In this Java tutorial, you will learn how to draw ovals in Java graphics. Ovals are a common shape in many fields of study, and can often be used for logos or icons. To create an oval, begin by creating a new JFrame object. Next, use the setLayout() method to position the frame on the screen.
Finally, use the getGraphicsContext() method to obtain a graphics context object. With this object, you can begin drawing the oval. First, create an ellipse object and then use the fill() method to color it green. Next, use the setStroke() method to draw a border around the ellipse. Finally, use the moveTo() and drawOval() methods to place the oval within the ellipse.
