Graphics2D g2D = (Graphics2D) g;
Dimension dim = getSize();
int w = dim.width;
int h = dim.height;
if (firstTime){
firstTime = false;
bi = (BufferedImage) createImage(w,h);
big = bi.createGraphics();
area = new Rectangle(dim);
}
big.setColor(Color.white);
big.clearRect(0,0,w,h);
...
and so on, calling the big.draw(A_Shape_Object) method to paint what I want to be draw in the window. But that only works with Shape objects. I want to know how do I make this with JTextArea Objects and another javax.swing... elements that I want to be show in the window. I've tryied to just use the setLocation in the object, position it in some cordinate of the show area, but it doesn't appear =/ don't know what can I do.
Hope I'm not being problem, but I need help with this and don't know where can I go search some but here. Well, thx anyway ^^

You need to override paintComponent(), not paint(). If you override
paint(), you need to draw the children of the current component
yourself (paint draws borders, children, etc.). But if you override
paintComponent(), then your responsible only for the component's
contents, and Swing will handle the children.

What said Odin to the Gods and to the Champions who surrounded him? "We will give our lives and let our world be destroyed, but we will battle so that these evil powers will not live after us." Out of Hel's ship sprang Fenrir the Wolf. His mouth gaped; his lower jaw hung against the earth, and his upper jaw scraped the sky. Against the Wolf Odin All-Father fought...
