Having a background picture with a ball in front

[Junaid2pac]

I am making a game in which a ball travels across the screen, and there is a background picture. What happens is that the ball does not really seem to be in front of the picture, since it kinda looks transluscent as it goes through the picture. How would i make the ball appear at the front or opaque. The ball was drawn using g.fillOval().

Is there an argument for Alpha, or Transparency? If so, set that to 255.

[Junaid2pac]

do u know the code for setting it to the number u sugested

[Euphoracle]

No. With regards to my statement, you must find a way to set "Alpha" or "Transparency" or synonyms thereof to "255" unless someone else knows it. Google & Javadocs are your friend.

how do u move an object

[HellblazerX]

U keep a set of variables to store the position of your object, and draw the object at that those coordinates. when u want to move it, just change the values of the coordinates, and redraw the object
