Really need help with this one.. (Clopping the image using drawImage)

[Lionlev]

Ok so I've created a little "game" when you can move and jump, and I used the drawImage like this:

g.drawImage(myImage,(int) Window.charX,(int) Window.charY,50,50,null);

That was a square image, no problems with that.
But then I've decided to make some animations, basically I've made one image (png) that stores few frames of the characters, and I tried to crop it like this:

g.drawImage(myImage,(int) Window.charX,(int) Window.charY,80,120, 0, 0, 40, 60, null);

Basically, the image gone crazy... When I jump, some part of it standing still and the other jumping (in another words, it's scaling)
So, how exactly do I use it?

not sure what type of image you use, but i use BufferedImage and then -> image.getSubImage(x,y,width,height);
this way i refer only to the frame i need

[Lionlev]

I use BufferedImage aswell
So that image.getSubImage(x,y,width,height); crops the image?

[arieltal]

yes.

[Lionlev]

yes.

Thanks, works like a charm!
