You could implement this with a class like this:
public class ShapeObject implements Shape { private final Shape shape; private float x = 0; private float y = 0; public ShapeObject(Shape shape) { this.shape = shape; } public float getX() { return x; } public void setX(float x) { this.x = x; } public float getY() { return y; } public void setY(float y) { this.y = y; } public boolean *contains*(double x, double y) { return shape.contains(x - this.x, y - this.y); } public Rectangle2D *getBounds2D*() { Rectangle2D bounds2D = shape.getBounds2D(); bounds2D.setRect(bounds2D.getX() + x, bounds2D.getY() + y, bounds2D.getWidth(), bounds2D.getHeight()); return bounds2D; } public PathIterator *getPathIterator*(AffineTransform at) { AffineTransform at2 = new AffineTransform(at); at2.translate(x, y); return shape.getPathIterator(at2); } // You have to implement the other Shape methods yourself } This class is more or less all you need. Put each of your shapes into a ShapeObject class and move the ShapeObjects around using the setX() and setY() methods. BTW, the questions was not too stupid to be answered, but most people have quite a lot to do so answers sometimes take a bit longer or never come. Cheers Jan Danilo Costa wrote:

I have a collection of Shapes that are rendered in a canvas and I have to let the user to interact with it, dragging it. I've found this example http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/2d/display/user.html called Shape mover, but actually it works only with Rectangle class, which has convenient methods for that, such as setLocation and translate. I am wondering why Shape interface does not define those methods? How can I implement such methods when I am working with generic shapes? Any help is appreciate.
