i have tried this,
public drawNumbers(ctx, x1, y1, length, count) {
let angle = 0;
for (let i = 0; i <= count; i++ ) {
angle += 2 * Math.PI / (count );
const x2 = x1 + length * Math.cos(angle),
y2 = y1 + length * Math.sin(angle);
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.fillRect(x2, y2, 10, 20);
ctx.stroke();
}
}
this.canvas.drawNumbers(ctx, this.midX, this.midY, 160, 60);
output:
expected result:
i want to calculate a four coordinate(rectangle) of rotated axis.
How do i detect click event on each rectangle?
Using setTransform
Salix alba answer is a solution though a few too many steps.
It can be done in a single transform using setTransform and applying the translate and rotations in one step. Also the second translation is where you draw the box relative to its origin. When using transforms always draw objects around the center of rotation.
ctx.strokeRect(-10,-10,20,20); // rotation is always around 0,0
const ctx = canvas.getContext("2d");
const centerX = 250;
const centerY = 250;
const radius = 200;
const boxWidth = 10;
const bobLength = 20;
// draw boxs around circle center at cx,cy and radius rad
// box width bw, and box height bh
// spacing optional is the distance between boxes
function drawCircleOfBoxes(cx,cy,rad,bw,bh,spacing = 5){
var steps = ((rad - bw /2) * Math.PI * 2) / (bw + spacing) | 0; // get number boxes that will fit circle
ctx.beginPath();
for(var i = 0; i < steps; i ++){
const ang = (i / steps) * Math.PI * 2;
var xAxisX = Math.cos(ang); // get the direction of he xAxis
var xAxisY = Math.sin(ang);
// set the transform to circle center x Axis out towards box
// y axis at 90 deg to x axis
ctx.setTransform(xAxisX, xAxisY, -xAxisY, xAxisX, cx, cy);
// draw box offset from the center so its center is distance radius
ctx.rect(rad - bh / 2, -bw / 2, bh, bw);
}
ctx.fill();
ctx.stroke();
ctx.setTransform(1,0,0,1,0,0); // reset transform
}
ctx.fillStyle = "#FCD";
ctx.strokeStyle = "#000";
drawCircleOfBoxes(centerX, centerY, radius, boxWidth, bobLength);
<canvas id="canvas" width="500" height="500"></canvas>
Manually apply the transform to a point
If you wish to transform the box in code you can use the transform applied in the above and apply it directly to a set of points. You can not apply it to the ctx.rect function that needs the API transform.
To transform a point px,py you need the the direction of the rotated x axis
const xAx = Math.cos(dirOfXAxis);
const xAy = Math.sin(dirOfXAxis);
You can then move the point px distance along the xAxis and then turn 90 deg and move py distance along the y axis
var x = px * xAx; // move px dist along x axis
var y = px * xAy;
x += py * -xAy; // move px dist along y axis
y += py * xAx;
Then just add the translation
x += translateX;
y += translateY;
Or done in one go
var x = px * xAx - py * xAy + translateX; // move px dist along x axis
var y = px * xAy + py * xAx + translateY;
The snippet shows it in action
const ctx = canvas.getContext("2d");
const centerX = 250;
const centerY = 250;
const radius = 200;
const boxWidth = 10;
const boxLength = 20;
// draw boxs around circle center at cx,cy and radius rad
// box width bw, and box height bh
// spacing optional is the distance between boxes
function drawCircleOfBoxes(cx,cy,rad,bw,bh,spacing = 5){
var points = [ // setout points of box with coord (0,0) as center
{x : bh / 2, y : -bw / 2},
{x : bh / 2 + bh, y : -bw / 2},
{x : bh / 2 + bh, y : -bw / 2 + bw},
{x : bh / 2, y : -bw / 2 + bw},
];
var steps = (((rad - bw /2) * Math.PI * 2) / (bw + spacing) )+ 4| 0; // get number boxes that will fit circle
ctx.beginPath();
for(var i = 0; i < steps; i ++){
const ang = (i / steps) * Math.PI * 2;
const xAx = Math.cos(ang); // get the direction of he xAxis
const xAy = Math.sin(ang);
var first = true
for(const p of points){ // for each point
// Apply the transform to the point after moving it
// to the circle (the p.x + rad)
const x = (p.x + rad) * xAx - p.y * xAy + cx;
const y = (p.x + rad) * xAy + p.y * xAx + cy;
if(first){
ctx.moveTo(x,y);
first = false;
}else{
ctx.lineTo(x,y);
}
}
ctx.closePath();
}
ctx.fill();
ctx.stroke();
}
ctx.fillStyle = "#CFD";
ctx.strokeStyle = "#000";
for(var i = boxLength + 5; i < radius; i += boxLength + 5){
drawCircleOfBoxes(centerX, centerY, i , boxWidth, boxLength);
}

To get rotated rectangles you need to use the transform() method of the graphics context.
Imagine a set of axis at the top left of the drawing area. Any drawing will be done relative to these axis which we can move with transform.
To translate by xshift, yshift
ctx.transform(1,0,0,1, xshift, yshift);
ctx.fillRect(0,0,100,100);
To rotate by angle ang in radians
ctx.transform(Math.cos(ang),Math.sin(ang),
-Math.sin(ang),Math.cos(ang), 0,0);
We can combine things with three transformations. The first moves the origin to the center of the circle. Then rotate the axes about this point,
then shift the axes to where you want the shape to appear. Finally, draw the shape.
for(deg = 0; deg < 360; deg+=20) {
ctx.setTransform(1,0,0,1,0,0); // reset transformation
ang = deg * Math.PI/180;
ctx.transform(1,0,0,1,100,100); // shift origin
ctx.transform(Math.cos(ang),Math.sin(ang),
-Math.sin(ang),Math.cos(ang), 0,0);
ctx.transform(1,0,0,1,50,0);
ctx.fillRect(0,0,30,10);
}
You can achieve the same this using the translate and rotate
for(deg = 0; deg < 360; deg+=20) {
ctx.setTransform(1,0,0,1,0,0); // reset transformation
ang = deg * Math.PI/180;
ctx.translate(100,100); // shift origin
ctx.rotate(ang);
ctx.translate(50,0);
ctx.fillRect(0,0,30,10);
}

How to draw this pattern in canvas using svg or 2d,3d method. If any third party library that also Ok for me.
I don't know where to start and how to draw this complex pattern.
some one please help me to draw this pattern with rectangle fill with dynamic color on canvas.
Here is a sample of the output I need: (herringbone pattern)
I tried something similar using fabric.js library here is my JSFiddle
Trippy disco flooring
To get the pattern you need to draw rectangles one horizontal tiled one space left or right for each row down and the same for the vertical rectangle.
The rectangle has an aspect of width 2 time height.
Drawing the pattern is simple.
Rotating is easy as well the harder part is finding where to draw the tiles for the rotation.
To do that I create a inverse matrix of the rotation (it reverses a rotation). I then apply that rotation to the 4 corners of the canvas 0,0, width,0 width,height and 0,height this gives me 4 points in the rotated space that are at the edges of the canvas.
As I draw the tiles from left to right top to bottom I find the min corners for the top left, and the max corners for the bottom right, expand it out a little so I dont miss any pixels and draw the tiles with a transformation set the the rotation.
As I could not workout what angle you wanted it at the function will draw it at any angle. On is animated, the other is at 60deg clockwise.

The best way to approach this is to examine the pattern and analyse its symmetry and how it repeats.
You can look at this several ways. For example, you could rotate the patter 45 degrees so that the tiles are plain orthogonal rectangles. But let's just look at it how it is. I am going to assume you are happy with it with 45deg tiles.
Like the tiles themselves, it turns out the pattern has a 2:1 ratio. If we repeat this pattern horizontally and vertically, we can fill the canvas with the completed pattern.
We can see there are five tiles that overlap with our pattern block. However we don't need to draw them all when we draw each pattern block. We can take advantage of the fact that blocks are repeated, and we can leave the drawing of some tiles to later rows and columns.
Let's assume we are drawing the pattern blocks from left to right and top to bottom. Which tiles do we need to draw, at a minimum, to ensure this pattern block gets completely drawn (taking into account adjacent pattern blocks)?
Since we will be starting at the top left (and moving right and downwards), we'll need to draw tile 2. That's because that tile won't get drawn by either the block below us, or the block to the right of us. The same applies to tile 3.
It turns out those two are all we'll need to draw for each pattern block. Tile 1 and 4 will be drawn when the pattern block below us draws their tile 2 and 3 respectively. Tile 5 will be drawn when the pattern block to the south-east of us draws their tile 1.
We just need to remember that we may need to draw an extra column on the right-hand side, and at the bottom, to ensure those end-of-row and end-of-column pattern blocks get completely drawn.
The last thing to work out is how big our pattern blocks are.
Let's call the short side of the tile a and the long side b. We know that b = 2 * a. And we can work out, using Pythagoras Theorem, that the height of the pattern block will be:
h = sqrt(a^2 + a^2)
= sqrt(2 * a^2)
= sqrt(2) * a
The width of the pattern block we can see will be w = 2 * h.
Now that we've worked out how to draw the pattern, let's implement our algorithm.
const a = 60;
const b = 120;
const h = 50 * Math.sqrt(2);
const w = h * 2;
const h2 = h / 2; // How far tile 1 sticks out to the left of the pattern block
// Set of colours for the tiles
const colours = ["red","cornsilk","black","limegreen","deepskyblue",
"mediumorchid", "lightgrey", "grey"]
const canvas = document.getElementById("herringbone");
const ctx = canvas.getContext("2d");
// Set a universal stroke colour and width
ctx.strokeStyle = "black";
ctx.lineWidth = 4;
// Loop through the pattern block rows
for (var y=0; y < (canvas.height + h); y+=h)
{
// Loop through the pattern block columns
for (var x=0; x < (canvas.width + w); x+=w)
{
// Draw tile "2"
// I'm just going to draw a path for simplicity, rather than
// worrying about drawing a rectangle with rotation and translates
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.moveTo(x - h2, y - h2);
ctx.lineTo(x, y - h);
ctx.lineTo(x + h, y);
ctx.lineTo(x + h2, y + h2);
ctx.closePath();
ctx.fillStyle = colours[Math.floor(Math.random() * colours.length)];
ctx.fill();
ctx.stroke();
// Draw tile "3"

ctx.moveTo(x + h2, y + h2);
ctx.lineTo(x + w - h2, y - h2);
ctx.lineTo(x + w, y);
ctx.lineTo(x + h, y + h);
ctx.closePath();
ctx.fillStyle = colours[Math.floor(Math.random() * colours.length)];
ctx.fill();

I'm making a drawing app with html5 canvas.
User can draw ellipses and select both line color and fill color.

When selected color is not transparent, it works fine.
But when transparent color is selected and border line width is thick, there are problems.(Q1 and Q2)

I'm using drawEllipse() method from below.
the relation of the bezier Curve and ellipse?
Does anyone solve this problems?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
[Q1]
When the lineWidth is larger than the ellipse's width, there is a strange blank in the ellipse, and lineWidth is strangely thin.
Internet Explorer works fine, but both Firefox and Safari web browsers have this problem.
How can I change the blank area to be blue?
[Q2]
I'm using transparent colors and I want to draw the ellipse with 2 colors.
(stroke is blue and fill is red)
But the stroke color and the fill color are mixed and there is magenta area in the ellipse.
How can I draw the ellipse with 2 colors?
(I want to change the magenta area to blue)
One time fill is preferred when possible.

Both problems are caused by the fact that multiple strokes/fills of semi-transparent colors over an area will cause that area to become a blend of colors (much like an artist blends multiple colors).
You can resolve both problems by converting semi-transparent colors into opaque colors:
function RGBAtoRGB(r, g, b, a, backgroundR,backgroundG,backgroundB){
var r3 = Math.round(((1 - a) * backgroundR) + (a * r))
var g3 = Math.round(((1 - a) * backgroundG) + (a * g))
var b3 = Math.round(((1 - a) * backgroundB) + (a * b))
return "rgb("+r3+","+g3+","+b3+")";
}
// convert 50%-red foreground fill + 100% black background into opaque (=="red-brownish")
ctx.fillStyle = RGBAtoRGB(255,0,0,0.50, 0,0,0,1); // "rgba(255,0,0,0.5)";
// convert 50%-blue foreground stroke + 100% black background into opaque (=="blueish")
ctx.strokeStyle = RGBAtoRGB(0,0,255,0.50, 0,0,0,1); // "rgba(0,0,255,0.5)";
Example code refactored to use opaque fills & strokes:
ellipse_test();
// this method is from
// http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14169234/the-relation-of-the-bezier-curve-and-ellipse
function _drawEllipse(ctx, x, y, w, h) {

var width_two_thirds = w * 2 / 3;
var height_over_2 = h / 2;
ctx.beginPath();

Overlapping
...And obviously if you draw your ellipses very close together they will eventually overlap. That's what's causing your Q1-line thinning.
I created a canvas and a circle on the canvas.
I'm trying to make random dots inside the circle by using the solution here but dots are being placed inside and outside the circle as well.
here's my code from the moment I create the circle:
draw_circle(600, 600, 500);
for (i = 0; i < 20; i++) {
radius = 500;
y = 0;
x = 0;
y = -radius + Math.random() * (radius + radius + 1);
// x must respect x² + y² < r²
xMax = Math.pow(Math.pow(radius, 2) - Math.pow(y, 2), 0.5);
x = Math.random() * 2 * xMax - xMax;
draw_circle(x, y, 3);
}
and this is my draw_circle function:
function draw_circle(x, y, r) {
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.arc(x, y, r, 0, Math.PI * 2);
ctx.stroke();
}
The problem is that you are drawing your circle centred at (600,600), but you are drawing your dots centred at (0,0).
Try:
draw_circle(x+600, y+600, 3);

An old old question... nevertheless, on my blog, I take a fairly close look at creating circular text using HTML5 Canvas:
html5graphics.blogspot.com
In the example, options include rounded text alignment (left, center and right) from a given angle, inward and outward facing text, kerning (adjustable gap between characters) and text inside or outside the radius.
There is also a jsfiddle with a working example.
It is as follows:
document.body.appendChild(getCircularText("ROUNDED TEXT LOOKS BEST IN CAPS!", 250, 0, "center", true, true, "Arial", "18pt", 0));
function getCircularText(text, diameter, startAngle, align, textInside, inwardFacing, fName, fSize, kerning) {
// text: The text to be displayed in circular fashion
// diameter: The diameter of the circle around which the text will
// be displayed (inside or outside)
// startAngle: In degrees, Where the text will be shown. 0 degrees
// if the top of the circle
// align: Positions text to left right or center of startAngle
// textInside: true to show inside the diameter. False draws outside
// inwardFacing: true for base of text facing inward. false for outward
// fName: name of font family. Make sure it is loaded
// fSize: size of font family. Don't forget to include units
// kearning: 0 for normal gap between letters. positive or
// negative number to expand/compact gap in pixels
//------------------------------------------------------------------------
// declare and intialize canvas, reference, and useful variables
align = align.toLowerCase();
var mainCanvas = document.createElement('canvas');
var ctxRef = mainCanvas.getContext('2d');
var clockwise = align == "right" ? 1 : -1; // draw clockwise for aligned right. Else Anticlockwise
startAngle = startAngle * (Math.PI / 180); // convert to radians
// calculate height of the font. Many ways to do this
// you can replace with your own!
var div = document.createElement("div");
div.innerHTML = text;
div.style.position = 'absolute';
div.style.top = '-10000px';
div.style.left = '-10000px';
div.style.fontFamily = fName;
div.style.fontSize = fSize;
document.body.appendChild(div);
var textHeight = div.offsetHeight;
document.body.removeChild(div);
// in cases where we are drawing outside diameter,
// expand diameter to handle it
if (!textInside) diameter += textHeight * 2;
mainCanvas.width = diameter;
mainCanvas.height = diameter;
// omit next line for transparent background
mainCanvas.style.backgroundColor = 'lightgray';
ctxRef.font = fSize + ' ' + fName;
// Reverse letter order for align Left inward, align right outward
// and align center inward.
if (((["left", "center"].indexOf(align) > -1) && inwardFacing) || (align == "right" && !inwardFacing)) text = text.split("").reverse().join("");
// Setup letters and positioning
ctxRef.translate(diameter / 2, diameter / 2); // Move to center
startAngle += (Math.PI * !inwardFacing); // Rotate 180 if outward
ctxRef.textBaseline = 'middle'; // Ensure we draw in exact center
ctxRef.textAlign = 'center'; // Ensure we draw in exact center
// rotate 50% of total angle for center alignment
if (align == "center") {
for (var j = 0; j < text.length; j++) {
var charWid = ctxRef.measureText(text[j]).width;
startAngle += ((charWid + (j == text.length-1 ? 0 : kerning)) / (diameter / 2 - textHeight)) / 2 * -clockwise;
}
}
// Phew... now rotate into final start position
ctxRef.rotate(startAngle);
// Now for the fun bit: draw, rotate, and repeat
for (var j = 0; j < text.length; j++) {
var charWid = ctxRef.measureText(text[j]).width; // half letter
ctxRef.rotate((charWid/2) / (diameter / 2 - textHeight) * clockwise); // rotate half letter
// draw char at "top" if inward facing or "bottom" if outward
ctxRef.fillText(text[j], 0, (inwardFacing ? 1 : -1) * (0 - diameter / 2 + textHeight / 2));
ctxRef.rotate((charWid/2 + kerning) / (diameter / 2 - textHeight) * clockwise); // rotate half letter
}
// Return it
return (mainCanvas);
}
You can try the following code to see how to write text along an Arc Path using HTML5 Canvas
function drawTextAlongArc(context, str, centerX, centerY, radius, angle) {
var len = str.length,
s;
context.save();
context.translate(centerX, centerY);
context.rotate(-1 * angle / 2);
context.rotate(-1 * (angle / len) / 2);
for (var n = 0; n < len; n++) {
context.rotate(angle / len);
context.save();
context.translate(0, -1 * radius);
s = str[n];
context.fillText(s, 0, 0);
context.restore();
}
context.restore();
}
var canvas = document.getElementById('myCanvas'),
context = canvas.getContext('2d'),
centerX = canvas.width / 2,
centerY = canvas.height - 30,
angle = Math.PI * 0.8,
radius = 150;
context.font = '30pt Calibri';
context.textAlign = 'center';
context.fillStyle = 'blue';
context.strokeStyle = 'blue';
context.lineWidth = 4;
drawTextAlongArc(context, 'Text along arc path', centerX, centerY, radius, angle);
// draw circle underneath text
context.arc(centerX, centerY, radius - 10, 0, 2 * Math.PI, false);
context.stroke();

You can't in any built in way. Please note that SVG natively does support text along paths, so you might want to consider SVG instead!
But you can write custom code in order to achieve the same effect, as some of us did for this question here: HTML5 Canvas Circle Text
