LibGDX ShapeRenderer circle drawing

Question

I have tried several solutions for drawing circles to generated coordinates. It is not working, but I do not know what is the problem with filledCircle method? How can I replace it?

Message:

FilledCircle cannot be resolved or is not a field

Code:

package com.example.game;

import com.badlogic.gdx.ApplicationAdapter;
import com.badlogic.gdx.Gdx;
import com.badlogic.gdx.graphics.Color;
import com.badlogic.gdx.graphics.GL20;
import com.badlogic.gdx.graphics.OrthographicCamera;
import com.badlogic.gdx.graphics.Texture;
import com.badlogic.gdx.graphics.g2d.Sprite;
import com.badlogic.gdx.graphics.g2d.SpriteBatch;
import com.badlogic.gdx.graphics.glutils.ShapeRenderer;
import com.badlogic.gdx.graphics.glutils.ShapeRenderer.ShapeType;

public class MainClass extends ApplicationAdapter {
SpriteBatch batch;
OrthographicCamera camera;
ShapeRenderer shapeRenderer;
private Sprite sprite;     

@Override
public void create () {
    shapeRenderer = new ShapeRenderer();
    batch = new SpriteBatch();
}

@Override
public void render () {

     Gdx.gl.glClearColor(1, 1, 1, 1);
     Gdx.gl.glClear(GL20.GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);

     Gdx.gl.glEnable(GL20.GL_BLEND);
     Gdx.gl.glBlendFunc(GL20.GL_SRC_ALPHA, GL20.GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA);
     Gdx.gl.glDisable(GL20.GL_BLEND);

      batch.setProjectionMatrix(camera.combined);

      batch.begin();
      batch.draw(sprite, 200, 200, 64, 64);
      shapeRenderer.begin(ShapeType.FilledCircle);
      shapeRenderer.filledCircle(50, 50, 32);
      shapeRenderer.setColor(Color.BLACK);
      shapeRenderer.end();
      batch.end();  
}


}

Answer 1

The method begin(ShapeRenderer.ShapeType type) accepts a ShapeType. There are 3 Shapetypes: Filled, Line and Point. There is no FilledCircle like you are using (that's what the error message says to you).

So, you should use shapeRenderer.begin(ShapeType.Filled);

Also, there is not filledCircle() method. Try shapeRenderer.circle(50, 50, 32);.

EDIT:

This is your code without some of the mistakes. You'll need to understand it and complete some parts, copy-paste won't do it.

@Override
public void create () {
    shapeRenderer = new ShapeRenderer();
    batch = new SpriteBatch();

    camera = new OrthographicCamera(300, 480); //FILL THE VALUES HERE
    sprite = new Sprite(new Texture(Gdx.files.internal("badlogic.jpg")));  //FILL THE VALUES HERE

     sprite.setBounds(200, 200, 64, 64);
}


@Override
public void render () {

     Gdx.gl.glClearColor(1, 1, 1, 1);
     Gdx.gl.glClear(GL20.GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);

     Gdx.gl.glEnable(GL20.GL_BLEND);
     Gdx.gl.glBlendFunc(GL20.GL_SRC_ALPHA, GL20.GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA);
     Gdx.gl.glDisable(GL20.GL_BLEND);

      batch.setProjectionMatrix(camera.combined);

      batch.begin();  
      sprite.draw(batch);  
      batch.end();

      shapeRenderer.setColor(Color.BLACK);
      shapeRenderer.begin(ShapeType.Filled);
      shapeRenderer.circle(50, 50, 32);
      shapeRenderer.end();
}
