title: Drawing outside a window in Java?
body: <p>Is it possible to simply <code>paint()</code> (or use some other function) to the screen in Java?  As in draw over everything else on some coordinates of the screen itself, not inside some window.</p>
  
  <p>If not, is it possible to make an invisible window that takes up the entire screen and use its glass pane to do it?  Would complications arise from doing this?  (Such as not being able to click on other applications)</p>
  
  <p>Are there any other ways?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
  
  <p><strong>Edit:</strong>  I'm not trying to do full screen with this, by the way.</p>
