help with Graphics method

[The original stinger]

Hey, I'm looking for help with a Graphics methode.

I want a method to paint an image based on a number (int) value.

Something like this:

public void PaintImage(int value, Graphics g) {
Graphics2D g2 = (Graphics2D) g;
g2.drawImage(Images[value],780,10,null);
}

Images is a bufferedImage[].

the problem starts when I try to access this method from an other class.

Something like this doesn't work:

int pictogramValue = 1;
plaatserPictogram.PaintImage(pictogramValue,Graphi cs g);

why not? And what's the solution for this, so I can paint the right image on my canvas?

I don't really know what you're asking. If you want help, you should provide an SSCCE that demonstrates the problem.

Can you explain what happens? Post the full text of any error messages.

plaatserPictogram.PaintImage(pictogramValue,Graphics g);

That's not the way you invoke a method. Step back from graphics and GUI coding and first learn about Passing Information to a Method or a Constructor (The Java™ Tutorials > Learning the Java Language > Classes and Objects)
