Can't it be drawOval( int, double, int, int) ?

[Josep_16]

Hi there. I was trying to insert a decimal number as an Y coordinate, when while compiling it said me that drawOval() only accepts int parameters. So, does it mean that necessarily an applet can't draw something on a decimal number pixel, and only it can draw on integer number pixels? I mean, isn't there any way to draw something at pixel 12.5 or 20.3, using double parameters instead of integer ones? Thanks.

And where would that be rendered to the screen?

Approximations using anti-aliasing are possible with the Graphics2D API. See the class Ellipse2D.Double / Ellipse2D.Float and the Graphics2D methods setRenderingHints(...) and draw / fill (Shape).
