    Drawing

    Hey rigth now im in the process of learning the draw functions and I would like to make it so that the screen doesnt clear itself each time I draw, Here part of my code doing the drawing and stuff.

    public void keyPressed( KeyEvent e ) { }
    public void keyReleased( KeyEvent e ) { }
    public void keyTyped( KeyEvent e ) {
    char c = e.getKeyChar();
    if ( c == 127) {
    //s = s - 1;
    }
    if ( c != KeyEvent.CHAR_UNDEFINED && c != 127 && c != 50 && c != 52 && c != 54 && c != 56) {
    paintNum = 1;
    s = s + c;
    repaint();
    e.consume();
    }
    if (c == 50) {
    paintNum = 2;
    repaint();
    e.consume();
    }
    if (c == 52) {
    paintNum = 2;
    repaint();
    e.consume();
    }
    if (c == 54) {
    paintNum = 2;
    repaint();
    e.consume();
    }
    if (c == 56) {
    paintNum = 2;
    repaint();
    e.consume();
    }
    }

    public void paint( Graphics g ) {
    if (paintNum == 1) {
    g.setColor( Color.gray );
    g.drawLine( x, y, x, y-10 );
    g.drawLine( x, y, x+10, y );
    g.setColor( Color.green );
    g.drawString( s, 10, 17 );
    paintNum = 0;
    }
    if (paintNum == 2) {
    g.drawImage(logo,0,0,this);
    paintNum = 0;
    }

    If you can help I thank you very much!

    Leave out the repaint() methods and then the screen shouldn't refresh. also , you have a nested statement that only has a comment in it, but i dont know if that was on purpose or not.

    also, setting the panel that you are drawing on, to setDoubleBuffered(true) will remove on-draw flickering of the graphics
