Sharing JPanel between client objects

I'm pretty new in Java, but I need to do something for school. I'm trying to do a Server-Client Puns game. I have Client and Server classes with chat and I have a class to drawing images on JPanel by mouse, but I have no idea how to share that picture with other Clients. Could you give me some ideas? Thanks!

public class Painter extends JPanel {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
int xvalue = -10, yvalue = -10;
public Painter() {
setPreferredSize(new Dimension(400, 400));
addMouseMotionListener(new MouseMotionAdapter() {
public void mouseDragged( MouseEvent event ) {

yvalue = event.getY();
repaint();
}
});
}
public void paint ( Graphics g ) {
g.fillOval( xvalue, yvalue, 10, 10 );
}
}

My suggestion would be to use a BufferedImage from which you there is a method getGraphics() I believe. Use this method as your graphics for drawing and you can then send the BufferedImage across.

How to Change Brightness of Image?

i have made an application that loads image from specific directory, loads all images in stack, when i am clicking on next button next image loads.
i have also added JSlider that change Brightness of Loaded Image but it doesn't work.
i don't know why but i am not getting exact problem.

anyone who can guide me and tell me where i am wrong ??

You may be able to adapt the approach shown in this RescaleTest, which varies the scaleFactor passed to RescaleOp to a value between zero and twice the slider's maximum.

how to add full image in JDialog this dialog is created by JOptionPane

Don't use JOptionPane but use a full-blown JDialog. Set the content pane to a JComponent that overrides paintComponent() and returns an appropriate getPreferredSize().
Example code below:
import java.awt.BorderLayout;
import java.awt.Dimension;
import java.awt.Frame;
import java.awt.Graphics;
import java.net.MalformedURLException;
import java.net.URL;
import javax.swing.ImageIcon;
import javax.swing.JButton;
import javax.swing.JDialog;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
import javax.swing.SwingUtilities;
public class TestBackgroundImage {
private static final String BACKHGROUND_IMAGE_URL = "http://cache2.allpostersimages.com/p/LRG/27/2740/AEPND00Z/affiches/blue-fiber-optic-wires-against-black-background.jpg";
protected void initUI() throws MalformedURLException {
JDialog dialog = new JDialog((Frame) null, TestBackgroundImage.class.getSimpleName());
dialog.setModal(true);
dialog.setDefaultCloseOperation(JDialog.DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE);
final ImageIcon backgroundImage = new ImageIcon(new URL(BACKHGROUND_IMAGE_URL));
JPanel mainPanel = new JPanel(new BorderLayout()) {
#Override
protected void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
super.paintComponent(g);
g.drawImage(backgroundImage.getImage(), 0, 0, getWidth(), getHeight(), this);
}
#Override
public Dimension getPreferredSize() {
Dimension size = super.getPreferredSize();
size.width = Math.max(backgroundImage.getIconWidth(), size.width);
size.height = Math.max(backgroundImage.getIconHeight(), size.height);
return size;
}
};
mainPanel.add(new JButton("A button"), BorderLayout.WEST);
dialog.add(mainPanel);
dialog.setSize(400, 300);
dialog.setVisible(true);
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
try {
new TestBackgroundImage().initUI();
} catch (MalformedURLException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
});
}
}
Don't forget to provide an appropriate parent Frame

JFrame.setVisible(false) and Robot.createScreenCapture timing

I'm trying to capture the screen without including my application's window. To do this I first call setVisible(false), then I call the createScreenCapture method, and finally I call setVisible(true). This isn't working however and I'm still getting my applications window in the screen capture. If I add a call to sleep this seems to resolve the issue, but I know this is bad practice. What is the right way to do this?
Code:
setVisible(false);
BufferedImage screen = robot.createScreenCapture(rectScreenSize);
setVisible(true);

Have you tried to use SwingUtilities.invokeLater() and run the capture inside of the runnable passed as an argument? My guess is that the repaint performed to remove your application is performed right after the end of the current event in the AWT-EventQueue and thus invoking the call immediately still captures your window. Invoking the createCapture in a delayed event through invokeLater should fix this.

you have to delay this action by implements Swing Timer, for example

Keeping the correct style on text retrieval

I am making an application similar to a chat. For that purpose I have two JTextPanes, one where I'm writing and one that displays messages. This is the code that handles the transferring of text from input to display :
String input = textPane.getText();
if(!input.endsWith("\n")){
input+="\n";
}
StyledDocument doc = displayPane.getStyledDocument();
int offset = displayPane.getCaretPosition();
textPane.setText("");
try {
doc.insertString(offset, input, set);
} catch (BadLocationException ex) {
Logger.getLogger(ChatComponent.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
}
The problem is that if i have colour on some words of the input text , the output is all coloured . So the colour is applied to all of the text when moved to display(while displayed correctly on input). Any suggestions on how i can move text properly?
Notice that same happens with other format as bold , italic etc

The text is already formatted on the input JTextPane . What i need to do
is transfer it as it is on a different JTextPane without having to check
the different style options

In the absence of a good SSCCE, I really don't know how you adding colour to the text on your JTextPane, but hopefully this method might sort things out for you :
import javax.swing.text.AttributeSet;
import javax.swing.text.SimpleAttributeSet;
import javax.swing.text.StyleConstants;
import javax.swing.text.StyleContext;
private void appendToTextPane(String name, Color c, String f)
{
StyleContext sc = StyleContext.getDefaultStyleContext();
AttributeSet aset = sc.addAttribute(SimpleAttributeSet.EMPTY, StyleConstants.Foreground, c);
aset = sc.addAttribute(aset, StyleConstants.FontFamily, f);
int len = Client.nPane.getDocument().getLength();
textPane.setCaretPosition(len);
textPane.setCharacterAttributes(aset, true);
textPane.replaceSelection(name);
}
With this you can give a different Color and Font to each String literal that will be added to your JTextPane.
Hope this new Code might help you in some way :
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import javax.swing.text.AttributeSet;
import javax.swing.text.SimpleAttributeSet;
import javax.swing.text.StyleConstants;
