Graphics with floating points instead of Integers

[rdjava]

I think i forgot to actually post this last time but anyways my question is I want to know if there is a way to use some kind of graphics where I don't have to use integers, for example

g.fillOval(int w, int h, int x, int y);

I want to know if there is someway to be able to use say doubles or floating point integers. Is there some special package for this? would OpenGL be good to use?

See the API for shape: Shape (Java Platform SE 6)
In particular, the classes which implement the interface, many of which take double or float values and since they implement the Shape interface, can be drawn using Graphics2D.draw or fill methods

Read the API for Graphics2D and go through the tutorial:
Trail: 2D Graphics (The Java™ Tutorials)

Wherever a method (such as paintComponent) is passed a Graphics reference, you can safely cast the reference to Graphics2D. In all current Java versions (and some obsolete versions too) every Graphics object is a Graphics2D.

Just remember that screen rendering is always integral, there's nothing like painting half a pixel. The illusion of fractional resolution can be created by anti-aliasing.

Is there a way to use anti-aliasing with Graphics2D?

Did you try google? Dozens if not hundreds of demonstrations...plus one more:

g2d.setRenderingHint(RenderingHints.KEY_ANTIALIASING,
                         RenderingHints.VALUE_ANTIALIAS_ON);
//where g2d is a Graphics2D reference

Its ok i found some good resources to work off. Thanks!
