I have a Rectangle class for drawing to HTML Canvas. It has a rotation property that gets applied in its draw method. If the user drags within the canvas, a selection marquee is being drawn. How can I set the Rectangle's active attribute to true when the Rectangle is within the selection marquee using math? This is a problem I'm having in another language & context so I do not have all of Canvas' methods available to me there (e.g. isPointInPath).
I found a StackOverflow post about finding Mouse position within rotated rectangle in HTML5 Canvas, which I am implementing in the Rectangle method checkHit. It doesn't account for the selection marquee, however. It's just looking at the mouse X & Y, which is still off. The light blue dot is the origin around which the rectangle is being rotated. Please let me know if anything is unclear. Thank you.

constructor(x, y, width, height, rotation) {
this.x = x;
this.y = y;
this.height = height;

this.xOffset = this.x + this.width/2;
this.yOffset = this.y + ((this.y+this.height)/2);
this.rotation = rotation;
this.active = false;
}
checkHit()
{
// translate mouse point values to origin
let originX = this.xOffset;
let originY = this.yOffset;
let dx = marquee[2] - originX;
let dy = marquee[3] - originY;
// distance between the point and the center of the rectangle
let h1 = Math.sqrt(dx*dx + dy*dy);
let currA = Math.atan2(dy,dx);
// Angle of point rotated around origin of rectangle in opposition
let newA = currA - this.rotation;
// New position of mouse point when rotated
let x2 = Math.cos(newA) * h1;
let y2 = Math.sin(newA) * h1;
// Check relative to center of rectangle

Do convex polygons overlap
Rectangles are convex polygons.
Rectangle and marquee each have 4 points (corners) that define 4 edges (lines segments) connecting the points.
This solution works for all convex irregular polygons with 3 or more sides.
Points and edges must be sequential either Clockwise CW of Count Clockwise CCW
Test points
If any point of one poly is inside the other polygon then they must overlap. See example function isInside
To check if point is inside a polygon, get cross product of, edge start to the point as vector, and the edge as a vector.
If all cross products are >= 0 (to the left of) then there is overlap (for CW polygon). If polygon is CCW then if all cross products are <= 0 (to the right of) there is overlap.
It is possible to overlap without any points inside the other poly.
Test Edges
If any of the edges from one poly crosses any of the edges from the other then there must be overlap. The function doLinesIntercept returns true if two line segments intercept.
Complete test
Function isPolyOver(poly1, poly2) will return true if there is overlap of the two polys.
A polygon is defined by a set of Point's and Lines's connecting the points.
The polygon can be irregular, meaning that each edge can be any length > 0
Do not pass polygons with an edge of length === 0 or will not work.
Added
I added the function Rectangle.toPoints that transforms the rectangle and returning a set of 4 points (corners).

i drew a hexagon on canvas in html and i want to tranaslate the hexagon in canvas when i use a translate method it doesn't translate the hexagon but when i translate it does translate when i use the rectangle .
var canvas:HTMLCanvasElement = document.getElementById("myCanvas");
var context:CanvasRenderingContext2D = canvas.getContext("2d");
var x = 300;
var y = 100;
context.beginPath();
context.moveTo(x, y);
x = x + 120;
y = y + 100;
context.lineTo(x, y);
y = y + 120;
context.lineTo(x, y);
x = x - 125;
y = y + 100;
context.lineTo(x, y);
x = x - 125;
y = y - 100;
context.lineTo(x, y);
y = y - 120;
context.lineTo(x, y);
x = x + 130;
y = y - 100;
context.lineTo(x, y);
context.strokeStyle = "red";
context.lineWidth = 4;
context.fillStyle = "blue";
context.fill();
context.translate(400,400);
context.fillStyle = "blue";
context.fill();
context.save();
context.fillRect(10, 10, 100, 50);
context.translate(70, 70);
context.fillRect(10, 10, 100, 50);
Edit 1:
according to the #helder gave the answer I've made the changes but translate is not working
function hexagon(x:number, y:number, r:number, color:string) {
context.beginPath();
var angle = 0
for (var j = 0; j < 6; j++) {
var a = angle * Math.PI / 180
var xd = r * Math.sin(a)
var yd = r * Math.cos(a)
context.lineTo(x + xd, y + yd);
angle += 360 / 6
}
context.fillStyle = color;
context.fill();
context.translate(70,70);
context.fill();
}
hexagon(100, 100, 50, "red")
I would try to create a function that draws the hexagon that way you don't have to use translate.
See below
c = document.getElementById("canvas");
context = c.getContext("2d");
function hexagon(x, y, r, color) {
context.beginPath();
var angle = 0
for (var j = 0; j < 6; j++) {
var a = angle * Math.PI / 180
var xd = r * Math.sin(a)
var yd = r * Math.cos(a)
context.lineTo(x + xd, y + yd);
angle += 360 / 6
}
context.fillStyle = color;
context.fill();
}
hexagon(50, 50, 30, "red")
hexagon(40, 40, 10, "blue")
hexagon(60, 60, 10, "lime")
<canvas id=canvas >
Here is a break down of function hexagon(x, y, r, color)
it takes the center of the hexagon (x,y) a radius (r) and color
we loop over the six vertices and draw lines
the calculations are just a bit of trigonometry nothing fancy
With that we can draw hexagons at any location we want.
and that same function you can easily refactor to draw an octagon or other polygons.
Here is an animated version of those hexagons
c = document.getElementById("canvas");
context = c.getContext("2d");
delta = 0
function hexagon(x, y, r, color) {
context.beginPath();
var angle = 0
for (var j = 0; j < 6; j++) {
var a = angle * Math.PI / 180
var xd = r * Math.sin(a)
var yd = r * Math.cos(a)
context.lineTo(x + xd, y + yd);
angle += 360 / 6
}
context.fillStyle = color;
context.fill();
}
function draw() {
context.clearRect(0, 0, c.width, c.height)
var xd = 10 * Math.sin(delta)
var yd = 10 * Math.cos(delta)
hexagon(50 - xd, 50 - yd, 30, "red")
hexagon(40 + xd, 40 + yd, 10, "blue")
delta += 0.2
}
setInterval(draw, 100);

As you can see there is no need to use translate
I want to create Star Trail on canvas.

But. the quality is bad. Because the image size is static, blurry if the increment width is larger than actually image size, and the small stars is barely visible
I think, it's better to create it with multiple arc.
The idea is same, i have to draw multiple arc. But, i'm dummy, i made with two canvas, different angle each canvas. (It's actually same with my work before, but at the time, i use 1 image that have cutted circle). Because if i made it only on one canvas, the straight line appears. So, i draw multiple arc in each canvas. It works, and no straight line appears. (It's still basic arc)

It's not rotated yet.
So, if i want make circle trail, i have to rotate each arc randomly like i did before with image, but the problem is here. The straight lines come wickedly.

Is there any solution to remove that straight lines?
Not sure why you have the calls to moveTo and maybe I just didn't understand the question but I just moved beginPath and stroke inside the loops.

Also I don't understand why you have 2 canvases. It works fine with just one
var canvas = document.getElementById('canvas'),
ctx = canvas.getContext('2d');
var xy = 0;
var angle = new Array();
function minmaxdraw(min, max) {
return Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min + 1)) + min
}
function randomindeximage(l) {
return Math.floor(Math.random() * l)
}
function draw1() {
var xpos = canvas.width / 2;
var ypos = canvas.height / 2;
var r = 15,
ang = 0,
dx = 0,
dy = 0;
for (var i = 0; i < 55; i++) { //200 images
ang = minmaxdraw(0, 359);
dx = minmaxdraw(0, canvas.width), dy = minmaxdraw(0, canvas.height);
r += minmaxdraw(3, 7);
ang = Math.atan2(dx - xpos, dy - ypos);
angle[i] = ang;
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.arc(xpos, ypos, r, ang + 0 * Math.PI, ang + Math.PI * 1.5, true);
ctx.stroke();
}
}
function draw2() {
var xpos = canvas.width / 2;
var ypos = canvas.height / 2;
var r = 15;
for (var t = 0; t < 55; t++) {
r += minmaxdraw(3, 7);
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.arc(xpos, ypos, r, angle[t] + Math.PI / 2, angle[t] + Math.PI);
ctx.stroke();
}
}
draw1();
draw2();
<canvas id='canvas' class='canvas' width='640' height='480'></canvas>
The reason you got lines before is all arc does is add points.
arc is effectively this
// pseudo code
function arc(x, y, radius, start, end) {
const numSegments = 100; // no idea what number real arc uses here
for (let i = 0; i < numSegments; ++i) {
const angle = start + (end - start) * i / numSegments;
ctx.lineTo(Math.cos(angle) * radius, Math.sin(angle) * radius);
}
}
As you can see the code above just adds the points around the arc. So if you do a
ctx.moveTo(x, y);
ctx.arc(x, y, ...);
you're adding a point in the center of the arc and then more points to the edge. That's why you're getting a line from the centers to the edge of each arc.
If you wanted to leave the code the same as you had it and just stroke all the arcs at once then you'd need to change the moveTo to move to the edge of the arc instead of the center.
ctx.moveTo(x + Math.cos(start) * radius, y + Math.sin(start) * radius);
ctx.arc(x, y, radius, start, ...);
I am trying to create a shadow system for my 2D Game in a HTML5 Canvas. Right now, I am rendering my shadows like so:
function drawShadows(x, y, width) {
if (shadowSprite == null) {
shadowSprite = document.createElement('canvas');
var tmpCtx = shadowSprite.getContext('2d');
var shadowBlur = 20;
shadowSprite.width = shadowResolution;
shadowSprite.height = shadowResolution;
var grd = tmpCtx.createLinearGradient(-(shadowResolution / 4), 0,
shadowResolution, 0);
grd.addColorStop(0, "rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1)");
grd.addColorStop(1, "rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)");
tmpCtx.fillStyle = grd;
tmpCtx.shadowBlur = shadowBlur;
tmpCtx.shadowColor = "#000";
tmpCtx.fillRect(0, 0, shadowResolution, shadowResolution);
}
graph.save();
graph.rotate(sun.getDir(x, y));
graph.drawImage(shadowSprite, 0, -(width / 2), sun.getDist(x, y), width);
graph.restore();
}
This renders a cube with a linear gradient that fades from black to alpha 0.
This however does not produce a realistic result, since it will always be a rectangle. Here is an illustration to describe the problem:
Sorry i'm not very artistic. It would not be an issue to draw the trapezoid shape. (Seen in blue). The issue is that I still there to be a gradient. Is it possible to draw a shape like that with a gradient?
The canvas is very flexible. Almost anything is possible. This example draws the light being cast. But it can just as easily be the reverse. Draw the shadows as a gradient.
If you are after realism then instead of rendering a gradient for the lighting (or shadows) use the shape created to set a clipping area and then render a accurate lighting and shadow solution.
With lineTo and gradients you can create any shape and gradient you my wish. Also to get the best results use globalCompositeOperation as they have a large variety of filters.
The demo just shows how to mix a gradient and a shadow map. (Very basic no recursion implemented, and shadows are just approximations.)

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++) {
