw(Graphics2D g2) { // check that sizes are above 0 if ((rectWidth <= 0) || (rectHeight <= 0))
But the error is giving me incompatible types. I would like to set all the pixels at a certain point up to the dimensions of my rectangle and so on. How would I do that?
So I'm trying to make a bar graph, each bar will increment the height by about 10 pixels. To do this, I'm making an array of bars. For some reason, using fillrect I cannot not increase the size more than 10 by 10, if I do, it will only show the 10 by 10. I want the bars to increase in height by 10 each time.
import java.awt.*; import java.awt.event.*; import javax.swing.*; import javax.swing.event.ChangeEvent; import javax.swing.event.ChangeListener; public class AssortedAssortmentsOfSorts extends JFrame
I am trying to process an array of pixels, checking each within a 5*5 mask. Ive declared my mask as a 2d array and get the pixel values within a nested for loop. Im getting an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException at the line:
mask[0][4] = dsIm.red[i-1][j+3];
Have I declared my mask wrong for a 5*5 mask. Is my logic wrong?
I won't give all the code, but basically Im trying to check all 25 pixel values within the mask:
int [][] mask = new int[5][5]; System.out.println("We are in the method just written"); //loop one loop for(int i = 1; i <= h-2; i++) { for(int j = 1; j<=w-2; j++)
What I am doing is loading a new image from resources in my project, so that I can get the size. Using this, I create a new BufferedImage with those dimensions. The following code is what I am using to take the original BufferedImage, and scale it.
Java Code:
public ImageIcon getBackImage(){ before = new BufferedImage((int)img.getWidth(null), (int)img.getHeight(null), BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_ARGB); int w = before.getWidth(); int h = before.getHeight(); try{ URL url = getClass().getResource("/Blue_Back.png"); before = ImageIO.read(url);
[Code] ......
The scaling seems to be working fine, but what I have noticed is a line of approximately 10 pixels at the top of the image. I took the original image and blew it up to ensure that I wasn't just enlarging undesired portions and this wasn't the case. I then tried to fetch a subImage of the BufferedImage, and that also left the padding at the top. Is there something I am missing that is placing this undesired padding at the top of my bufferedImages ?
I am making a 2d game engine and i was wonder is it better to use BufferedImages and subImages to store/render sprites from sprite sheets or use BufferedImages and store it in a pixel array and then manipulate the pixel array to do what you want.
Basically is loading in BufferedImage and getting the tile of the sprite sheet with subImages better than loading in a BufferedImage and then putting the data in a pixel array and making a new array with the part of the BufferedImage you want.what i have been told the BufferedImage and subImage use more of the graphics card and the pixel array method uses more of the processor.
I need to write an image to a .png with a 255-color indexed color model. I know usually do it like this: Java Code: BufferedImage img=new BufferedImage(width,height,BufferedImage.TYPE_BYTE_INDEXED,model); mh_sh_highlight_all('java'); but that doesn't work with models with 255 colors (as opposed to 256 colors). I'm fairly sure it is the BufferedImage creation that is the problem, as when I call model.getMapSize(), it returns the correct size.
The extra color added to the image's index is 15,15,15.
Should I be something other than a BufferedImage to write the image, or should I be using a different constructor for BufferedImage, or am I doing something else wrong?
I need my Java program (I'm working in Eclipse if it matters) to detect if an image is a portrait or a landscape, but since i am directly downloading them from my camera they only have it written somewhere in metadata, the image width and height is the same for landscape and portrait. I have the rotation code and the rest of the program working, but I need to somehow get a variable (for example integer one) to tell me if it is a portrait or a landscape image. I tried getting to the metadata but my Eclipse decided that import com.drew.metadata.Metadata; cannot be resolved.
BufferedImage image = ImageIO.read(new File(imagePath, imageName)); and after I get the variable "orientation" it looks like this
int orientation = ???; BufferedImage newImage = oldImage; if (orientation>1){ newImage = rotate(oldImage); }
