In this article, we are going to see how to set the centeredScaling of a Group canvas using Fabric.js. The Group in Fabric.js is movable and can be stretched according to requirements. Further, the Group 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 that will contain the Group. After this, we will initialize instances of Canvas and Group provided by Fabric.js and enable the centered scaling of the canvas Group using the centeredScaling property.

Syntax:

fabric.Group([canvas1, canvas2], {
    centeredScaling: Boolean
});

Parameters: This property accepts a single parameter as mentioned above and described below:

  • centeredScaling: It specifies the centered scaling of the canvas Group. It contains a boolean value.

Below example illustrate the use of Fabric.js Group centeredScaling property:
