How to draw a circle with given X and Y coordinates as the middle spot of the circle

Question

I have developed a telecommunication application for locating signal strengths from the towers  I have used java swing and I m having a problem when drawing the circle around the given point of the mobile signal transmitter tower location  I have already calculated the X  Y coordinates and also the radius value    Please find the below code which I ve used to draw the circle and it is having issues   JPanel panelBgImg   new JPanel         public void paintComponent Graphics g            g drawOval X  Y  r  r             The issue is  it creates the circle but it didn t take the X and Y coordinates as the center point  It took the X and Y coordinates as the top left point of the circle    Could anyone please help me to draw the circle by having the given X and Y coordinates as the center point of the circle

both answers are is incorrect  it should read   x- r  y- r    drawOval x y r 2 r 2

The fillOval fits an oval inside a rectangle  with width r  height   r you get a circle  If you want fillOval x y r r  to draw a circle with the center at  x y  you will have to displace the rectangle by half its width and half its height   public void drawCenteredCircle Graphics2D g  int x  int y  int r      x   x- r 2     y   y- r 2     g fillOval x y r r       This will draw a circle with center at x y

The only thing that worked for me   g drawOval  getWidth  -200  2  getHeight  -200  2  200  200

This draws an arc with the center in the specified rectangle  You can draw  half-circles  quarter-circles  etc   g drawArc x - r  y - r  r   2  r   2  0  360

Replace your draw line with  g drawOval X - r  Y - r  r  r    This should make the top-left of your circle the right place to make the center be  X Y   at least as long as the point  X - r Y - r  has both components in range

So we are all doing the same home work   Strange how the most up-voted answer is wrong  Remember  draw fillOval take height and width as parameters  not the radius  So to correctly draw and center a circle with user-provided x  y  and radius values you would do something like this   public static void drawCircle Graphics g  int x  int y  int radius       int diameter   radius   2       shift x and y by the radius of the circle in order to correctly center it   g fillOval x - radius  y - radius  diameter  diameter
