How to set the style of controlling corners of a Rectangle using FabricJS?
In this tutorial, we are going to learn how to set the style of controlling corners of 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 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 change the style by using the cornerStyle property.
Syntax
new fabric.Rect({ cornerStyle: String }: 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 cornerStyle is a property.
Options keys
cornerStyle − This property accepts a String that allows us to specify the style of controlling corners that we want.
Example 1
Default style of controlling corners
Let’s see a code example that shows the default style of controlling corners.
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <!-- Adding the Fabric JS Library--> <script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/fabric.js/510/fabric.min.js"></script> </head> <body> <h2>Default style of controlling corners</h2> <p>Click on the rectangle to see the default style of its 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, fill: "#cf1020", borderColor: "black", borderScaleFactor: 3, cornerColor: "#3b7a57", }); // Add it to the canvas canvas.add(rect); </script> </body> </html>
Example
Passing cornerStyle as key with the value "circle"
We can specify the style or appearance of the controlling corners of an actively selected object by passing the values as "circle" or "rect". Passing the value as “circle” will make the controlling corners appear circular, as we have done in the example below:
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <!-- Adding the Fabric JS Library--> <script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/fabric.js/510/fabric.min.js"></script> </head> <body> <h2>Passing cornerStyle as key with the value "circle"</h2> <p>Click on the rectangle to see the circle style of its 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, fill: "#cf1020", borderColor: "black", borderScaleFactor: 3, cornerColor: "#3b7a57", cornerStyle: "circle", }); // Add it to the canvas canvas.add(rect); </script> </body> </html>
