when should I call super.paint?

807580Jul 26 2009 — edited Nov 25 2009
Hello!

I have several questions on overriding public void paint(Graphics g) from applet, because I want to draw some lines on the applet panel that contains buttons and that stuff:
1- should I call super.paint(g) in order to have the components updated or will override function only work for painting the applet panel?
2- Is that the same for Applet and JApplet?
3- when should I call super.paint from overriden paint()?

Thanks!
