drawChars and onclick

[Robert Kennedy]

Hello,

Is it possible t o add an onclick handler (via a mask or directly to the text) to text rendered via drawChars.

if not how would i render a JLabel component at the precise coordinates as the drawChars woudl have rendered.

Thanks!

One possible way.
When you invoke drawChars, compute and store int bounds as a Rectangle.
Add a mouse listener to the container on which the chars are drawn
When the user clicks, check if the click was inside any of the rectangles
