Constructor Detail

GraphicContext

public GraphicContext()
Default constructor

GraphicContext

public GraphicContext(AffineTransform defaultDeviceTransform)

Parameters: defaultDeviceTransform Default affine transform applied to map the user space to the user space.

Method Detail

addRenderingHints

public void addRenderingHints(Map hints)
Sets the values of an arbitrary number of preferences for the rendering algorithms. Only values for the rendering hints that are present in the specified Map object are modified. All other preferences not present in the specified object are left unmodified. Hint categories include controls for rendering quality and overall time/quality trade-off in the rendering process. Refer to the RenderingHints class for definitions of some common keys and values.

Parameters: hints the rendering hints to be set

See Also: RenderingHints

clip

public void clip(Shape s)
Intersects the current Clip with the interior of the specified Shape and sets the Clip to the resulting intersection. The specified Shape is transformed with the current Graphics2D Transform before being intersected with the current Clip. This method is used to make the current Clip smaller. To make the Clip larger, use setClip. The user clip modified by this method is independent of the clipping associated with device bounds and visibility. If no clip has previously been set, or if the clip has been cleared using {@link java.awt.Graphics#setClip(Shape) setClip} with a null argument, the specified Shape becomes the new user clip.

Parameters: s the Shape to be intersected with the current Clip. If s is null, this method clears the current Clip.

clipRect

public void clipRect(int x, int y, int width, int height)
Intersects the current clip with the specified rectangle. The resulting clipping area is the intersection of the current clipping area and the specified rectangle. If there is no current clipping area, either because the clip has never been set, or the clip has been cleared using setClip(null), the specified rectangle becomes the new clip. This method sets the user clip, which is independent of the clipping associated with device bounds and window visibility. This method can only be used to make the current clip smaller. To set the current clip larger, use any of the setClip methods. Rendering operations have no effect outside of the clipping area.

Parameters: x the x coordinate of the rectangle to intersect the clip with y the y coordinate of the rectangle to intersect the clip with width the width of the rectangle to intersect the clip with height the height of the rectangle to intersect the clip with

See Also: GraphicContext

getClip

public Shape getClip()
Gets the current clipping area. This method returns the user clip, which is independent of the clipping associated with device bounds and window visibility. If no clip has previously been set, or if the clip has been cleared using setClip(null), this method returns null.

Returns: a Shape object representing the current clipping area, or null if no clip is set.

Since: JDK1.1

rotate

public void rotate(double theta)
Concatenates the current Graphics2D Transform with a rotation transform. Subsequent rendering is rotated by the specified radians relative to the previous origin. This is equivalent to calling transform(R), where R is an AffineTransform represented by the following matrix:
          [   cos(theta)    -sin(theta)    0   ]
          [   sin(theta)     cos(theta)    0   ]
          [       0              0         1   ]
 
Rotating with a positive angle theta rotates points on the positive x axis toward the positive y axis.

Parameters: theta the angle of rotation in radians

rotate

public void rotate(double theta, double x, double y)
Concatenates the current Graphics2D Transform with a translated rotation transform. Subsequent rendering is transformed by a transform which is constructed by translating to the specified location, rotating by the specified radians, and translating back by the same amount as the original translation. This is equivalent to the following sequence of calls:
          translate(x, y);
          rotate(theta);
          translate(-x, -y);
 
Rotating with a positive angle theta rotates points on the positive x axis toward the positive y axis.

Parameters: theta the angle of rotation in radians x x coordinate of the origin of the rotation y y coordinate of the origin of the rotation

scale

public void scale(double sx, double sy)
Concatenates the current Graphics2D Transform with a scaling transformation Subsequent rendering is resized according to the specified scaling factors relative to the previous scaling. This is equivalent to calling transform(S), where S is an AffineTransform represented by the following matrix:
          [   sx   0    0   ]
          [   0    sy   0   ]
          [   0    0    1   ]
 

Parameters: sx the amount by which X coordinates in subsequent rendering operations are multiplied relative to previous rendering operations. sy the amount by which Y coordinates in subsequent rendering operations are multiplied relative to previous rendering operations.

setBackground

public void setBackground(Color color)
Sets the background color for the Graphics2D context. The background color is used for clearing a region. When a Graphics2D is constructed for a Component, the background color is inherited from the Component. Setting the background color in the Graphics2D context only affects the subsequent clearRect calls and not the background color of the Component. To change the background of the Component, use appropriate methods of the Component.

Parameters: color the background color that isused in subsequent calls to clearRect

See Also: GraphicContext java.awt.Graphics#clearRect

setClip

public void setClip(int x, int y, int width, int height)
Sets the current clip to the rectangle specified by the given coordinates. This method sets the user clip, which is independent of the clipping associated with device bounds and window visibility. Rendering operations have no effect outside of the clipping area.

Parameters: x the x coordinate of the new clip rectangle. y the y coordinate of the new clip rectangle. width the width of the new clip rectangle. height the height of the new clip rectangle.

Since: JDK1.1

See Also: java.awt.Graphics#clipRect java.awt.Graphics#setClip(Shape)

setClip

public void setClip(Shape clip)
Sets the current clipping area to an arbitrary clip shape. Not all objects that implement the Shape interface can be used to set the clip. The only Shape objects that are guaranteed to be supported are Shape objects that are obtained via the getClip method and via Rectangle objects. This method sets the user clip, which is independent of the clipping associated with device bounds and window visibility.

Parameters: clip the Shape to use to set the clip

Since: JDK1.1

See Also: java.awt.Graphics#getClip() java.awt.Graphics#clipRect java.awt.Graphics#setClip(int, int, int, int)

setColor

public void setColor(Color c)
Sets this graphics context's current color to the specified color. All subsequent graphics operations using this graphics context use this specified color.

Parameters: c the new rendering color.

See Also: java.awt.Color java.awt.Graphics#getColor

setComposite

public void setComposite(Composite comp)
Sets the Composite for the Graphics2D context. The Composite is used in all drawing methods such as drawImage, drawString, draw, and fill. It specifies how new pixels are to be combined with the existing pixels on the graphics device during the rendering process.

If this Graphics2D context is drawing to a Component on the display screen and the Composite is a custom object rather than an instance of the AlphaComposite class, and if there is a security manager, its checkPermission method is called with an AWTPermission("readDisplayPixels") permission.

Parameters: comp the Composite object to be used for rendering

Throws: SecurityException if a custom Composite object is being used to render to the screen and a security manager is set and its checkPermission method does not allow the operation.

See Also: java.awt.Graphics#setXORMode java.awt.Graphics#setPaintMode java.awt.AlphaComposite

setFont

public void setFont(Font font)
Sets this graphics context's font to the specified font. All subsequent text operations using this graphics context use this font.

Parameters: font the font.

See Also: java.awt.Graphics#getFont

setPaint

public void setPaint(Paint paint)
Sets the Paint attribute for the Graphics2D context. Calling this method with a null Paint object does not have any effect on the current Paint attribute of this Graphics2D.

Parameters: paint the Paint object to be used to generate color during the rendering process, or null

See Also: java.awt.Graphics#setColor java.awt.GradientPaint java.awt.TexturePaint

setRenderingHint

shear

public void shear(double shx, double shy)
Concatenates the current Graphics2D Transform with a shearing transform. Subsequent renderings are sheared by the specified multiplier relative to the previous position. This is equivalent to calling transform(SH), where SH is an AffineTransform represented by the following matrix:
          [   1   shx   0   ]
          [  shy   1    0   ]

Parameters: shx the multiplier by which coordinates are shifted in the positive X axis direction as a function of their Y coordinate shy the multiplier by which coordinates are shifted in the positive Y axis direction as a function of their X coordinate

transform

public void transform(AffineTransform Tx)
Composes an AffineTransform object with the Transform in this Graphics2D according to the rule last-specified-first-applied. If the current Transform is Cx, the result of composition with Tx is a new Transform Cx'. Cx' becomes the current Transform for this Graphics2D. Transforming a point p by the updated Transform Cx' is equivalent to first transforming p by Tx and then transforming the result by the original Transform Cx. In other words, Cx'(p) = Cx(Tx(p)). A copy of the Tx is made, if necessary, so further modifications to Tx do not affect rendering.

Parameters: Tx the AffineTransform object to be composed with the current Transform

See Also: GraphicContext AffineTransform

translate

public void translate(int x, int y)
Translates the origin of the graphics context to the point (xy) in the current coordinate system.

All coordinates used in subsequent rendering operations on this graphics context will be relative to this new origin.

Parameters: x the x coordinate. y the y coordinate.

translate

public void translate(double tx, double ty)
Concatenates the current Graphics2D Transform with a translation transform. Subsequent rendering is translated by the specified distance relative to the previous position. This is equivalent to calling transform(T), where T is an AffineTransform represented by the following matrix:
          [   1    0    tx  ]
          [   0    1    ty  ]
          [   0    0    1   ]
 

Parameters: tx the distance to translate along the x-axis ty the distance to translate along the y-axis

validateTransformStack

public void validateTransformStack()
Marks the GraphicContext's isNewTransformStack to false as a memento that the current transform stack was read and has not been reset. Only the setTransform method can override this memento.
