let me explain what i want to do.

  suppose i have one line

   e.g(1)  --------  (consider complete line instead of dotted line)

now when mouse comes over the end point of the line  then i want to highlight that 
endpoint with small circle like.

    e.g(2)      --------()  (conside () as a full circle and dotted line as complete 
line)

   for that i will use the getGraphics() method of the canvas the will draw the circle 
there , now say mouse is moved from the line end point to somewhere else
so i have to remove that circle .

    e.g(3)     --------

     for that i can draw circle at the same place and the color of the circle will be 
white(background color of canvas) , but this will cut the line
    e.g(4)   _____ _

for above all i can use update method so that graphics wan't flicker.

     now say i have two layer one displays the line and one such mouse over circles . 
so when mouse moved from the end point to somewhere else then i can clear whole layer( 
layer of circle). so i don't have to repaint whole drawing . but here my layers should 
be transparent.

  i got your diva link while searching the list , I will try that .
