The canvas isPointInPath() Method is used to check whether or not the specified point is contained in the current path. The isPointInPath() method returns true if the specified point is in the current path, otherwise false.
Syntax:
context.isPointInPath( x, y );
Parameters: This method accepts two parameters as mentioned above and described below:
- x: This parameter specifies the x-axis coordinate point to check.
- y:: This parameter specifies the y-axis coordinate point to check.
Example 1: The triangle will be drawn if point (150, 150) is in the path.
