how do i make semi-transparent colors?

how do i make semi-transparent colors?

Postby fipi on Thu May 03, 2007 6:57 pm

Hello everyone, I need help with drawing semi-transparent colors. I'm trying to fill a JPanel with a semi-transparent Color. I'm using double buffering, so i draw a semitransparent filled rectangle in a render() method to a buffer Image, which is then drawn in paintComponent(). To get the transparency, i use a Color created with a constructor that has a transparency argument as well as RGB:

Code: Select all
new Color(200,200,200, 128)


The buffer Image is from Component's createImage(int width, int height) method.
I don't know what I'm doing wrong (more like i don't know what i'm doing at all :P) ... so i would be really grateful for some help...
