What I have tried
The translate(W/2, H/2) should place the context at the center of the page, then this.ctx.rotate(-Math.PI/(180)) should rotate it one degree at a time. This is the part that is not working.
Using save()and restore() is the proper way to keep some parts of an animation static while others move. I placed the save and restore in different parts of the code to no avail. There are one of two types of result : Either a new entirely static image is produced, or some erratic animation happens (in the same vein of where it is now).
Here is the changed pen: http://codepen.io/samcarlinone/pen/LRwqNg
You needed a couple of changes:
var c = document.getElementById('canv');
var ctx = c.getContext('2d');
var W = c.width = window.innerWidth;
var H = c.height = window.innerHeight;
var angle = 0;
var Line = function() {
this.ctx = ctx;
this.startX = 0;
this.startY = 0;
this.endX = 0;
this.endY = 0;
this.direction = 0;
this.color = 'blue';
this.draw = function() {
this.ctx.beginPath();
this.ctx.lineWidth = .1;
this.ctx.strokeStlye = this.color;
this.ctx.moveTo(this.startX, this.startY);
this.ctx.lineTo(this.endX, this.endY);
this.ctx.closePath();
this.ctx.stroke();
}
this.update = function() {
//for fun
if (this.direction == 1) {
this.ctx.translate(W/2, H/2);
this.ctx.rotate(angle);
this.ctx.translate(-W/2, -H/2);
}
}//this.update()
}//Line();
objects=[];
function initLines() {
for (var i =0; i < 200; i++) {
var line = new Line();
line.direction = (i % 2);
if (line.direction == 0) {
line.startX = 0;
line.startY = -H + i * H/100;
line.endX = W + line.startX;
line.endY = H + line.startY;
}
if (line.direction == 1) {
line.startX = 0;
line.startY = H - i * H/100;
line.endX = W - line.startX;
line.endY = H - line.startY;
}
objects.push(line);
line.draw();
}
}
initLines();
function render(c) {
c.clearRect(0, 0, W, H);
for (var i = 0; i < objects.length; i++)
{
ctx.save();
objects[i].update();
objects[i].draw();
ctx.restore();
}
}
function loop() {
render(ctx);
window.requestAnimationFrame(loop);
angle += Math.PI/360;
}
loop();
First I added a variable to keep track of rotation and increment it in the loop
Second I save and restore for each individual line, alternatively if all lines were going to perform the same transformation you could move that code before and after the drawing loop
Third to get the desired affect I translate so the center point is in the middle of the screen, then I rotate so that the lines are rotated, then I translate back because all the lines have coordinates on the interval [0, H]. Instead of translating back before drawing another option would be to use coordinates on the interval [-(H/2), (H/2)] etc.

I'm trying to create an idle animation where the red rectangle moves back and forth slightly in a loop. For some reason once it reaches the specified threshhold instead of proceeding to move in the opposite direction, it just stops.
What did I do wrong?

#TheAmberlamps explained why it's doing that. Here I offer you a solution to achieve what I believe you are trying to do.
Use a velocity variable that changes magnitude. X position always increases by velocity value. Velocity changes directions at screen edges.
// use a velocity variable
var xspeed = 1;
// always increase by velocity
centerWidthPosition += xspeed;
// screen edges are 0 and 400 in this example
if (centerWidthPosition > 400 || centerWidthPosition < 0){
xspeed *= -1; // change velocity direction
}
I added another condition in your if that causes the object to bounce back and forth. Remove the selection after || if you don't want it doing that.
Your function is caught in a loop; once centerWidthPosition reaches 399 your conditional makes it increment back up to 400, and then it decrements back to 399.
here is another one as a brain teaser - how would go by making this animation bounce in the loop - basically turn text into particles and then reverse back to text and reverse back to particles and back to text and so on and on and on infinitely:

I am using a canvas with clickable elements that was added using for loop, I added a resizing event that redrawing the canvas after user window was resized, When the window is loading for the first time the canvas and click listeners works great, My problem starts after the window resizing, I getting wrong click coordinates and bad behavior, It looks the click event have sort of a backlog for all the times that the screen was resized
Here is the full code on stackblitz
The resize function
#HostListener('window:resize', ['$event'])
onResize(event) {
this.innerWidth = window.innerWidth;
this.innerHeight = window.innerHeight;
this.canvas.width = this.innerWidth;
this.canvas.height = this.innerHeight
this.cleardraw()
this.draw()
}
cleardraw(){
var ctx = this.canvas.getContext('2d');
ctx.clearRect(0, 0, this.innerWidth, this.innerHeight);
}
The draw function
draw() {
var ctx = this.canvas.getContext('2d');
ctx.font = "15px Arial";
var seats = []
var tempOrderArrey = []
var orderSeatsClinet = []
var selectedSeatsClient = []
var numberOfSeats = 10
var numberOfRows = 10
var canvasWidth = this.innerWidth
var canvasHight = this.innerHeight
function Seat(x, y, w, h, id, line, seatNum, color) {
this.x = x - 160
this.y = y ;
this.w = w;
this.h = h;
this.id = id;
this.line = line
this.seatNo = seatNum + 1 ;
this.color = color
}
Seat.prototype.draw = function () {
ctx.fillStyle = this.color
ctx.fillRect(this.x, this.y, this.w, this.h)
}
function drawAll() {
for (var i = 0; i < seats.length; i++) {
seats[i].draw();
}
}
var id = 1;
var xPad = canvasWidth / 30
function addSeats(value, ch) {
for (let i = 0; i <= 15; i++)
seats.push(new Seat( (canvasWidth / 3) + (i * xPad), value, canvasWidth/ 37, canvasWidth/ 37, id++, ch, i, "#998515"));
}
var start = 60, diff = canvasWidth/30, ch = 0;
for (let i = 0; i < 2; i++) {
//60 + (40 * i)
addSeats(start + (diff * i), ch++);
}
drawAll()
The click event function
this.renderer.listen(this.canvasRef.nativeElement, 'click', (event) => {
let cX = event.layerX;
let cY = event.layerY;
const offsetLeft = this.canvasRef.nativeElement.offsetLeft;
const offsetTop = this.canvasRef.nativeElement.offsetTop;
this.cX = cX - offsetLeft;
this.cY = cY - offsetTop;
for (var i = 0; i < seats.length; i++) {
var s = seats[i];
if (cX >= s.x && cX < s.x + s.w && cY >= s.y && cY < s.y + s.h) {
if (s.color == '#998515') { // If green
tempOrderArrey.push({ "id": s.id, "seatNum": s.seatNo, "rowNum": s.line })
s.color = '#ff0000'
ctx.fillStyle = '#ff0000'
ctx.fillRect(s.x, s.y, s.w, s.h)
}
else if (s.color == '#ff0000') { // If red
tempOrderArrey = tempOrderArrey.filter(seat => seat.id != s.id);
ctx.fillStyle = '#998515'
s.color = '#998515'
ctx.fillRect(s.x, s.y, s.w, s.h)
}
}
this.tempOrderArrey = tempOrderArrey
}})
}
The reason is that each time you resize, renderer.listen is called again, so for one click there are many events being fired.
You need to make sure that you clear the listener before creating a new one
// Check if the reference exists
if (this.reference != null) {
this.reference; // Clear the listener
}
// Store a reference to the listener
this.reference = this.renderer.listen(this.canvasRef.nativeElement, 'click', (event) => {
Here is a fork of the StackBlitz
I am experimenting with canvas in HTML and JS and attempting to draw a canvas of a chess board with 16 pieces on each side of it. I was able to create the chess board but am stuck on how I would draw just specifically the 16 pieces on each side (The pieces can just be circles so just one side with 16 red circles, one side with 16 blue circles).
I don't know why this is so confusing to me, I know you probably just need a for loop stopping at the specific coordinates but to get different colored pieces on each side as well as stopping at certain part is giving me trouble.
I would just like assistance on where in my code would I be placing the chess pieces in. If you could just modify my current code and place comments on where you made the changes so I could see then that would be very appreciated.
Here is what I have so far to make the checkers board:
<canvas id="canvas" width="300" height="300"></canvas>
function drawCheckeredBackground(can, nRow, nCol) {
var ctx = can.getContext("2d");
var w = can.width;
var h = can.height;
nRow = nRow || 8;
nCol = nCol || 8;
w /= nCol;
h /= nRow;
for (var i = 0; i < nRow; ++i) {
for (var j = 0, col = nCol / 2; j < col; ++j) {
ctx.rect(2 * j * w + (i % 2 ? 0 : w), i * h, w, h);
}
}
ctx.fill();
}
var canvas = document.getElementById("canvas");
drawCheckeredBackground(canvas);
Here is how I want the chess board to look like, with 16 pieces on each side like so. I just quickly made this example in paint:
https://i.imgur.com/BvbxzSZ.png
This isn't the most beautiful solution possible, but it should offer some basic ideas and is adjustable using your step variable idea. Chances are, you'll need to refactor when going for actual pieces.
const drawBoard = (ctx, step) => {
for (let i = 0; i < 8; i++) {
for (let j = 0; j < 8; j++) {
ctx.fillStyle = (i + j) & 1 ? "black" : "white";
ctx.fillRect(j * step, i * step, step, step);
}
}
};
const drawPieces = (ctx, y, color, step) => {
ctx.fillStyle = color;
for (let i = y; i < 2 * step + y; i += step) {
for (let j = step / 2; j < 8 * step; j += step) {
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.arc(j, i - step / 2, step / 3, 0, Math.PI * 2);
ctx.fill();
}
}
};
const step = 60;
const c = document.createElement("canvas");
c.height = c.width = step * 8;
document.body.appendChild(c);
const ctx = c.getContext("2d");
drawBoard(ctx, step);
drawPieces(ctx, step, "red", step);
drawPieces(ctx, step * 7, "blue", step);

I'm trying to understand how to add some physics like gravity and wind into my animations. I can't quite wrap my head around how to make this ball bounce as if it has gravity... each update I am accumulating the forces, applying it to the velocity, then clearing the forces. But the only way I can think to make it bounce back up is to change the Y direction..but then it just keeps going until it hits the top. Is there something obvious I'm missing? Any advice is appreciated. Thanks for reading

In kinematics, simple motion can sometimes be expressed as v(t) = aΔt where v is velocity at t seconds and aΔt is the acceleration times the interval Δt.
A way to simulate this could be to either calculate the ball.yVelocity component as (-someAcceleration) * someTimeIndex or to preform a function like
var ball.yVelocity = ball.yVelocity - someFactor each loop.
EDIT 1: I would also set up a separate variable likeyVelocityAbs in order to handle the magnitude of ball.yVelocity so as not to screw up your direction each time the ball bounces. Good luck!
EDIT 2: Try updating your clearForces() function like this:
this.clearForces = function(force) {
ball.xVelocity = 0;
//ball.yVelocity = 0;
}
It should work! Albeit a fairly janky representation, the simulation should fit better. I would suggest adding some functionality that resets the ball, though.
I want to click on one of the floating particles, upon clicking it, I want the particle colour to change from light grey to blue and then fade. Particle quantity is set as 100, as particles are clicked on to fade away particle quantity decreases. I'm unfamiliar with js, just started learning about canvas and particle systems yesterday, this is code from a pen that I've changed a bit and would like to add more changes to by adding the fade onclick event. I know that the particles within canvas are under one variable that defines them altogether, I don't know how to isolate one particle in the canvas to work with as I would need to know it's exact x,y coordinates.
Would I then have to find the coordinates for all 100 particles and add elements to each individual particle- and how do I do this?
