In this article, we are going to see how to change the lockSkewingX of the text canvas using Fabric.js. The canvas means the text written is movable, rotatable, resizable, and can be stretched. Further, the text itself cannot be edited like a textbox.
Approach: To make it possible, we are going to use a JavaScript library called Fabric.js. After importing the library using CDN, we will create a canvas block in the body tag that will contain our text. After this, we will initialize instances of Canvas and Text provided by Fabric.js and set the horizontal skewing of the canvas text using lockSkewingX property.
Syntax:
fabric.Text(text, lockSkewingX: Boolean );
Parameters: This property accepts a single parameter as mentioned above and described below:
- lockSkewingX: It is a boolean value that specifies whether to lock horizontally skewing of a Text canvas or not.
Below is the example that illustrates the use of lockSkewingX property in Fabric.js:
Example:
<!DOCTYPE html><html>
<head>
<!-- Loading the FabricJS library --> <script src=
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div style="text-align: center;
width: 400px;">
<h1 style="color: green;">
GeeksforGeeks
</h1>
<b>
Fabric.js | Text lockSkewingX Property
</b>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<canvas id="canvas"
width="400" height="200"
style="border:1px solid green;">
</canvas>
</div>
<script>
// Create a new instance of Canvas
var canvas = new fabric.Canvas("canvas");
// Create a new Text instance
var geek = new fabric.Text('GeeksforGeeks', {
lockSkewingX : true
});
// Render the text on Canvas
canvas.add(geek);
canvas.centerObject(geek);
</script>
</body>
</html>
