Repainting/refreshing the JFrame

Question

I have a \"car\" made with various objects using graphics g and I want to move it when a button is pressed. With that, I had no problem, but I have a problem with its path. When

Answer 1

You should never be calling sleep() on the UI thread. Instead, I highly recommend that you use javax.swing.Timer and an ActionListener. Something like:

 void paintCar(Graphics2D g2d, int x) {
    g2d.setColor(Color.blue);
    g2d.fillRect(x+10, 351, 118, 23);
    g2d.fillRect(x+12, 321, 30, 40);
    g2d.fillRect(x+45, 330, 83, 20);
    g2d.setColor(Color.black);      
    g2d.fillOval(x+19, 362, 20, 20);
    g2d.fillOval(x+90, 362, 20, 20);
    g2d.drawString("2t", x+70, 344);
}       

int x = 0;
public MyConstructor() {
  new Timer(5, this).start();
}

public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae) {
  x++;
  repaint();
}

public void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
  super.paintComponent(g);
  Graphics2D g2d = (Graphics2D) g;
  paintCar(g2d, x);
}
