How to set the border colour of a Line in FabricJS?
In this tutorial, we are going to learn about how to set the border colour of Line in 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 property borderColor allows us to manipulate the colour of the border when our object is active.
Syntax
new fabric.Line( points: Array, { borderColor: 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 borderColor is a property.
Options Keys
borderColor − This property accepts a String which specifies the colour of the border when our line object is selected. Its default value is rgb(178,204,255).
Passing borderColor key with a String value
Example
Let’s see a code example of how we can assign a value to the borderColor property. We have assigned the value “red” to the borderColor key which helps to create the red border on selection of our line object.

Passing a rgba value to the borderColor key
Example
Instead of passing simple colour names as a String, we can also use RGBA values, whose components specify the amount of Red, Green, Blue and Alpha, where alpha denotes the opacity. In this example we have used rgba(164,0, 0,1) which is the rgb value for the colour dark red.
