Project 1: Paintin' & Animatin'

For Proj 1, you'll build on the Dots.java and DotsPanel.java programs (you may revert to the originals, or use your Project 1 as a foundation):

Add the ability to draw continuously while dragging; Add the ability to change the size of new dots by scrolling the mouse wheel up/down; Add animation using a Timer so that the dots all move when drawn.

Add an array for the colors of each dot, make each color random (for fun, use four ints from 0-255 instead of three, to give dots transparency), make each dot move at a different random speed (in x and y directions), and have the dots "bounce" appropriately off all four sides of the screen.

Add the ability to "group" dots whenever the mouse is dragged (hint: when pressed, remember that dot's speed x/y, then whenever dragging, use that speed x/y for all the 'dragged' dots...).

Add a 10 point slider that will act as a speed multiplier. So when you adjust the slider the current stored speed for the dot will increase by a factor of the current position of the slider.

Have the left click do one thing (e.g. "bubbles") and the right mouse click do another ("group").

Submit just the Java source code files from your project's 'src' folder. The files should contain the following lines of comments (or similar) at the top.
