g2d.fillRect(0, 0, c.getWidth(), c.getHeight());
g2d.dispose();
}
}
the panel doesn't display BLUE color at all, but I don't know why. Could anyone help me out? I just couldn't find out. http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/misc/jlayer.html
Your paint
method doesn't override a superclass method, so it's not being called. Change the signature to:
public void paint(Graphics g, JComponent c)
... and add the @Override
annotation so that in future, the compiler can find the problem for you...
