We can create a Polygon object by creating an instance of fabric.Polygon. A polygon object can be characterized by any closed shape consisting of a set of connected straight line segments. Since it is one of the basic elements of FabricJS, we can also easily customize it by applying properties like angle, opacity etc. In order to convert a polygon object into HTMLCanvasElement we use the toCanvasElement method. It returns the DOM element of type HTMLCanvasElement, an interface which inherits its properties and methods from the HTMLElement interface. Syntax toCanvasElement( options: Object ): HTMLCanvasElement ...

We can create a Polygon object by creating an instance of fabric.Polygon. A polygon object can be characterized by any closed shape consisting of a set of connected straight-line segments. Since it is one of the basic elements of FabricJS, we can also easily customize it by applying properties like angle, opacity etc. We can check if the cache is dirty and the renderer is required by using the isCacheDirty method. This method checks whether the cache is dirty and thus lets FabricJS know that something in our canvas has changed which requires re-rendering. Syntax isCacheDirty(skipCanvas: ...
