How to make a scrolling background for a JPanel in java?

How to make a scrolling background for a JPanel in java? I tried searching google but couldn't find a helpful one.

Do you mean manual scrolling, or something that scrolls by itself? And how would that affect any other controls that are in the panel?

I have a jpanel with an image as a background . how can i make that scroll like in a game ?

See this suggestion: java - Scrollable JPanel - Stack Overflow[^]. And this How to Use Scroll Panes (The Java™ Tutorials > Creating a GUI With JFC/Swing > Using Swing Components)[^]

Maybe a JPanel is not the right control to use. There are many game engines that you can use to do what you want. Take a look at Unity Real-Time Development Platform | 3D, 2D VR & AR Engine[^]

But I have seen many people making that using pure java. Sir please if it is not possiblie Please help me for this:- I am using this code to make an image the background of a jpanel -

@Override
protected void paintComponent(Graphics g) {

super.paintComponent(g);
    g.drawImage(bgImage, 0, 0, null);

}

Sir how can make the background a gif using this code. Sir please help me. I beg.

You need to try a few things, this is not a simple case of adding one component which will automatically do it. There is another suggestion at java - Making image scrollable in JFrame contentpane - Stack Overflow[^] but I have no idea if it will be exactly what you want.
