Putting an Image inside a Panel

Thread view:

I am writting an Applet (not a JApplet) and I have all the GUI ready,
with panels and panels inside panels. In one of this panels I need to
show an Image, but I can't work out how to do it. The image keeps
showing in the background of the applet, so the panels cover it. I have
tried:

Graphics gr=myPanel.getGraphics();
gr.drawImage(myImnage,0,0,null);

inside the paint() method, but It doesn't work.

Could you help me? I am just a beginner in Java.

Thanks

You should draw the image from within the panel's paint method, not the
applet's paint.

Panel myPanel = new Panel()
{
public void paint(Graphics g)
{
g.drawImage(myImage, 0, 0, null);
}
};

applet.add(myPanel);

I think this should work.
