How to set the background colour of Line in FabricJS?
In this tutorial, we are going to learn how to set the background colour of Line using FabricJS. A Line element is one of the basic elements provided in FabricJS. It is used for creating straight lines. Because line elements are geometrically one-dimensional and do not contain an interior, they are never filled. We can create a line object by creating an instance of fabric.Line, specifying the x and y coordinates of the line and adding it to the canvas. The backgroundColor property allows us to assign a colour to our object’s background.
Syntax
new fabric.Line( points: Array, { backgroundColor: String }: Object)
Parameters
points − This parameter accepts an Array of points which determines the (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) values, those being the x- and y-axis coordinates of the start and end of the line respectively.
options (optional) − This parameter is an Object which provides additional customizations to our object. Using this parameter origin, stroke width and a lot of other properties can be changed related to the object of which backgroundColor is a property.
Options Keys
backgroundColor − This property accepts a String value which determines the background colour.
Passing backgroundColor property as key with a hexadecimal value
Example
Let’s see a code example to assign a background colour to our Line object using hexadecimal value of colour. In this example, we have used the hex colour code #ffe4e1 which is a very light shade of red.

Passing backgroundColor property as key with a rgba value
Example
We can use a RGBA value, instead of a hexadecimal colour code, which stands for: red, green, blue and alpha. The alpha parameter specifies the opacity of a colour. In this example, we have used the rgba value (0,206,209,0.4) which is the colour dark turquoise with 0.4 opacity
