How to set the width of stroke of Rectangle using FabricJS?
In this tutorial, we are going to learn how to set the width of stroke of a 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 strokeWidth property allows us to specify the width of a stroke for an object.
Syntax
new fabric.Rect( { strokeWidth: 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 strokeWidth is a property.
Options keys
strokeWidth − This property accepts a Number which allows us to specify the width of a stroke for an object. Its default value is 1.
Example 1
Default appearance of an object’s stroke
Let’s see a code example that depicts the default appearance of the stroke of a rectangle object. Since we have not used the strokeWidth property, the default width is being rendered.
<!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 an object’s stroke</h2> <p>You can see the default object width of the stroke around the rectangle.</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: 55, top: 70, width: 170, height: 70, fill: "#f4f0ec", stroke: "#2a52be", }); // Add it to the canvas canvas.add(rect); </script> </body> </html>
Example 2
Passing strokeWidth property as key
In this example, we are passing the strokeWidth property a value of 5. This will make sure that our rectangle object is rendered with a stroke that has a width of 5 pixels.
<!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 strokeWidth property as key</h2> <p>You can now see that the stroke width is 5px wide around the rectangle.</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: 55, top: 70, width: 170, height: 70, fill: "#f4f0ec", stroke: "#2a52be", strokeWidth: 5, }); // Add it to the canvas canvas.add(rect); </script> </body> </html>
