How to hide the controlling corners of a Rectangle using FabricJS?
In this tutorial, we are going to learn how to hide the controlling corners of a Rectangle using FabricJS. Rectangle is one of the various shapes provided by FabricJS. In order to create a rectangle, we will have to create an instance of fabric.Rect class and add it to the canvas. The controlling corners of an object allow us to increase or decrease its scale, stretch or change its position.
We can customize our controlling corners in many ways such as adding a specific colour to it, changing its size, etc. We can also hide them using the hasControls property.
Syntax
new fabric.Rect({ hasControls: Boolean }: Object)Parameters
Options (optional) − This parameter is an Object which provides additional customizations to our rectangle. Using this parameter, properties such as colour, cursor, stroke width and a lot of other properties can be changed related to the object of which hasControls is a property.
Options Keys
hasControls − This property accepts a Boolean value that allows us to display or hide the controlling corners of an actively selected object. Its default value is true.
Example 1
Default appearance of controlling corners
Let’s see a code example that shows the default appearance of controlling corners. Since the default value of hasControls property is True, the controlling corners will not be hidden.

<!-- Adding the Fabric JS Library-->
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/fabric.js/510/fabric.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<h2>Default appearance of controlling corners</h2>
<p>Select the rectangle to see the default appearance of controlling corners</p>
<canvas id="canvas"></canvas>
<script>
// Initiate a canvas instance
var canvas = new fabric.Canvas("canvas");
canvas.setWidth(document.body.scrollWidth);
canvas.setHeight(250);
// Initiate a rectangle object
var rect = new fabric.Rect({
left: 125,
top: 90,
width: 170,
height: 70,
strokeWidth: 3,
stroke: "#4169e1",
fill: "grey",
padding: 15,
});
// Add it to the canvas
canvas.add(rect);
</script>
</body>
</html>Example 2
Passing hasControls as key and assigning it a False value
In this example, we will see how the controlling corners are hidden by using the hasControls property. We need to assign the hasControls key a False value. By doing that, the controlling corners will be hidden.
