Adding Background

Question

I have made a stand-alone app using JPanel and want to add a Image (tiled), instead of color, as a background. Can someone help me pse.

Answer 1

create a custom JPanel, e.g.
public class BackgroundJPanel extends JPanel {
     Image backImage;
     public BackgroundJPanel() {
         super();
         //load the image
      public void paint(Graphics g) {
           //g.drawImage(image, ....)
           //If you want to tile the image, repeat the image many times
}Now, you can use this class instead of JPanel
