Java - Determining if two Ellipses intersect

I'm creating a 2D topdown shooter game with Java Swing in which I want circular hitboxes for my player and enemies as well as projectiles. For hit detection I need to figure out if there is an intersection between a projtile and a Sprite (player or enemy). My issue is that Ellipse2D's intersect function (that takes a position a width and height) creates a Rectangle out of the arguments. In its description it advises using Area for high precision and I was hoping it had an intersect function for any shape but that also casts its argument to a Rectangle.
Here's the jist of my Sprite object:
public class Sprite {
protected float worldX;
protected float worldY;
protected float drawX;
protected float drawY;
protected int width;
protected int height;
protected Image image;
...
}
In essence I'm storing their x and y coordinates as well as their width and height.(drawX and drawY are only used for rendering)
Is there a build-in method (preferably in Swing) to intersect Ellipses with other shapes (specifically other Ellipses and Rectangles) or is there no better option then implementing these by hand?

With a simple modification to the answer form Detecting collision of two sprites that can rotate

Java fade in and out of images

I am trying to learn how to fade in and out images into another image or from another image. So, if I have 2 images, and 1 is being displayed at the moment, I want to display another image in the background and fade the first image out into the 2nd image. OR, I want to set the focus on the new image and slowly fade it in over the 1st image, then stop displaying the 1st one.
I'm not sure how:
to set focus, if even needed.
I can fade in if I change the alpha to 0 and increment up and only draw one image, however I cannot get it to fade out either with any variation of this code. (i.e. commenting out one image to draw).
Edit: Really, all I'm worried about is being able to have 2 images and make the image currently being displayed slowly disappear into the 2nd image. How that is accomplished doesn't need to be with this.
Here is a code sample I'm messing with:
import java.awt.AlphaComposite;
import java.awt.Graphics;
import java.awt.Graphics2D;
import java.awt.Image;
import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
import java.awt.event.ActionListener;
import javax.swing.ImageIcon;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
import javax.swing.Timer;
public class FadeIn extends JPanel implements ActionListener {
private Image imagem;
private Image image2;
private Timer timer;
private float alpha = 1f;
public FadeIn() {
imagem = (new ImageIcon(getClass().getResource(
"/resources/1stImage.jpg"))).getImage();
image2 = (new ImageIcon(getClass().getResource(
"/resources/2ndImage.jpg"))).getImage();
timer = new Timer(20, this);
timer.start();
}
// here you define alpha 0f to 1f
public FadeIn(float alpha) {
imagem = (new ImageIcon(getClass().getResource(
"/resources/1stImage.jpg"))).getImage();
this.alpha = alpha;
}
#Override
public void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
super.paintComponent(g);
Graphics2D g2d = (Graphics2D) g;
g2d.drawImage(imagem, 0, 0, 400, 300, null);
g2d.setComposite(AlphaComposite.getInstance(AlphaComposite.SRC_OVER,
alpha));
g2d.drawImage(image2, 0, 0, 400, 300, null);
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
JFrame frame = new JFrame("Fade out");
frame.add(new FadeIn());
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
frame.setSize(420, 330);
// frame.pack();
frame.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
frame.setVisible(true);
}
#Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
alpha += -0.01f;
if (alpha <= 0) {
alpha = 0;
timer.stop();
}
repaint();
}
}

Basically, what this does is use the same alpha value, fading in from 0-1 and then using the same alpha, going from 1-0, allowing the two images to cross fade over each other...
The magic basically, happens in the paintComponent, where the image coming in using the alpha value and the outgoing image uses 1f - alpha.
Switching between the two images is actually a the same process, expect the inImage is swapped for the outImage
The timing is little different. Instead of a straight move from 0-1 using a standard delta (ie 0.01 for example), this uses a time based algorithm.
That is, I use a timer which ticks every 40 milliseconds or so, it then does a calculation based on the amount of time the timer has being running and calculates the alpha value accordingly...
This allows you to change the amount of time the animation will take, but also provides a slightly better algorithm that takes into account the passive nature of Swings rendering engine...

in this code you can see a thread code. in the thread this image will fade in.
the used image is stack overflow web page's logo image.
only by shown code the image will fade in.
Thread tp = new Thread() {
#Override
public void run() {
for (int amp = 0; amp <= 500; amp++) {
try {
sleep(1);
try {
BufferedImage bim = ImageIO.read(new File("src/image/fade/image.png"));
BufferedImage nbim = new BufferedImage(bim.getWidth(), bim.getHeight(), BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_ARGB);
Graphics2D createGraphics = nbim.createGraphics();
createGraphics.drawImage(bim, null, 0, 0);
RescaleOp r = new RescaleOp(new float[]{1f, 1f, 1f, (float) amp / 500}, new float[]{0, 0, 0, 0}, null);
BufferedImage filter = r.filter(nbim, null);
l.setIcon(new ImageIcon(filter));
} catch (Exception ex) {
System.err.println(ex);
}
} catch (InterruptedException ex) {
}
}
}
};
tp.start();
This code is very simple to use.
This is not from any book, internet or etc. It is developed by me.
A normal image is not able to change alpha. By code : BufferedImage nbim = new BufferedImage(bim.getWidth(), bim.getHeight(), BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_ARGB); the image will convert to ARGB - Alpha, Red, Green, Blue (R,G,B,A) image.
So you can change the alpha of a image.

Is there any way to create a dynamic Zoom Box in Java which will include e. g. 20x20pix area around the cursor (but even when cursor will move beyond the Frame of app) and which will be shown for example in a small JPanel?
I'm asking in context of a Color Chooser program. The last functionality need to be implemented is just that Zoom Box.

I'm sure there are a number of different ways that this could be achieved.
This basically uses a separate component, which acts as the "zoom box". You supply it a component that you want to "zoom" on. It adds a mouse listener so it can monitor mouse motion events and enter and exit events.
These are used to determine when the "popup" window should be shown, where the popup window should be shown and the area that should be "painted".
This uses the "component to be zoomed" paint method to paint a region to of it to a backing buffer, which is then scaled and painted to the "zoom box"...simple
I've not played around with the zoom factor, so there may still be some quirks, but you should get the basic idea...
While I've presented a image to act as the background, this should work on any component

Updated with "screen" version
This version will allow you to display a "zoom window" any where on the screen.
This has a minor issue in the fact that you need to hide the zoom window before you capture the screen, then re-show it.
I might be tempted to change the process so that when the updateBuffer method detected that the mouse position hadn't changed, it updated the buffer and showed the zoom window. When the mouse position changes, it would hide the window again...but that's me ;)

Updated with "tooltip" style popup
The main problems with the second example is the fact that you need to hide the popup in order to grab a screen shoot. This is done to prevent the popup from begin captured as well. This makes the popup "flash" every time the mouse is moved.
You "could" get around this ensuring the popup is positioned out side the range of the capture, but as you increase the capture area, the popup will move further away from the cursor.
This would, of course, be a great solution for fixed position display (ie, you had a panel fixed on a JFrame instead of a floating box)
This is an additional update that uses a second timer to display the zoom box after the user has stopped moving the mouse.

Java paint image on negative coordinates

I want to do something best explained by this picture:
In words, i need to right-down part of picture into left-top part of jpanel, i have tried setting x and y to negative, but with no succes, the image is just not displayed at all. It there a simple way to do this?
I am currently using
g.drawImage(img, x, y, null)
//x and y are negative
to draw it.

I would verify you x/y position is being calculated correctly and add a ImageObserver reference to your g.drawImage if you're painting to the screen

Java make a directed line and make it move

I want to make a directed line and make it move. I am able to make a directed line and move the line but the arrow get displaced while i move the line
This is my paint method
Line2D.Double line = new Line2D.Double(startX, startY, endX, endY);
g2d.draw(line);
tx.setToIdentity();
double angle = Math.atan2(line.y2 - line.y1, line.x2 - line.x1);
tx.translate(line.x2, line.y2);
tx.rotate((angle - Math.PI / 2d));
Graphics2D gClone = (Graphics2D) g2d.create();
gClone.setTransform(tx);
Polygon arrowHead = new Polygon();
arrowHead.addPoint(0, 15);
arrowHead.addPoint(-15, -15);
arrowHead.addPoint(15, -15);
Area area = new Arear(arrowHead );
Area lineArea = new Area(line);
lineArea.subtract(area);
gClone.fill(area);
gClone.dispose();
and i have change the value of startx and start y at mouse pressedd
and endx and enny at mouse drag

This is a basic example that demonstrates the use of a Path2D, to define a custom shape and an AffineTransformation to transform the shape.
This example will cause the arrow to point towards the mouse as it moves over the panel

Update with example two
Basically, this uses the PointyThing as the arrow head only, and draws the line separately.
The arrow is orientated so it will point down the line (towards the mouse)
