Is it possible to use animation while asking for user input in Java?

What type of input are you looking for? Are you asking the user to type something in, or are you checking which keys they are pressing?

Not if it is in the console, well at least you should not do it that way.

Ideally you should have some kind of GUI input field or be checking the key presses with a action listener. Since theses methods would be even driven you could easily be animating something at the same time. (This is assuming your animation is not in the console).

P.S. please use more detialed subjects then just help.

Use a nice textfield for input in your case. Look up the JTextField class.

Thank you very much, I'll try what you guys suggested. And next time, I'll make more detailed subjects (sorry!)
