Java - Drawing Shapes Example using color in java

Introduction

In this program we will show you how to draw the different types of colorful shapes. This example show the different types of colorful shapes like line, circle and the rectangle. It also displays the different - different colors such as red, magenta and yellow to be used in those shapes.

In this program there are several types of methods have been used to fill or set the color of line, text, circle background and rectangle background. These are given just ahead :

Graphics.setColor() :
This is the setColor() method which is the Graphics class method imported by the java.awt.*; package. This method sets the color for the object by specified color. Here is the syntax of the setColor() method :

g.setColor(Color.color_name);

Graphics.fillOval() :
This is the fillOval() method used to fill the color inside the oval by specified color. Here is the syntax of the fillColor() method :

g.fillColor(Color.color_name);

Graphics.fillRect() :
This is the fillRect() method used to fill the color inside the rectangle by specified color. Here is the syntax of the fillRect() method :

g.fillRect(int X_coordinate, int Y_coordinate, int Wdth, int height)

Here is the java code of the program :.


import java.applet.*;

 import java.awt.*;

 

 public class  ShapColor extends Applet{

   int x=300,y=100,r=50;

 

   public void paint(Graphics g){

   g.setColor(Color.red);  //Drawing line color is red

   g.drawLine(3,300,200,10);

   g.setColor(Color.magenta);  

   g.drawString("Line",100,100);

 

   g.drawOval(x-r,y-r,100,100);

   g.setColor(Color.yellow);  //Fill the yellow color in circle

   g.fillOval( x-r,y-r, 100, 100 );

   g.setColor(Color.magenta);

   g.drawString("Circle",275,100);

   

   g.drawRect(400,50,200,100);

   g.setColor(Color.yellow);  //Fill the yellow color in rectangel

   g.fillRect( 400, 50, 200, 100 );

   g.setColor(Color.magenta);

   g.drawString("Rectangel",450,100);

   }

 }

Here is the HTML code of the program:

<HTML>
<HEAD>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<div align="center">
<APPLET ALIGN = "CENTER" CODE = "ShapColor.class" WIDTH = "800"> HEIGHT = "500"></APPLET>
</div>
</BODY>
</HTML>
