Best way for animation?

I don't know if this will do the trick, but have you ever tried switching these

repaint();
thread.sleep(50);

to

thread.sleep(50);
repaint();

I think you can solve your problem by doing so, because if you created a loop

for(int i = 0; i < 1000; i++){
  repaint();
}

repaint() would of course be called 1000 times, but the AWT paint system will collapse these 1000 calls, to a few calls, maybe just call paint() once.
The paint system will paint when it's in an apropiate state, and it can't get ready that fast.

Well - I'm just gueessing !

Hello Carsten!

Thanks for your reply. I tried to switch the lines but I got it more worse strangely, cause I agree with what you said.

I change all the members to private and that might have sligtly improved it but it is hard to see with your eyes.

Best regards

BTW pleas give Svar so I can award you at the end.
