[SOLVED]How do I drag shapes in Java?

Hi,

Easy enuff for the clever ones out there but still iludes me.

What would I have to accomplish to have a canvas in Java with some shapes/icons/images on to it that can be dragged around and left there (be rearranged) on that canvas?

The positions after this "excercise" would be read out and stored...

I'd set this up in Java as an applet.

Some pointers woild be nice...thanks in advance.

Wellness to all

Thor

I would think that you could easily figure it out once you understood how to handle mouse events.

Hi,

Gottit! I followed your pointer and "I have arrived" !

Thanks

It does involve mouse events, "remembering" locations before and after and redrawing shapes.

Thanks!
