    class  Color
    The Color class is used to encapsulate colors in the default sRGB color space or colors in arbitrary color spaces identified by a ColorSpace.
    class  GradientPaint
    The GradientPaint class provides a way to fill a Shape with a linear color gradient pattern.
    class  LinearGradientPaint
    The LinearGradientPaint class provides a way to fill a Shape with a linear color gradient pattern.
    class  MultipleGradientPaint
    This is the superclass for Paints which use a multiple color gradient to fill in their raster.
    class  RadialGradientPaint
    The RadialGradientPaint class provides a way to fill a shape with a circular radial color gradient pattern.
    class  SystemColor
    A class to encapsulate symbolic colors representing the color of native GUI objects on a system.
    class  TexturePaint
    The TexturePaint class provides a way to fill a Shape with a texture that is specified as a BufferedImage.
  • Uses of Transparency in java.awt.image

    Classes in java.awt.image that implement Transparency 
    Modifier and Type Class Description
    class  BufferedImage
    The BufferedImage subclass describes an Image with an accessible buffer of image data.
    class  ColorModel
    The ColorModel abstract class encapsulates the methods for translating a pixel value to color components (for example, red, green, and blue) and an alpha component.
    class  ComponentColorModel
    A ColorModel class that works with pixel values that represent color and alpha information as separate samples and that store each sample in a separate data element.
    class  DirectColorModel
    The DirectColorModel class is a ColorModel class that works with pixel values that represent RGB color and alpha information as separate samples and that pack all samples for a single pixel into a single int, short, or byte quantity.
    class  IndexColorModel
    The IndexColorModel class is a ColorModel class that works with pixel values consisting of a single sample that is an index into a fixed colormap in the default sRGB color space.
    class  PackedColorModel
    The PackedColorModel class is an abstract ColorModel class that works with pixel values which represent color and alpha information as separate samples and which pack all samples for a single pixel into a single int, short, or byte quantity.
    class  VolatileImage
    VolatileImage is an image which can lose its contents at any time due to circumstances beyond the control of the application (e.g., situations caused by the operating system or by other applications).
