Drawing on a Buffered Image
To draw on a buffered image, create a graphics context on the
buffered image.
If the buffered image supports transparency,
(see Determining If an Image Has Transparent Pixels),
pixels can be made transparent:
// Create a graphics context on the buffered image
Graphics2D g2d = bimage.createGraphics();
// Draw on the image
g2d.setColor(Color.red);
g2d.fill(new Ellipse2D.Float(0, 0, 200, 100));
g2d.dispose();
g2d = bimage.createGraphics();
// Make all filled pixels transparent
Color transparent = new Color(0, 0, 0, 0);
g2d.setColor(transparent);
g2d.setComposite(AlphaComposite.Src);
g2d.fill(new Rectangle2D.Float(20, 20, 100, 20));
g2d.dispose();
