how to make swing [sic] timer run faster?
I use swing [sic] timer to draw the animation, but it runs slowly.

Please provide code.

Best is to prepare a Simple, Self-Contained Compilable Example.

Unless you show us the code, here in the newsgroup, in an example that isol=
ates the issue, it can be difficult to diagnose your problem.

I would need to see how you're using the timer now to see what might be wro=
ng. It could be a concurrency issue, or you might be running other things o=
n the Event Dispatch Thread (EDT) that you shouldn't, there might be other =
demands on the system (e.g., from the video recording software), or you sim=
ply might not have enough computing power to run it faster.

The solutions for those issues, if any of them pertain, is to make your cod=
e thread-safe, take things off the EDT, shut down other software and servic=
es while you record your video, or use a faster computer, respectively.
