    <p>Suggestions:</p> <ul> <li>Read the Swing graphics tutorials to see the best ways to draw with Swing. You appear to be making a lot of your graphics code up, and this simply won't work. Go to the source and learn to do it right. Google will help you find these tutorials.</li> <li>For instance, you shouldn't draw directly on the JFrame.</li> <li>Instead draw in a JComponent's (such as a JPanel's) <code>paintComponent(...)</code> method.</li> <li>Avoid using KeyListeners but instead use Key Bindings.</li> <li>Use a Swing Timer for your animation loop.</li> <li>You can find many examples of this (including mine) on this site with a little searching. For example please have a look <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/a/6887354/522444">here</a>.</li> </ul> <p>Edit: your latest code attempts to do animation in a JFrame constructor which isn't going to work. As noted above, the GUI drawing must be in the <code>paintComponent(Graphics g)</code> override method of a JPanel or JComponent. Here you can use the Graphics object that the JVM passes into the <code>paintComponent(Graphics g)</code> method.</p>

    1. COIf this is about how the zorx1.java file is drawn with all those x's and y's all ridiculously, I received that code from the teacher and I'm guessing he made it hard to read like that on purpose. I suppose I should be rephrasing my question, but my problem is that I don't know how to use KeyListeners, bindings, or whatever and the examples that are usually around keep their graphics in the same class as the keylisteners and whatnot, which is something the teacher ordered us not to do. That is to say, we need to keep the aliens in separate .java files.

    2. CO@JackSnyder: I'm not sure which code is yours and which is your teachers, but the ugly guessing code I'm mainly talking about is that which is in your 2nd class, your Animation class which looks to be all over the place. If this is your teacher's code, quit the class. Regarding separation, I'd recommend that you keep your Key Bindings with your drawing class to start with, and then once you get it working, refactor the code to separate them into separate classes. This is called the [Tracer Bullet](http://www.artima.com/intv/tracer.html) method of programming.

    3. COWell, you were right about the ugly guessing part, because I really have no idea what I'm doing when it came down to basically anything there. The only things I knew what I was doing when I typed it in was the Zorx1.show(g); part. After that everything pretty much went to the wind. Anyways, when talking about the separation thing, I really have no idea how to do it because I don't know how to do this key bindings (or listening) thing so I'm already stuck on step 1.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
