public abstract class AbstractPaintable
extends Object
implements Paintable

The abstract class AbstractPaintable defines objects that implement Paintable.

A derived class must implement the following three methods:

As of 2.4.0, the former interface MutatablePaintable has been merged into Paintable. Furthermore, the interface MutatablePaintable has been removed from the Java Power Tools as has the class AbstractMutatablePaintable.

Much programming experience proved that splitting the design into two interfaces and two abstract classes was more hassle than it was worth. Although splittling the design into two classes was conceptually simple, it made programming much more difficult since the necessary facilities were not all available everywhere.

In 2.6.0, the notion of a background paint was refactored from Tile into required “set” and “get” methods in the Paintable interface with corresponding implementation in this class. See the comments on the paint method for further details on how the background paint is applied.

Also, in 2.6.0, support was added to use a paintable as a tile for a rectangle. Once this facility was in place, we added the option for one paintable to use another paintable as a background tile that will paint the bounding box of the primary paintable before that paintable itself paints.

The order of painting is now:

Of course, no painting takes place if the paintable is set to be invisible.

In 2.6.0c, added the method makeSnapshot. This method is implemented via:

    PaintableTools.makeBufferedImage(this)

Since:
2.3
Version:
2.6.0c

AbstractPaintable

public AbstractPaintable()
Method Detail

paint

public void paint(Graphics g)

Paints onto a graphics context g using information from this object.

In this default implementation, the following policies apply. Note the that bounds region refers to the rectangle returned by getBounds2D.

When this method call is complete, the internal state of g should be unchanged. This is the case in this implementation. Any method that overrides this method must ensure the same invariant regarding g.

Specified by:
paint in interface Paintable
Parameters:
g - the graphics context on which to paint

paintAt

public final void paintAt(Graphics g,
                          double x,
                          double y)

Without changing the paintable or the graphics context, paint the paintable in a translated position specified by the point in coordinates.

In particular, paintAt(g,0,0) is equivalent to paint(g).

Recommendation: The paintAt methods are intended to be used if a designer wants to define a paintable at or near the origin of coordinates and then independently compute or retrieve the position at which the paintable will be painted. If the paintAt methods are used, it is recommended that the programmer avoid mutating the paintable directly since that will almost certainly lead to confusion and bugs. Either use mutation or use paintAt but not both.

Specified by:
paintAt in interface Paintable
Parameters:
g - the graphics context on which to paint
x - the x-translation
y - the y-translation

paintAt

public final void paintAt(Graphics g,
                          Point2D p)

Without changing the paintable or the graphics context, paint the paintable in a translated position specified by the point.

Recommendation: The paintAt methods are intended to be used if a designer wants to define a paintable at or near the origin of coordinates and then independently compute or retrieve the position at which the paintable will be painted. If the paintAt methods are used, it is recommended that the programmer avoid mutating the paintable directly since that will almost certainly lead to confusion and bugs. Either use mutation or use paintAt but not both.

Specified by:
paintAt in interface Paintable
Parameters:
g - the graphics context on which to paint
p - the translation vector

paintAt

public final void paintAt(Graphics g,
                          AffineTransform T,
                          double x,
                          double y)

Without changing the paintable or the graphics context, paint the paintable in a translated position specified by the point in coordinates and the affine transform T; before painting the transform T should be applied to the point.

The application of this facility is to apply a transform to the position of painting that should be applied to the position alone and NOT to the paintable or to the graphics context.

For example, if T is a reflection through a horizontal axis that places the origin (0,0) at the lower left of a panel, then it would probably be a very bad idea to apply the reflection to the graphics context (which turns every object upside down) or to the paintable (which turns the paintable upside down). The transform should be applied to the position alone.

Recommendation: The paintAt methods are intended to be used if a designer wants to define a paintable at or near the origin of coordinates and then independently compute or retrieve the position at which the paintable will be painted. If the paintAt methods are used, it is recommended that the programmer avoid mutating the paintable directly since that will almost certainly lead to confusion and bugs. Either use mutation or use paintAt but not both.

Specified by:

Parameters:
g - the graphics context on which to paint
T - the affine transform to apply to the translation point
x - the original x-translation before transformation
y - the original y-translation before transformation

                          AffineTransform T,

The application of this facility is to apply a transform to the position of painting that should be applied to the position alone and NOT to the paintable or to the graphics context.

setMutator

public void setMutator(AffineTransform M)

Sets the mutator transform to the given transform provided that the given transform is invertible and the paintable object supports this operation.

If the given transform is not invertible, the method does nothing.

Fires property change: SET_MUTATOR.

Remarks:

If the paintable object maintains a mutator object that transforms the paintable, then this method should set that mutator. Moreover, in this case, the method getMutator should return a copy of that mutator.

If the paintable object distributes mutation to internal data then this method may or may not make sense. The documentation of the implementation should state what, if anything, is done by this method. In particular, it is valid for the method getMutator to return an identity transform if no mutator is maintained explicitly.

Specified by:
setMutator in interface Paintable
Parameters:
M - the invertible affine transform to set as the mutator

addPreMutation

public void addPreMutation(AffineTransform M)

Composes the current mutator on the right with the given transform provided that the given transform is invertible and the paintable object supports this operation.

If the given transform is not invertible, the method does nothing.

Fires property change: SET_MUTATOR.

Remarks:

Normally, the action of the new mutator will be to apply the given transform and then to apply the old mutator.

If the paintable object distributes mutation to internal data then this method may or may not make sense. The documentation of the implementation should state what, if anything, is done by this method.

Specified by:
addPreMutation in interface Paintable
Parameters:
M - the invertible affine transform to compose

addPostMutation

public void addPostMutation(AffineTransform M)

Composes the current mutator on the left with the given transform provided that the given transform is invertible.

If the given transform is not invertible, the method does nothing.

Fires property change: SET_MUTATOR.

Remarks:

Normally, the action of the new mutator will be to apply the old mutator and then to apply the given transform.

This method should always have a meaningful interpretation for a paintable, that is, it should always be possible to apply a mutation that follows earlier mutations. If this method is implemented in a non-standard fashion, the documentation should state what is done.

Specified by:
addPostMutation in interface Paintable
Parameters:
M - the invertible affine transform to compose

setMutator

setMutator in interface Paintable
Parameters:
strategy - the mutator strategy to apply
