Fabric.js Path originX Property

Last Updated : 27 Jan, 2021

In this article, we are going to see how to set the originX of a Path using Fabric.js. The Path in Fabric.js is movable and can be stretched according to requirements. Further, the Path 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 path. After this, we will initialize instances of Canvas and Path provided by FabricJS and set the horizontal transformation of the path using originX property, and render the path on the Canvas as given in the example below.

Syntax:

fabric.Path('path', {
    originX: string
});

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

originX: It is a string value that specifies the horizontal transformation of a canvas path.

The below example illustrates the use of Fabric.js Path originX property in JavaScript:
