Drawing image on Graphics object does not work, but drawing lines work

For some reason painting an image does not appear to work on my Graphics object, please see the Triangle -> paintComponent() method.
Could I be missing something critical? Perhaps to do with not casting the Graphics object to Graphics2D? A transparency mask?
final JFrame jFrame = new JFrame();
jFrame.add(new Triangle());
jFrame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
jFrame.setSize(500,500);
jFrame.repaint();
jFrame.setVisible(true);
Triangle class:
public class Triangle extends JPanel {
private int x = 50;
private int y = 50;
private int width = 100;
private int length = 300;
private int direction = 0;
private BufferedImage renderedImage = null;
private Image getRenderedImage() {
if (renderedImage == null) {
BufferedImage image = new BufferedImage(100, 300, BufferedImage.TYPE_3BYTE_BGR);
drawGraphics(image.getGraphics());
}
return renderedImage;
}
private void drawGraphics(Graphics graphics) {
graphics.setColor(Color.BLUE);
// left
graphics.drawLine(
(int) Math.round(x - (width / 2.0)), y,
(int) x, y + length);
// right
graphics.drawLine(
(int) x, y + length,
(int) Math.round(x + (width / 2.0)), y);
// bottom
graphics.drawLine(
(int) Math.round(x - (width / 2.0)), y,
(int) Math.round(x + (width / 2.0)), y);
}
protected void paintComponent(Graphics graphics) {
// this works
//drawGraphics(graphics);
// this doesn't work
graphics.drawImage(getRenderedImage(), 0, 0, null);
}
}

Where to/ how to call my resizeimage method

Ok so I created a method that resizes an ImageIcon my question is how/ where do I call it in order to make the ImageIcon I want to resize to that size here it is thanks, and the method should work so anyone looking for a method that does resize you should be able to use it :)
public static void resizeIcon(ImageIcon icon, int Width, int Height){
Image geticon = icon.getImage();
BufferedImage bi = new BufferedImage(geticon.getWidth(null), geticon.getHeight(null), BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);
Graphics g = bi.createGraphics();
g.drawImage(geticon, 0, 0, Width, Height, null);
ImageIcon resizedicon = new ImageIcon(bi);
icon = resizedicon;
}

you save the resized image first .Then set the imageicon by resource as the resized image.
public static Boolean resizeImage(String sourceImage, String destinationImage, Integer Width, Integer Height) {
BufferedImage origImage;
try {
origImage = ImageIO.read(new File(sourceImage));
int type = origImage.getType() == 0? BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_ARGB : origImage.getType();
//*Special* if the width or height is 0 use image src dimensions
if (Width == 0) {
Width = origImage.getWidth();
}
if (Height == 0) {
Height = origImage.getHeight();
}
int fHeight = Height;
int fWidth = Width;
//Work out the resized width/height
if (origImage.getHeight() > Height || origImage.getWidth() > Width) {
fHeight = Height;
int wid = Width;
float sum = (float)origImage.getWidth() / (float)origImage.getHeight();
fWidth = Math.round(fHeight * sum);
if (fWidth > wid) {
//rezise again for the width this time
fHeight = Math.round(wid/sum);
fWidth = wid;
}
}
BufferedImage resizedImage = new BufferedImage(fWidth, fHeight, type);
Graphics2D g = resizedImage.createGraphics();
g.setComposite(AlphaComposite.Src);
g.setRenderingHint(RenderingHints.KEY_INTERPOLATION, RenderingHints.VALUE_INTERPOLATION_BILINEAR);
g.setRenderingHint(RenderingHints.KEY_RENDERING, RenderingHints.VALUE_RENDER_QUALITY);
g.setRenderingHint(RenderingHints.KEY_ANTIALIASING, RenderingHints.VALUE_ANTIALIAS_ON);
g.drawImage(origImage, 0, 0, fWidth, fHeight, null);
g.dispose();
ImageIO.write(resizedImage, "png", new File(destinationImage));
} catch (IOException ex) {
System.out.println(""+ex);
return false;
}
return true;
}
Then call
ImageIcon ico = new ImageIcon(destinationImage);
labelforIcon.setIcon(ico);

Java2D Image Rotation Issue

I am using following code to rotate an given image.
public int getImageWidth(BufferedImage img) {
if (rotate == Rotate.UPSIDE_DOWN || rotate == Rotate.ABOUT_CENTER)
return img.getWidth();
else
return img.getHeight();
}
public int getImageHeight(BufferedImage img) {
if (rotate == Rotate.UPSIDE_DOWN || rotate == Rotate.ABOUT_CENTER)
return img.getHeight();
else
return img.getWidth();
}
This is the Rotation enums
public enum Rotate {
DOWN, UP, UPSIDE_DOWN, ABOUT_CENTER;
}
Actual rotation method
public BufferedImage rotateImage(BufferedImage source, int x, int y,
float orientation) throws Exception {
int newWidth = getImageWidth(source);
int newHeight = getImageHeight(source);
int cWidth = newWidth / 2;
int cHeight = newHeight / 2;
int imgType = source.getType() == 0 ? 5 : source.getType();
BufferedImage result = new BufferedImage(getImageWidth(source),
getImageHeight(source),imgType);
Graphics2D g2 = result.createGraphics();
if (rotate == Rotate.DOWN) {
g2.translate(x + cHeight, y + cWidth);
g2.rotate(Math.toRadians(90));
g2.drawImage(source, 0, 0, newWidth, newHeight, null);
} else if (rotate == Rotate.UP) {
g2.translate(x + cHeight, y + cWidth);
g2.rotate(Math.toRadians(-90));
g2.drawImage(source, 0, 0, newWidth, newHeight, null);
} else if (rotate == Rotate.UPSIDE_DOWN) {
g2.translate(x + cWidth, y + cHeight);
g2.rotate(Math.toRadians(180));
g2.drawImage(source, 0, 0, newWidth, newHeight, null);
} else if (rotate == Rotate.ABOUT_CENTER) {
Rectangle r = new Rectangle(x, y, newWidth, newHeight);
g2.setClip(r);
AffineTransform original = g2.getTransform();
AffineTransform at = new AffineTransform();
at.concatenate(original);
at.rotate(orientation, x + cWidth, y + cHeight);
g2.setTransform(at);
g2.drawImage(source, 0, 0, newWidth, newHeight, null);
g2.setTransform(original);
}
g2.dispose();
g2 = null;
return result;
}
The client code
// rotate derived & filtered image to 90 degree
// using Affine transform
setRotate(Rotate.UP);
BufferedImage rSubImage = rotateImage(fSubImage, 0, 0, -90);
Now the following is an source image,
When i rotate this image using above code , the result is very strange
What did i do wrong ?
also the quality is lost after rotation , please notice it.

I think the solution is to use AffineTranform, translating the Image to reamin in the center. I modified your code and tested it, for me it works:
public BufferedImage rotateImage(BufferedImage source, int x, int y,
float orientation) throws Exception {
int newWidth = getImageWidth(source);
int newHeight = getImageHeight(source);
int imgType = source.getType() == 0 ? 5 : source.getType();
BufferedImage result = new BufferedImage(getImageWidth(source),
getImageHeight(source), imgType);
if (rotate == Rotate.DOWN) {
AffineTransform tranform = new AffineTransform();
tranform.translate(newWidth / 2, newHeight / 2);
tranform.rotate(Math.toRadians(90));
tranform.translate(-source.getWidth()/2, -source.getHeight()/2);
Graphics2D g2d = result.createGraphics();
g2d.drawImage(source, tranform, null);
} else if (rotate == Rotate.UP) {
AffineTransform tranform = new AffineTransform();
tranform.translate(newWidth / 2, newHeight / 2);
tranform.rotate(Math.toRadians(-90));
tranform.translate(-source.getWidth()/2, -source.getHeight()/2);
Graphics2D g2d = result.createGraphics();
g2d.drawImage(source, tranform, null);
} else if (rotate == Rotate.UPSIDE_DOWN) {
AffineTransform tranform = new AffineTransform();
tranform.translate(newWidth / 2, newHeight / 2);
tranform.rotate(Math.toRadians(180));
tranform.translate(-source.getWidth()/2, -source.getHeight()/2);
Graphics2D g2d = result.createGraphics();
g2d.drawImage(source, tranform, null);
} else if (rotate == Rotate.ABOUT_CENTER) {
//......
}
return result;
}
Hope it helps!

Using PrinterJob to print an Image (Graphics2D)

Is there a way I can rig a PrinterJob in Java to NOT actually print to a printer so that I can get the graphics objects for each page? I tried setting the PrintService to null, but Java wouldn't allow that.
This is so that I can retrieve an accurate Print Preview for the document without essentially rebuilding PrinterJobs functions from the ground-up in a different context.
Here's the code for the print function in my program:
public int print(Graphics graphics, PageFormat pageFormat, int page) throws PrinterException {
deepCopyString = string;
FontMetrics metrics = graphics.getFontMetrics(font);
int lineHeight = metrics.getHeight();
arrangePage(graphics, pageFormat, metrics);
if (page > pageBreaks.length){
return NO_SUCH_PAGE;
}
Graphics2D g = (Graphics2D) graphics;
g.translate(pageFormat.getImageableX(), pageFormat.getImageableY());
g.setFont(font);
int begin = (page == 0) ? 0 : pageBreaks[page-1];
int end = (page == pageBreaks.length) ? lines.length : pageBreaks[page];
int y = 0;
int x = 0;
for (int line = begin; line < end; line++){
x = 0;
y += lineHeight;
checkSyntax(line);
String l = lines[line];
for (int c = 0; c < l.length(); c++){
applySyntax(c, line);
metrics = graphics.getFontMetrics(font);
String ch = Character.toString(l.charAt(c));
g.setFont(font);
g.drawString(ch, x, y);
x += metrics.charWidth(l.charAt(c));
//System.out.println(c + "/"+l.length());
}
//g.drawString(lines[line], 0, y);
}
reset();
records.add(g);
return PAGE_EXISTS;
}
You can already see that the Graphics objects are recorded so that I can paint them in another component, but it's rather useless seeing as it will go ahead and send these to my printer before the record can be completed.
This may be a bad idea in general, and I'm pretty new to printing. If this is seriously a bad way to go about this, feel free to direct me to a source that'll explain a better way.

Basically, you want to create you own Graphics context to which you can paint. You also need to construct a PageFormat that can be past to the print method.
public class TestPrint implements Printable {
private BufferedImage background;
public static final float DPI = 72;
public static void main(String[] args) {

UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName());
} catch (Exception ex) {
}
try {

} catch (IOException ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
float width = cmToPixel(21f, DPI);
float height = cmToPixel(29.7f, DPI);
Paper paper = new Paper();

paper.setImageableArea(margin, margin, width - (margin * 2), height - (margin * 2));
PageFormat pf = new PageFormat();
pf.setPaper(paper);
BufferedImage img = new BufferedImage(Math.round(width), Math.round(height), BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);
Graphics2D g2d = img.createGraphics();
g2d.setColor(Color.WHITE);
g2d.fill(new Rectangle2D.Float(0, 0, width, height));
try {
g2d.setClip(new Rectangle2D.Double(pf.getImageableX(), pf.getImageableY(), pf.getImageableWidth(), pf.getImageableHeight()));
print(g2d, pf, 0);
} catch (PrinterException ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
g2d.dispose();
JFrame frame = new JFrame("Test");
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
frame.add(new JLabel(new ImageIcon(img)));
frame.pack();
frame.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
frame.setVisible(true);
}
});
}
public float cmToPixel(float cm, float dpi) {
return (dpi / 2.54f) * cm;
}
public int print(Graphics graphics, PageFormat pageFormat, int page) throws PrinterException {
if (page > 0) {
return NO_SUCH_PAGE;
}
Graphics2D g = (Graphics2D) graphics;
g.translate(pageFormat.getImageableX(), pageFormat.getImageableY());
if (background != null) {
int x = (int)Math.round((pageFormat.getImageableWidth() - background.getWidth()) / 2f);
int y = (int)Math.round((pageFormat.getImageableHeight() - background.getHeight()) / 2f);
g.drawImage(background, x, y, null);
}
g.setColor(Color.BLACK);
g.draw(new Rectangle2D.Double(0, 0, pageFormat.getImageableWidth() - 1, pageFormat.getImageableHeight() - 1));
return PAGE_EXISTS;
}
}
Now, obviously, there are going to be difference to what is printed to the screen and what's printed to the printer, because we're not actually using the same hardware device, but the basic concept applies

SWT Transparent Button/Label

I have researched this for days. It appears that most folks want to place buttons on a transparent canvas or shell. I need to place transparent clickable objects over a canvas/component. In my testing I find that if I don't attempt to put the object on the canvas it simply never displays.
In the final project the application will be showing animated objects with a number of controls that I plan to use images for.
In the example I am trying to work out I have taken Snipped195 which displays a turning torus. I am attempting to place an image label over the torus such that as the torus turns it will show through the area of the label that is transparent. I have set up a gif file that is a red plus sign and has a transparent background. I also picked up some code (can't remember where it came from now) that is part of the paintControl method that looks for transparent pixels and builds a Region object. The region object obviously is doing what it needs to do to define where the image goes. Do I need to apply the region somehow to the image instead of the canvas?
At first when I tried to do this I did get the image displayed. However where the transparent areas where it displayed white. After implementing the paintControl code it at least handled the transparent area properly. Now I need to get the actual image content to display.
I built an object to take care of the image label. I called it TransparentImageLabel. It looks like:
public class TransparentImageLabel extends Canvas {
private Image labelImage;
public TransparentImageLabel(Composite parent, Image image, int style) {
super(parent, style);
this.labelImage = image;
addDisposeListener(new DisposeListener() {
public void widgetDisposed(DisposeEvent e) {
TransparentImageLabel.this.widgetDisposed(e);
}
});
addPaintListener(new PaintListener() {
public void paintControl(PaintEvent e) {
TransparentImageLabel.this.paintControl(e);
}
});
}
private void widgetDisposed(DisposeEvent e) {
}
private void paintControl(PaintEvent event) {
System.out.println("at paint control");
ImageData imgData = this.labelImage.getImageData();
Region region = new Region();
if (imgData.alphaData != null) {
Rectangle pixel = new Rectangle(0, 0, 1, 1);
for (int y = 0; y < imgData.height; y++) {
for (int x = 0; x < imgData.width; x++) {
if (imgData.getAlpha(x, y) == 255) {
pixel.x = imgData.x + x;
pixel.y = imgData.y + y;
region.add(pixel);
}
}
}
} else {
ImageData mask = imgData.getTransparencyMask();
Rectangle pixel = new Rectangle(0, 0, 1, 1);
for (int y = 0; y < mask.height; y++) {
for (int x = 0; x < mask.width; x++) {
if (mask.getPixel(x, y) != 0) {
pixel.x = imgData.x + x;
pixel.y = imgData.y + y;
region.add(pixel);
}
}
}
}
this.setRegion(region);
event.gc.drawImage(labelImage, this.getBounds().x, this.getBounds().y);
region.dispose();
}
}
After adding this to Snipped195 the code looks like:
public class Snippet195 {
private Image redPlus;
static void drawTorus(float r, float R, int nsides, int rings) {
float ringDelta = 2.0f * (float) Math.PI / rings;
float sideDelta = 2.0f * (float) Math.PI / nsides;
float theta = 0.0f, cosTheta = 1.0f, sinTheta = 0.0f;
for (int i = rings - 1; i >= 0; i--) {
float theta1 = theta + ringDelta;
float cosTheta1 = (float) Math.cos(theta1);
float sinTheta1 = (float) Math.sin(theta1);
GL11.glBegin(GL11.GL_QUAD_STRIP);
float phi = 0.0f;
for (int j = nsides; j >= 0; j--) {
phi += sideDelta;
float cosPhi = (float) Math.cos(phi);
float sinPhi = (float) Math.sin(phi);
float dist = R + r * cosPhi;
GL11.glNormal3f(cosTheta1 * cosPhi, -sinTheta1 * cosPhi, sinPhi);
GL11.glVertex3f(cosTheta1 * dist, -sinTheta1 * dist, r * sinPhi);
GL11.glNormal3f(cosTheta * cosPhi, -sinTheta * cosPhi, sinPhi);
GL11.glVertex3f(cosTheta * dist, -sinTheta * dist, r * sinPhi);
}
GL11.glEnd();
theta = theta1;
cosTheta = cosTheta1;
sinTheta = sinTheta1;
}

I have to be close. The areas of the image that are defined as transparent are being drawn as transparent. But I'm not getting anything but a white plus instead of the red that is in the image.

The problem is in your TransparentImageLabel#paintControl(..) method. Correct the second last line to the following:
event.gc.drawImage(labelImage, 0, 0);
Since you are drawing within the context of the canvas so the coordinates you specify for location should be relative to that Canvas. You are currently using the location of canvas which is returned relative to it's parent.
