In this article, we are going to see how to set the selectionColor of a canvas Textbox using Fabric.js. The Textbox in Fabric.js is movable and can be stretched according to requirement. Further, the Textbox can be customized when it comes to initial stroke color, height, width, fill color, or stroke width.
To make it possible, we are going to use a JavaScript library called Fabric.js. After importing the library, we will create a canvas block in the body tag which will contain the Textbox. After this, we will initialize instances of Canvas and Textbox provided by Fabric.js, set the selection color of the Textbox using the selectionColor property and render the Textbox on the Canvas as given in the example below.
Syntax:
fabric.Textbox('text', {
selectionColor: string
});
Parameters: This function accepts a single parameter as mentioned above and described below:
- selectionColor: It specifies the color of the text selection.
Example: This example uses Fabric.js to change the selection text color of the Textbox.
HTML
<html> <head> <!-- Adding the FabricJS library --> <script src= </script> </head> <body> <h1 style="color: green;"> neveropen </h1> <h3> Fabric.js | Textbox selectionColor Property </h3> <canvas id="canvas" width="600" height="300" style="border:1px solid #000000"> </canvas> <script> // Initiate a Canvas instance var canvas = new fabric.Canvas("canvas"); // Create a new Textbox instance var text = new fabric.Textbox( 'A Computer Science Portal', { width: 500, selectionColor: "green" }); // Render the Textbox in canvas canvas.add(text); canvas.centerObject(text); </script> </body> </html> |
