The background is transparent so the board shows through. When I try to use clearRect the screen gets set to the background color (grey) and hides the board.
I've tried setting the background color to a transparent alpha but that doesn't work.
Essentially, I need to be able to make a specified rectangle clear and be transparent so I can redraw the countdown.
If there is another way, that would be great too.

Graphics2D g = (Graphics2D) getGlassPane().getGraphics();
AttributedString styledText = new AttributedString(text);
styledText.addAttribute(TextAttribute.FAMILY, "serif");
styledText.addAttribute(TextAttribute.SIZE, new Float(120));
styledText.addAttribute(TextAttribute.FOREGROUND, Color.yellow);
AttributedCharacterIterator i = styledText.getIterator();
g.drawString(i, 80, 250);
