Graphite is a simple library to draw 2d graphics on your screen in Java.
It uses a JFrame (JPanel) and its graphics to draw shapes and texts to
create simple graphics.
(Inspired by the SuM library.)
//Create a Screen:
Screen screen = new Screen(int width, int height, String title);
//Create a Pen and link it to the screen:
Pen pen = new Pen(Screen screen);
//Move the pen:
pen.moveBy(float distance);
pen.moveTo(float x, float y);
pen.moveToMousePos();
float pen.getXPos();
float pen.getYPos();
//Rotate the pen:
pen.rotateToMousePos();
pen.rotateBy(float rotation);
pen.rotateTo(float x, float y);
pen.rotate();
pen.setRotation(float cRotation);
float pen.getRotation();
//Put the pen to draw
pen.up();
pen.down();
boolean pen.isDrawing();
//Change the color of the pen:
pen.setColor(Color color);
pen.setColorToBackground();
Color pen.getColor();
//Draw a shape:
pen.drawLine(float x1, float y1, float x2, float y2);
pen.drawTriangle(float length);
pen.drawCircle(float radius);
pen.drawArc(float width, float height, float startRotation, float endRotation, int mode);
(arc_modes: ARC_OPEN / ARC_PIE / ARC_CHORD)
pen.drawRectangle(float width, float height, float arch);
pen.drawRectangle(float width, float height);
//Fill the shapes:
pen.setFillMode(boolean fillMode);
pen.boolean getFillMode();
//Switch drawing modes:
pen.setModeNormal();
pen.setModeSwitch();
int pen.getPaintMode();
//Write text:
pen.write(String text);
pen.setFont(Font font);
Font pen.getFont();
// !! UPDATE THE SCREEN AFTER DRAWING: !!
screen.redraw();
//Clear screen:
screen.clear();
//Change background:
screen.setBackgroundColor(Color color);
Color screen.getBackgroundColor();
//Make delay:
screen.sleep(int milliSeconds);
screen.sleep(int milliSeconds, int nanoSeconds);
//Change screen size:
screen.changeSize(int width, int height);
//End the program:
screen.release();
//Stop the program:
screen.exitProgram();
//Create an inheritance of EventScreen to edit the listeners for mouse and keyboard events
- Better write function
- More tools
- A way to edit font & font styles
- Image loader
