How can I get stdlib.jar working in Intellij?

Question

After some hours of researching i still have a problem with my stdlib. I've imported lib just like it says on this link (https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/206850425-How-to-use-a-external-jar-in-a-Java-application) but it still not working. When I type StdDraw.setScale(-100, 100); set scale goes red and intellij says "can't resolve symbol". I'm adding some screenshots so you can see what's the problem. And ignore name of Java classes i'm SLovenian haha ;-)enter image description here

Thanks for your time!

The link you shared states there is a problem with package/class definition in stdlib.jar. — nickolay.laptev, Nov 29 '19 at 21:39
You can't import a class that is not located in a package. What is this stdlib jar you're talking about? Where does it come from? — JB Nizet, Nov 29 '19 at 21:49

If you tried with project structure > add libraries > stdlib.jar and not working consider this: I had the same problem and after a deep search I found the reason. You have to use a different stdlib.jar file. Download this stdlib-package and add import edu.princeton.cs.introcs.StdDraw;on the top of your .java file. (you can change StdDraw, Draw, StdIn, etc on top, your compiler will probably help you to import the right libraries)

OK I get it. Just import StdDraw class in src of your project and don't use a package. Then it starts to work fine.
