FabricJS β How to set the dash pattern of the controlling corners of a Line?
In this tutorial, we are going to learn about how to set the dash pattern of controlling corners 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. We can also specify a dash pattern for the controlling corners by using the cornerDashArray property.
Syntax
new fabric.Line( points: Array, { cornerDashArray: Array }: Object) Parameters
points β 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) β 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 cornerDashArray is a property.
Options Keys
cornerDashArray β This property accepts an Array which allows us to specify a dash pattern for the controlling corners. For example, if we pass an array with values [2,3], it means a dash pattern of 2px dash and 3px gap and repeating this pattern infinitely.
Default appearance of controlling corners
Example
Letβs see a code example that depicts the default appearance of the controlling corners of a line object. Since we have not used the cornerDashArray property, there is no dash pattern being displayed.
<!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 appearance of controlling corners</h2> <p>You can select the line object 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 Line object var line = new fabric.Line([200, 100, 100, 40], { stroke: "blue", strokeWidth: 20, }); // Add it to the canvas canvas.add(line); </script> </body> </html>
Passing cornerDashArray property as key
Example
In this example, we are passing the cornerDashArray property a value of [1,2,1]. This means that a dash pattern will be created such that there is a 1px long line, followed by a 2px gap, then again a 1px long line will be drawn and after which a 1px gap will be made and so on.
