I am having a problem with drawing and rotating image on my canvas. Basically, my approach is to create the wheel of fortune which allows customization based on the prizes in form of array. The data in this array makes up the segment inside the wheel based on the number of indexes.
The data is very simple. It is just a simple JSON object like this
var prizes = [
{product:"Axe FX", img: "https://mdn.mozillademos.org/files/5395/backdrop.png"},
{product:"Musicman JPX", img: "https://mdn.mozillademos.org/files/5395/backdrop.png"},
{product:"Ibanez JEM777V", img: "https://mdn.mozillademos.org/files/5395/backdrop.png"}
];
This data is used to create the segments inside the wheel. So I want to place the text which is currently working like a charm for me.
When drawing the wheel, I separate into two main functions. One to draw the wheel and another to draw the segments inside the wheel.
var drawPartial = function(key, lastAngle, angle) {
var value = prizes[key].product;
ctx.save();
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.lineWidth = 6;
ctx.fillStyle = segColors[key];
ctx.moveTo(centerX, centerY);
ctx.arc(centerX, centerY, size, lastAngle, angle);
ctx.lineTo(centerX, centerY);
ctx.closePath();
ctx.stroke();
ctx.fill();
ctx.save();
ctx.translate(centerX, centerY);
ctx.rotate((lastAngle+angle) / 2);
ctx.fillStyle = "#000";
ctx.fillText(value.substr(0,20), size / 2 + 20, 0);
ctx.restore();
ctx.restore();
}
var draw = function() {
var len = prizes.length;
var currentAngle = outCurrentAngle;
var lastAngle = currentAngle;
ctx.strokeStyle = '#000000';
ctx.textBaseline = "middle";
ctx.textAlign = "center";
ctx.font = "1.4em Arial";
for(var i = 1; i <= len; i++) {
var angle = (Math.PI*2) * (i/len) + currentAngle;
drawPartial(i-1, lastAngle, angle);
lastAngle = angle;
}
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.lineWidth = 2;
ctx.fillStyle = "#fff";
ctx.moveTo(centerX, centerY);
ctx.arc(centerX, centerY, size/7, 0, Math.PI*2);
ctx.closePath();
// ctx.stroke();
ctx.fill();
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.lineWidth = 10;
ctx.arc(centerX, centerY, size, 0, Math.PI*2);
ctx.closePath();
// ctx.stroke();
}
With the code above, I just simple call the draw() function and the wheel and all segments will be created accordingly. However, I want to draw the image in each segment but I don't know to make it work. This is the modification of drawPartial() for rendering images along with text
var drawPartial = function(key, lastAngle, angle) {
var value = prizes[key].product;
var img = new Image();
img.src = prizes[key].img;
img.onload = function() {
ctx.save();
ctx.drawImage(img,centerX,centerY);
ctx.save();
ctx.translate(centerX,centerY);
ctx.rotate((lastAngle+angle) / 2);
ctx.drawImage(img,centerX,centerY);
ctx.restore();
ctx.restore();
}
ctx.save();
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.lineWidth = 6;
ctx.fillStyle = segColors[key];
ctx.moveTo(centerX, centerY);
ctx.arc(centerX, centerY, size, lastAngle, angle);
ctx.lineTo(centerX, centerY);
ctx.closePath();
ctx.stroke();
ctx.fill();
ctx.save();
ctx.translate(centerX, centerY);
ctx.rotate((lastAngle+angle) / 2);
ctx.fillStyle = "#000";
ctx.fillText(value.substr(0,20), size / 2 + 20, 0);
ctx.restore();
ctx.restore();
}
You can see that I add image and its src based on the prizes object which should be called in each iteration called by the main draw() function but it never renders any image in any segment.
What I want is. In each iteration of drawPartial(), I want the image to be placed in the segment along with the text and rotated according to the angle.
Please help...
Problem
In your img.onload function you are "double translating" your centerX & centerY.
ctx.translate(centerX,centerY) will move the canvas's [0,0] origin to [centerX,centerY].
So when you ctx.drawImage(img,centerX,centerY) to draw your image, you are really double moving.
As a result your image is really being drawn at [ centerX*2, centerY*2 ].
A additional thought: Preload your images
It's best to preload all your images. That way if an image fails to load you can take reparative action before you begin drawing your wheel.
Here is how to preload all of your images so they are available when you need to draw them onto your Wheel:
// your incoming JSON
var prizesJSON='[{"product":"Axe FX","img":"https://mdn.mozillademos.org/files/5395/backdrop.png"},{"product":"Musicman JPX","img":"https://mdn.mozillademos.org/files/5395/backdrop.png"},{"product":"Ibanez JEM777V","img":"https://mdn.mozillademos.org/files/5395/backdrop.png"}]';
// the JSON converted to a JS array of objects
var prizes=JSON.parse(prizesJSON);
// preload all images
var imageURLs=[];
var imgs=[];
var imagesOK=0;
// add prize images into the image preloader
for(var i=0;i<prizes.length;i++){
imageURLs.push(prizes[i].img);
}
startLoadingAllImages(imagesAreNowLoaded);
//
function startLoadingAllImages(callback){
for (var i=0; i<imageURLs.length; i++) {
var img = new Image();
imgs.push(img);
img.onload = function(){
imagesOK++;
if (imagesOK>=imageURLs.length ) {
callback();
}
};
img.onerror=function(){alert("image load failed");}
img.src = imageURLs[i];
}
}
//
function imagesAreNowLoaded(){
// add the img objects to your prizes array objects
for(var i=0;i<prizes.length;i++){
prizes[i].imageObject=imgs[i];
// just testing (add the img to the DOM)
document.body.appendChild(imgs[i]);
}
// All images are fully loaded
// So draw your wheel now!
}
body{ background-color: ivory; }
<h4>Testing: (1) Preload all images, (2) Add imgs to DOM</h4>
I had this laying around...
I see you already have code to draw your Wheel, but I had this code in my code archive so I offer it here just in case it has some use for you.
Here is an example of how to draw a "Wheel of Fortune" with each blade containing a prize image and text. The techniques used include:
context.translate to set the rotation point to the center of the wheel.
context.rotate to rotate each blade to its desired angle.
context.textAlign & context.textBaseline to draw centered text.
context.globalAlpha to lighten each blades color so the black text has good contrast.
var canvas=document.getElementById("canvas");
var ctx=canvas.getContext("2d");
var cw=canvas.width;
var ch=canvas.height;
var PI=Math.PI;
var PI2=PI*2;
var bladeCount=10;
var sweep=PI2/bladeCount;
var cx=cw/2;
var cy=ch/2;
var radius=130;
var img=new Image();
img.onload=start;
img.src="https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/139992952/stackoverflow/house32x32transparent.png";
function start(){
for(var i=0;i<bladeCount;i++){
drawBlade(img,'House'+i,cx,cy,radius,sweep*i,sweep);
}
}
function drawBlade(img,text,cx,cy,radius,angle,arcsweep){
// save the context state
ctx.save();
// rotate the canvas to this blade's angle
ctx.translate(cx,cy);
ctx.rotate(angle);
// draw the blade wedge
ctx.lineWidth=1.5;
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.moveTo(0,0);
ctx.arc(0,0,radius,0,arcsweep);
ctx.closePath();
ctx.stroke();
// fill the blade, but keep the color light
// so the black text has good contrast
ctx.fillStyle='white';
ctx.fill();
ctx.fillStyle=randomColor();
ctx.globalAlpha=0.30;
ctx.fill();
ctx.globalAlpha=1.00;
// draw the text
ctx.rotate(PI/2+sweep/2);
ctx.textAlign='center';
ctx.textBaseline='middle';
ctx.fillStyle='black';
ctx.fillText(text,0,-radius+50);
// draw the img
// (resize to 32x32 so be sure orig img is square)
ctx.drawImage(img,-16,-radius+10,32,32);
// restore the context to its original state
ctx.restore();
}
function randomColor(){
return('#'+Math.floor(Math.random()*16777215).toString(16));
}
body{ background-color: ivory; }

I can't see that this had been posted already, so here goes.
Let's say i draw 2 squares on the canvas.
var c = document.getElementById('test'), ctx = c.getContext('2d');
ctx.fillStyle = "rgba(0,0,255,0.5)";
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.moveTo(25, 0);
ctx.lineTo(50, 50);
ctx.lineTo(0, 50);
ctx.lineTo(25, 0);
ctx.fill();
ctx.fillStyle = "rgba(255,0,0,0.5)";
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.moveTo(50, 0);
ctx.lineTo(75, 50);
ctx.lineTo(25, 50);
ctx.lineTo(50, 0);
ctx.fill();
This produces this image:
If i change globalAlpha to 0.5, i get this:
However, i want to produce this:
As in, all pixels are transparent and any images under it will appear, but the pixels created by the red triangle will overwrite the existing blue triangle where it is drawn.
And ctx.globalComposisteOperation doesn't seem to help in this instance due to it also factoring the transparency and the fact i want to keep both squares.
Is there any way to do this with current methods?
Use Compositing to clear the red triangle before drawing it.
Using compositing is slightly better than clipping because you don't have to clear the clip. Clearing a clip requires saving the entire context state and then restoring that context state -- many properties involved. Compositing just requires changing 1 property forth and back.
var canvas=document.getElementById("canvas");
var ctx=canvas.getContext("2d");
var cw=canvas.width;
var ch=canvas.height;
// fill the blue rect
ctx.fillStyle = "rgba(0,0,255,0.5)";
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.moveTo(25, 0);
ctx.lineTo(50, 50);
ctx.lineTo(0, 50);
ctx.lineTo(25, 0);
ctx.fill();
// define the red rect path
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.moveTo(50, 0);
ctx.lineTo(75, 50);
ctx.lineTo(25, 50);
ctx.lineTo(50, 0);
// clear the red rect path using compositing
ctx.globalCompositeOperation='destination-out';
ctx.fillStyle='black';
ctx.fill();
ctx.globalCompositeOperation='source-over';
// fill the red rect
ctx.fillStyle = "rgba(255,0,0,0.5)";
ctx.fill();
body{ background-color:white; }
#canvas{border:1px solid red; }
<canvas id="canvas" width=512 height=512></canvas>
Layers
Do it the photoshop way and create layers to do the work for you. Creating a layer (second canvas) is no more trouble than loading an image. You can create dozens and have no problem and it makes this type of work easy.
First create a second canvas (layer)
// canvas is original canvas
var layer = document.createElement("canvas");
layer.width = canvas.width; // same size as original
layer.height = canvas.height;
var ctx1 = layer.getContext("2d");
Then draw your triangles on the second canvas with alpha = 1;
var tri = (x,c)=>{
ctx1.fillStyle = c;
ctx1.beginPath();
ctx1.moveTo(25 + x, 0);
ctx1.lineTo(50 + x, 50);
ctx1.lineTo(0 + x, 50);
ctx1.closePath();
ctx1.fill();
}
tri(0,"#00f");
tri(25,"#f00");
Then just draw that layer on top of the canvas you are working on with the alpha value you want.
ctx.globalAlpha = 0.5;
ctx.drawImage(layer,0,0);
If you don't need the extra layer delete the canvas and context by dereferencing them.
ctx1 = undefined;
layer = undefined;
Or you can keep the layer , and make another layer for the background and mix them in real time to get the FX just right
//
var canvas = document.createElement("canvas");
document.body.appendChild(canvas);
var ctx = canvas.getContext("2d");
var layer = document.createElement("canvas");
layer.width = canvas.width; // same size as original
layer.height = canvas.height;
var ctx1 = layer.getContext("2d");
var tri = (x,c)=>{
ctx1.fillStyle = c;
ctx1.beginPath();
ctx1.moveTo(25 + x, 0);
ctx1.lineTo(50 + x, 50);
ctx1.lineTo(0 + x, 50);
ctx1.fill();
}
tri(0,"#00f");
tri(25,"#0f0");
tri(50,"#f00");
ctx.globalAlpha = 0.5;
ctx.drawImage(layer,0,0);
layer = ctx1 = undefined;
You can clear the area for the second rectangle before drawing it.
var c = document.getElementById('game'),
ctx = c.getContext('2d');
ctx.globalAlpha = 0.5;
ctx.fillStyle = "blue";
ctx.fillRect(0, 0, 50, 50);
// Clear the extra bit of the blue rectangle
ctx.clearRect(25, 25, 25, 25);
ctx.fillStyle = "red";
ctx.fillRect(25, 25, 50, 50);
<canvas id="game" width="320" height="240"></canvas>
I would honestly suggest just changing the colors and avoid using an alpha.
var c = document.getElementById('game'),
ctx = c.getContext('2d');
ctx.fillStyle = "#8080FF";
ctx.fillRect(0, 0, 50, 50);
ctx.fillStyle = "#ff8080";
ctx.fillRect(25, 25, 50, 50);
<canvas id="game" width="320" height="240"></canvas>
var c = document.getElementById('test'), ctx = c.getContext('2d');
ctx.save();
ctx.fillStyle = "rgba(0,0,255,0.5)";
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.moveTo(25, 0);
ctx.lineTo(50, 50);
ctx.lineTo(0, 50);
ctx.lineTo(25, 0);
ctx.fill();
ctx.fillStyle = "rgba(255,0,0,0.5)";
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.moveTo(50, 0);
ctx.lineTo(75, 50);
ctx.lineTo(25, 50);
ctx.lineTo(50, 0);
ctx.clip();
ctx.clearRect(0, 0, 100, 100);
ctx.fill();
ctx.restore();
Just use clip() to take the current path, clear everything in there with clearRect, then draw the path as normal.
#markE is right, use compositing instead of clipping (really heavy).
However, his solution will only work if you've drawn everything with an rgba color. Maybe I read your question wrongly, but if you're going from an opaque shape and want to make it transparent, then you should rather use the copy gCO and the globalAlpha property.
This will have less performance impact since drawImage is faster than fill, and will allow you to perform a fade-out effect ; but it really depends on your needs.
var ctx = c.getContext('2d');
// initial blue
ctx.fillStyle = "#0000FF";
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.moveTo(25, 0);
ctx.lineTo(50, 50);
ctx.lineTo(0, 50);
ctx.lineTo(25, 0);
ctx.fill();
setTimeout(function drawRed() {
ctx.fillStyle = "#FF0000";
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.moveTo(50, 0);
ctx.lineTo(75, 50);
ctx.lineTo(25, 50);
ctx.lineTo(50, 0);
ctx.fill();
}, 500);
btn.onclick = function makeItTransparent() {
// if we weere to make this into an animation, we would set it only once
ctx.globalCompositeOperation = 'copy';
ctx.globalAlpha = .8;
// draw the canvas on itself
ctx.drawImage(c, 0, 0);
// once again, in an animation we won't reset this to default
ctx.globalAlpha = 1;
ctx.globalCompositeOperation = 'source-over';
};

I'm trying to animate a pen filling in a variable width shape, currently working with html5 canvas. Ideally, I want to be able to have the sample below both start light and get colored in dark, as well as not appear at all and get colored in as though being drawn from nothing.
source-in doesn't seem to work, at least in firefox.
The image in question is a simple-ish SVG path, so if there's a reasonable way to generate canvas clip paths from SVG bezier paths, that would work as well.
var img = new Image();
img.src = "data:image/svg+xml;base64,...";
var xRecords = [...];
var yRecords = [...];
var canvas = document.getElementById("topCanvas");
var ctx = canvas.getContext("2d");
ctx.drawImage(img, 0, 0);
ctx.strokeStyle = "#0000ff";
ctx.lineWidth = 90;
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.lineCap = "round";
ctx.moveTo(xRecords[0], yRecords[0]);
for(var i = 0; i < xRecords.length; i++) {
ctx.lineTo(xRecords[i], yRecords[i]);
ctx.stroke();
}
http://codepen.io/matelich/pen/gpLmOW
Generating alternate versions of the image is not a big deal if that would help. Oh and the animation is just a sample.
Update This works for the most part on Chrome and IE, but not on Firefox: http://codepen.io/matelich/pen/pJNeRq
FF doesn't like your SVG dataURL.
Option#1:
You could use a .png image instead.
Option#2:
You can create a cubic Bezier curve (like SVG's "C") in canvas using context.moveTo and context.bezierCurveTo.
Then your compositing will work fine even in FF:
var canvas = document.getElementById("topCanvas");
var ctx = canvas.getContext("2d");

So I've been fiddling with the canvas element, and I seem to have run into a situation that is highly irritating, yet I haven't been able to find a solution.
Say that two polygons are drawn on a canvas, and that they should be touching each other. Where one polygon is drawn like this:
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.moveTo(oX,oY);
ctx.lineTo(oX=oX+k,oY=oY-h);
ctx.lineTo(oX=oX+k,oY=oY+h);
ctx.lineTo(oX=oX-k,oY=oY+h);
ctx.lineTo(oX=oX-k,oY=oY-h);
ctx.fill();
A simple version is implemented in this fiddle.
As you can probably see there is a thin line between these shapes. How can I avoid it? I have tried the solutions here, but they don't really seem to refer to this case, because I'm dealing with diagonal lines.
One solution
You could always use the stroke-line trick, but depending on your goal:
If it is to show many polygons next to each other, you could look at the polygons as simple squares.
Draw them in as such in an off-screen canvas next to each other. This will produce a result with no gaps.
Then transform the main canvas into the position you want those polygons to appear. Add rotation and/or skew depending on goal.
Finally, draw the off-screen canvas onto the main canvas as an image. Problem gone.
This will give you an accurate result with no extra steps in stroking, and the calculations for the boxes becomes very simple and fast to do (think 2d grid).
You have to use an off-screen canvas though. If you transform main canvas and draw in the shapes you will encounter the same problem as already present. This is because each point is transformed and if there is need for interpolation it will be calculated for each path shape separately. Drawing in an image will add interpolation on the whole surface, and only where there are gaps (non-opaque alpha). As we already are "gap-free" this is no longer a problem.
This will require an extra step in planning to place them correctly, but this is a simple step.
Example
Step 1 - draw boxes into an off-screen canvas:
This code draws on the off-screen canvas resulting in two boxes with no gap:
(the example uses an on-screen to show result, see next step for usage of off-screen canvas)
var ctx = document.querySelector("canvas").getContext("2d");
ctx.fillStyle = "red";
ctx.fillRect(10, 10, 50, 50);
ctx.fillRect(60, 10, 50, 50);
<canvas/>
Step 2 - transform main canvas and draw in off-screen canvas
When drawn into main canvas with transformation set, the result will be (pseudo-random transformation just to show):
var ctx = document.querySelector("canvas").getContext("2d");
// off-screen canvas
var octx = document.createElement("canvas").getContext("2d");
octx.fillStyle = "red";
octx.fillRect(10, 10, 50, 50);
octx.fillRect(60, 10, 50, 50);
// transform and draw to main
ctx.translate(80, 0);
ctx.rotate(0.5, Math.PI);
ctx.transform(1, 0, Math.tan(-0.5),1, 0,0); // skew
ctx.drawImage(octx.canvas, 0, 0);
<canvas />
Step 3 (optional) - Interaction
If you want to interact with the boxes you simply apply the same transform, then add path for a box and hit-test it against the mouse position. Redraw a single state, erase by clearing and draw back the off-screen canvas on top:
var ctx = document.querySelector("canvas").getContext("2d");
// off-screen canvas
var octx = document.createElement("canvas").getContext("2d");
octx.fillStyle = "red";
octx.fillRect(10, 10, 50, 50);
octx.fillRect(60, 10, 50, 50);
// allow us to reuse some of the steps:
function getTransforms() {
ctx.setTransform(1,0,0,1,0,0);
ctx.translate(80, 0);
ctx.rotate(0.5, Math.PI);
ctx.transform(1, 0, Math.tan(-0.5),1, 0,0); // skew
}
function clear() {
ctx.setTransform(1,0,0,1,0,0);
ctx.clearRect(0,0,300,150);
}
function redraw() {
ctx.drawImage(octx.canvas, 0, 0);
}
getTransforms();
redraw();
ctx.canvas.onmousemove = function(e) {
var r = this.getBoundingClientRect(),
x = e.clientX - r.left, y = e.clientY - r.top;
// box 1 (for many, use array)
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.rect(10, 10, 50, 50);
clear(); // these can be optimized to use state-flags
getTransforms(); // so they aren't redraw for every move...
redraw();
// just one box check here
if (ctx.isPointInPath(x, y)) {
ctx.fill();
}
};
<canvas />
Yes, it's annoying when filled polygons result in that tiny gap. It's especially common on diagonals that should theoretically meet.
A common workaround is to put a half-pixel, same-colored stroke around the polygons:
//Some basic setup ...
var canvas = document.getElementById("canvas");
var ctx = canvas.getContext("2d");
var oX = 50;
var oY = 50;
var h = 33;
var k = 50;
ctx.fillStyle = 'red';
ctx.strokeStyle='red';
ctx.lineWidth=0.50;
//Draw one polygon
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.moveTo(oX,oY);
ctx.lineTo(oX=oX+k,oY=oY-h);
ctx.lineTo(oX=oX+k,oY=oY+h);
ctx.lineTo(oX=oX-k,oY=oY+h);
ctx.lineTo(oX=oX-k,oY=oY-h);
ctx.fill();
ctx.stroke();
//Draw another polygon
oX = oX+k;
oY = oY+h;
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.moveTo(oX,oY);
ctx.lineTo(oX=oX+k,oY=oY-h);
ctx.lineTo(oX=oX+k,oY=oY+h);

I want to clip a bunch of images into hexagon shapes.
I have it sort of working, but the clipping is across all the hexes instead of each image clipping to only one hex. What am I doing wrong?
Here's a live demo:
http://codepen.io/tev/pen/iJaHB
Here's the js in question:
function polygon(ctx, x, y, radius, sides, startAngle, anticlockwise, img, imgX, imgY) {
if (sides < 3) return;
var a = (Math.PI * 2)/sides;
a = anticlockwise?-a:a;
ctx.save();
ctx.translate(x,y);
ctx.rotate(startAngle);
ctx.moveTo(radius,0);
for (var i = 1; i < sides; i++) {
ctx.lineTo(radius*Math.cos(a*i),radius*Math.sin(a*i));
}
ctx.closePath();
// add stroke
ctx.lineWidth = 5;
ctx.strokeStyle = '#056e96';
ctx.stroke();
// add stroke
ctx.lineWidth = 4;
ctx.strokeStyle = '#47b6c8';
ctx.stroke();
// add stroke
ctx.lineWidth = 2;
ctx.strokeStyle = '#056e96';
ctx.stroke();
// Clip to the current path
ctx.clip();
ctx.drawImage(img, imgX, imgY);
ctx.restore();
}
// Grab the Canvas and Drawing Context
var canvas = document.getElementById('c');
var ctx = canvas.getContext('2d');
// Create an image element
var img = document.createElement('IMG');
var img2 = document.createElement('IMG');
// When the image is loaded, draw it
img.onload = function () {
polygon(ctx, 120,120,100,6, 0,0,img, -120,-170);
}
img2.onload = function () {
polygon(ctx, 280,212,100,6, 0,0,img2, -150,-120);
}
// Specify the src to load the image
img.src = "http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7381/9601443923_051d985646_n.jpg";
img2.src = "http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5496/9585303170_d005d2aaa9_n.jpg";
You need to add this to your polygon() method:
ctx.beginPath();
See modified pen here
function polygon(ctx, x, y, radius, sides, startAngle, anticlockwise, img, ...
if (sides < 3) return;
var a = (Math.PI * 2)/sides;
a = anticlockwise?-a:a;
ctx.save();
ctx.translate(x,y);
ctx.rotate(startAngle);
ctx.beginPath(); /// for example here, before moveTo/lineTo
ctx.moveTo(radius,0);
...
If not the lines will accumulate so the second time you call polygon the previous polygon will still exist. That's why you see the image partly inside the first hexagon as well.
I placed an text on html5 canvas object using fillText option, question is I need to move the text position or change the color of the text that is already rendered.
Shortly I need to know how to Manipulate particular child of canvas element
This will move a small circle over your canvas
var can = document.getElementById('canvas');
can.height = 1000; can.width = 1300;
var ctx = can.getContext('2d');
var x = 10, y = 100;
ctx.fillStyle = "black";
ctx.fillRect(700, 100, 100, 100);
function draw() {
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.arc(x, y, 20, 0, 2 * Math.PI);
ctx.fillStyle = 'rgba(250,0,0,0.4)';
ctx.fill();
x += 2;
ctx.fillStyle = "rgba(34,45,23,0.4)";
ctx.fillRect(0, 0, can.width, can.height);
requestAnimationFrame(draw);
//ctx.clearRect(0,0,can.width,can.height);
}
draw();
<canvas id="canvas" style="background:rgba(34,45,23,0.4)"></canvas>
I think there is no object model behind the canvas, so you cannot access a "child object" like a "text object" and change it.
What you can do is that you draw the text again with a different color that overwrites the "pixels" of the canvas.
If you want to move the text, first you have to either clear the canvas or re-draw the text with a background/transparent color to get rid of the text in the previous position. Then you can draw the text in the new position.
I've never tried it but I think this would be the way to do it.
var canvas = document.getElementById("canvas"); //get the canvas dom object
var ctx = canvas.getContext("2d"); //get the context
var c = { //create an object to draw
x:0, //x value
y:0, //y value
r:5; //radius
}
var redraw = function(){ // this function redraws the c object every frame (FPS)
ctx.clearRect(0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height); // clear the canvas
ctx.beginPath(); //start the path
ctx.arc(c.x, c.y, c.r, 0, Math.PI*2); //draw the circle
ctx.closePath(); //close the circle path
ctx.fill(); //fill the circle
requestAnimationFrame(redraw);//schedule this function to be run on the next frame
}
function move(){ // this function modifies the object
var decimal = Math.random() // this returns a float between 0.0 and 1.0
c.x = decimal * canvas.width; // mulitple the random decimal by the canvas width and height to get a random pixel in the canvas;
c.y = decimal * canvas.height;
}
redraw(); //start the animation
setInterval(move, 1000); // run the move function every second (1000 milliseconds)
Here is a fiddle for it.

If you want easing and translations, change the move method accordingly.
Hope it is allowed to advertise somebody's project.
Take a look at http://ocanvas.org/ you can get inspiration there.
It is object like canvas library. Allows you to handle events, make animations etc.
