/*Composite01.java 12/12/99
 Copyright 1999, R.G.Baldwin
  
 Illustrates use of the AlphaComposite class to 
 achieve transparency with solid-fill colors.
  
 Draws a 4-inch by 4-inch Frame on the screen.
  
 Translates the origin to the center of the Frame.
  
 Draws a pair of X and Y-axes centered on the new 
 origin.
  
 Draw a big circle centered on the origin underneath
 all of the ellipses.
  
 Uses rotation and translation to fill three ellipses in
 each of the four quadrants.  The ellipses intersect
 at their center.  Each is rotated by 60 degrees
 relative to the one below it.  The order is:
   Red ellipse on the bottom
   Green ellipse in the middle
   Blue ellipse on the top
   
 TRANSPARENCY
 Upper-left quadrant
 No transparency
  
 Upper-right quadrant
 Red is not transparent
 Green is not transparent
 Blue is 50-percent transparent
  
 Lower-left quadrant
 Red is not transparent
 Green is 50-percent transparent
 Blue is 90-percent transparent
  
 Lower-right quadrant
 Red is not transparent
 Green is 90-percent transparent
 Blue is 90-percent transparent
   
  
 Whether the dimensions in inches come out right or
 not depends on whether the method 
 getScreenResolution() returns the correct
 resolution for your screen.
  
 Tested using JDK 1.2.2 under WinNT Workstation 4.0
