How to rotate graphic object and have it stay at it's place?
































































































































































































































































I have a class DrawingPanel, extending JPanel and added to a JFrame.
































































































































































































































































































































































































Java Code:








































































































































































































































































import java.awt.*;
import java.util.*;
import javax.swing.*;

public class DrawingPanel extends JPanel {

public void paintComponent(Graphics g){

super.paintComponent(g);
Graphics2D g2d = (Graphics2D)g;

g2d.setFont(new Font("Arial",Font.BOLD,24));
g2d.drawString("A",250,250);
g2d.rotate(30 * Math.PI/180);
g2d.drawString("B",250,250);

}

}






































































































































































































































































"B" is not only rotated 30 degrees, but also apears in a far different location than "A".































































































































I think I understand why that is. It's because rotating and scaling means rotating and scaling the entire x and y system too, or something like that.
































































































































































































































































But my question is, how could I rotate a graphic object, and have it stay at the place that it "was" before I rotated it? (Or before I scaled it, got the same problem there).
































































































































































































































































Thanks :)
