All Implemented Interfaces:

Accessible, ImageObserver, MenuContainer, Serializable

Direct Known Subclasses:

PSPanel

public class BufferedPanel

extends JPanel

implements Serializable

This class extends JPanel by adding double buffering. This is intended to be used in situations in which redrawing the contents of the panel is expensive.

Method Summary

Graphics	getGraphics() Returns a pointer to the graphics (VectorGraphics) context of the buffer.
void	invalidate() Triggers a full repaint, since the component is not valid anymore (size change, iconized, ...)
boolean	isDisplaying() Returns true if the drawing is made for a PixelGraphics context, the display.
boolean	isExporting() Returns true if the drawing is made for a VectorGraphics context.
boolean	isPrinting() Returns true if the drawing is made for a PrinterGraphics context.
void	paintComponent(Graphics g) Paint this panel by calling paintComponent(VectorGraphics) if necessary and flushing the buffered image to the screen.
void	paintComponent(VectorGraphics vg) Allows for custom graphics to be painted.
void	repaint() Triggers a full "user" repaint.
void	setBounds(int x, int y, int w, int h) Resize and move a component.

Constructor Detail

BufferedPanel

public BufferedPanel(boolean opaque)

Creates a new BufferedPanel with a width and height set to zero.

Parameters:

opaque - transparent panel

Method Detail

repaint

public void repaint()

Triggers a full "user" repaint. If the "system" wants to repaint it will call the paint(Graphics) method directly, rather than scheduling a paint(Graphics) through a repaint().

Overrides:

repaint in class Component

invalidate

public void invalidate()

Triggers a full repaint, since the component is not valid anymore (size change, iconized, ...)

Overrides:

invalidate in class Container

paintComponent

public void paintComponent(Graphics g)

Paint this panel by calling paintComponent(VectorGraphics) if necessary and flushing the buffered image to the screen. This method also handles printing and exporting separately.

Overrides:

paintComponent in class JComponent

Parameters:

g - Graphics object

getGraphics

public Graphics getGraphics()

Returns a pointer to the graphics (VectorGraphics) context of the buffer.

Overrides:

getGraphics in class JComponent

paintComponent

public void paintComponent(VectorGraphics vg)

Allows for custom graphics to be painted. Subclasses should implement real drawing here. They can ask isPrinting(), isExporting() or isDisplaying() to see where the output goes. If painting is done to a display it is done to a buffer which is kept and copied afterwards. Note that the parameter here is of class VectorGraphics rather than Graphics.

setBounds

public void setBounds(int x,
                      int y,
                      int w,
                      int h)

Resize and move a component.

Overrides:

setBounds in class Component

isPrinting

public boolean isPrinting()

Returns true if the drawing is made for a PrinterGraphics context.

isExporting

public boolean isExporting()

Returns true if the drawing is made for a VectorGraphics context.

isDisplaying

public boolean isDisplaying()

Returns true if the drawing is made for a PixelGraphics context, the display. True if not Printing and not Exporting.
