class calling kinda problem

[Narutodono]

for (int i=0; i<5; i++)                // for loop for creating a background of tiles
{
  x=10; 
 
  Graphics g = canvas.getGraphics();           // call Tile to draw a tile
  Tile[] tile = new Tile[10];                  // intialise tile
  tile[i] = new Tile(1,x,y);             // a new tile for every i
  tile[i].Draw(g);                       // draw it
  x=x+50;                           //change x to move next square along    
}

this is supposed to create a line along the X axis of squares that is in thge class Tile but it only creates 1 the for loop worksand in theory the x should go 10 60 110 an have at least 3 squares but i dont know why it doesnt work any help is greatly appreciated.

You are initialising the tiles-array inside your loop, so you are initialising them 5 times! That makes no sense. You should put that line outside the loop and if you only want 5 squares (the counter "i" in the for-loop), you should set the array size to 5 and not 10!
Also methods start with lowercase, not uppercase, so you should use "Tile.draw()" instead of "Tile.Draw()".
Also x is reset every time to 10 at the beginning of the loop, but you want x to count up, so put it outside the loop! That's why you get all 5 tiles drawn exactly over each other, because the coordinates are the same in every loop.

Anyway, you don't need the array if you can forget the tile-object after drawing.
So what you want is probably following:

int x=10;
for (int i=0; i<5; i++) // for loop for creating a background of tiles
{
   Graphics g = canvas.getGraphics(); // call Tile to draw a tile
   Tile tile = new Tile(1, x, y); // a new tile for every i
   tile.draw(g); // draw it
   x += 50; // increase x-coordinate to move next square along 
}
 

By the way:
It is a very good programming style to make a comment after every line, as you did.
