Can Clipping can be rotated?
Thank you very much~~

#2

could you ask a more specific question? I have no idea what you’re asking ???

#3

Since any Shape can be used for clipping and you can rotate shapes, the answer must be yes.

Cheers,

Oh, thanks!
One more question, if I want to rotate, transform a clip, which method I should use?

#5

you could experiment with AffineTransform.


Shape clip = new Ellipse2D.Double(5, 5, 10, 10);
Graphics2D g2d = strategy.getDrawGraphics();
g2d.setClip(clip);
AffineTransform trans = new AffineTransform(scaleX, shearX, shearY, scaleY, xCoord, yCoord);
g2d.transform(trans);

//draw stuff

Experiment with that! If you need more info on what all those guys do, check the 1.4.2 JavaDoc
