Grapics =P

so ... i have a grapics class that paintsCompnent ...

my problem is this :

Code:

---

Font font = new Font("Helvetica", Font.BOLD,  14);


   
    public void paintComponent(Graphics g) {


        g.setFont(font);
        (DRAW STRINGS HERE)
}

---

so ... when i paint the text with setfont there is some delay...
and when i dont set the font its super fast ... (just outcommect the setFont).. I really want it set a font ... is there a reason for this delay? =P

thanks =)

Could post a small program the compiles and executes and demonstrates the problem?

Unless you are using multiple Font's in the paintComponent() method you should not be setting the Font there. You should just be using:

Code:

---

MyComponent component = new MyComponent();
component.setFont(...);

---

Then the Graphics object will already be set with the proper Font.
