Your source code is not correct. Not a problem with textpad.

[BenjaminB]

(...)
layout.getDescent();
//getWidth() - xMessageWidth
float xLeft = 0.5F * (getWidth() - xMessageWidth);
float yTop = 0.5F * (getHeight() - yMessageHeight);
float yBase = yTop + layout.getAscent();
g2.drawString(message, xLeft, yBase);
}
}

There are too many brackets. The last "}" closes your class. That's why the compiler assumes the end of the file or another class.

And the following code is REALLY messy.

{
private Ellipse2D.Double circle;
private static final double CIRCLE_WIDTH = 400;
private static final double CIRCLE_HEIGHT = 200;
//private I commented out private changed to public
private MouseClickListener extends MouseAdapter
{

{
}

public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent event)
{ int mouseX = event.getX();
int mouseY = event.getY();

circle.setFrame(mouseX - CIRCLE_WIDTH/2, mouseY - CIRCLE_HEIGHT/2, CIRCLE_WIDTH, CIRCLE_HEIGHT);

repaint();
}

}
}

Do you have any idea about how to code Java? You wrote a method(?) without telling the compiler that you did so. (you forgot 'public void anything(anything)' or similar) And what is that supposed to do:

{

{
}

?
