Hi, what I have to do to paint a border around an ellipse and not around the
rectangle which contains the ellipse?

Thanks!

I know, that this thread is very old, but i need a border around an ellipse-figure too.

Is it possible to modify a SimpleRaisedBorder, so that it works with an ellipse?

Regards,

Martin

Hi,

Of course you can. You should override the paint method coming from
SchemeBorder class and draw an oval instead of drawing lines to represent
a rectangle which size are excatly the bounds of the ellipse.

You can also override the outlineShape method of the Ellipse class to draw
your own border.

You should be aware that it quite be quite difficult to draw a nice
border. May be you ll have to draw it sometimes using the drawpoint method
of graphics class ...

Hope this can help you

Manu

Hey thanks,

overriding the outlineshape(Graphic) method was a very good idea.
