Question

I am having this error:

@Override
public void paint(Canvas canvas) {
}

The method paint(Canvas) of type MainActivity must override or implement a supertype method.
The error disappears only if I remove the @Override before the method.
I have already set in project properties java compiler on level 1.6

Can you help me?

Answer 1

If you are extending an Activity you can’t override the paint method.

Paint is not an Activity method. You can only override existent methods from the class you are extending.

Also I never used Paint. Did you want to override the onDraw(Canvas) from the View?
