How to set the border opacity of Rectangle while moving using FabricJS?
In this tutorial, we are going to set the border opacity of a Rectangle while moving 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.
We can change the opacity of a rectangle while moving it around in the canvas by using the borderOpacityWhenMoving property.
Syntax
new fabric.Rect({ borderOpacityWhenMoving: Number }: 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 borderOpacityWhenMoving is a property.
Options keys
borderOpacityWhenMoving − This property accepts a Number that specifies how opaque we want the borders to be while moving the rectangle around. It allows us to control the opacity of the borders while moving a rectangle object. The default value is 0.4.
Example 1
Displaying the default behaviour of borderOpacityWhenMoving property
Let’s see a code example that shows the default behaviour of boderOpacityWhenMoving property. When we select our rectangle object and move it around the canvas, the selection border changes its opacity from 1(fully opaque) to 0.4 which makes it look a bit translucent.

<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,
fill: "#cf1020",
padding: 9,
borderColor: "black",
});
// Add it to the canvas
canvas.add(rect);
</script>
</body>
</html>Example 2
Passing borderOpacityWhenMoving as key
Let’s see a code example to assign a value to the borderOpacityWhenMoving property. In this case, we have assigned the value as 0. It tells us that when we move our rectangle around, the border opacity will change to 0 and will not be visible.
