Java repaint not working properly

Question

I use the java repaint method, it redraws, but the update is visible only when I either click on the canvas or resize the panel. How can i fix this? What causes it?

Answer 1

You need to call the revalidate () method. This forces the layout manager to update / redraw all of its components.

Answer 2

repaint () does not actually redraw, it just asks for the component to redraw.

Answer 3

Graphics , . Graphics. :

g = component.getGraphics(); 
draw(g);
