Thread: cant rotate image

Hi i am learning java right now and i ran into problem where i cant rotate images. It just doesnt work, i have tryed many examples from the internet. For example:

    public void paint(Graphics g){
 
        super.paint(g);
 
 
 
        g2d.drawImage(img, x, y,this);
         g2d.translate(x, y);
         g2d.rotate(1);  
 
 
 
        Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().sync();
        g.dispose();
    }

What is g2d? And it's rare that you'd want to override the paint() method, but it's hard to tell that it's completely inappropriate in the tiny bit of context you've given us.

G2d is graphics2D. I am not sure whye didnt i wrote it here. I am currently not on computer so i cant give the full code. But can u just write the code you would use if you wanted to rotate image? And i am really sorry about not giving more details, i am new to java.

There are several examples on the amazing Internet available for your study. You might also take time to understand the relationship of one graphics context to another, for example understanding how the Graphics2D object comes to be and the significance of that to what you're trying to accomplish is essential. The Custom Painting Lesson is a good place to start and is fundamental.
