Detecting mouse events on Kinetic.Line - html5-canvas

I'm trying to detect mouse events (currently mousedown) on a Kinetic.Group containing a grid made of Kinetic.Line's
I'm listening to the mousedown event on the Layer. When it happens that i hit a line, no event is fired.
var grid = new Kinetic.Group({
x: 0,
y: 0,
width: this.group.width(),
height: this.group.height()
});
grid.on("mousedown", function(){
alert("At least this one should fire!");
});
var gridX = this.gridWidth, gridY = this.gridHeight;
this.group.add(grid);
while(gridY < this.rect.height()){
var line = new Kinetic.Line({
points : [0,gridY, this.rect.width(), gridY],
stroke: "grey",
strokeWidth: 1
});
grid.add(line);
gridY += this.gridHeight;
}
while(gridX < this.rect.width()){
var line = new Kinetic.Line({
points : [gridX,0, gridX, this.rect.height()],
stroke: "grey",
strokeWidth: 1
});
grid.add(line);
gridX += this.gridWidth;
}
I found this post:
Kinetic.Line mouseover
The answer mentioned there is using "saveData()" on the shape. This seems to be old because this method does not exist in Kinetic.Shape.
The example where the above post is pointing to is for images. And it uses the cache() method to create a hit graph or something. I tried that for my lines but this won't work either.
How can i simply detect mouse events on a Kinetic.Line?

Just in case you are still looking for an answer to this #Chris, and in case others find your thread, I believe you and I were suffering from the same issue. #Sjiep so graciously provided a fix for my problem under this thread.
Turns out it was indeed a bug!

how can I free drawing on shapes in konvajs

I want to make free drawing on top of shapes at konvajs. like an exp; Can u give me advise about shapes attrs like zindex or smt.
https://ibb.co/jq9pUK
Your question is very broad and you are not showing what you have tried so far. You would get better help faster if you give a clear description and post cut-down sample code for your questions.
Konvajs works on top of the HTML5 canvas. When working with a konvajs you put shapes, lines, images and text on to layers. Layers have a z-order and shapes on a layer have a z-order.
To answer your question, I would follow the pattern:
- create the stage
- create the shape layer
- add the shapes to the shape layer - triangles, rectangles, circles, etc
- add another layer for the freehand drawing
- draw on this layer.
Because of the sequence of adding the components to the canvas the z-order will support what you ask for in your question. If you wanted the drawing to happen 'behind' the shapes you would create the layers in the opposite sequence.
The working snippet below shows how to do the steps that I have listed above, and how to listen for the events you need to make it operate. You can extend from this starter code to handle erasing, selecting line colour, thickness, and stroke style. See the Konvajs drawing tutorial for more information.
Good luck.
// Set up the canvas / stage
var s1 = new Konva.Stage({container: 'container1', width: 300, height: 200});
// Add a layer for the shapes
var layer1 = new Konva.Layer({draggable: false});
s1.add(layer1);
// draw a cirlce
var circle = new Konva.Circle({
x: 80,
y: s1.getHeight() / 2,
radius: 70,
fill: 'red',
stroke: 'black',
strokeWidth: 4
})
layer1.add(circle)
// draw a wedge.
var wedge = new Konva.Wedge({
x: 200,
y: s1.getHeight() / 2,
radius: 70,
angle: 60,
fill: 'gold',
stroke: 'black',
strokeWidth: 4,
rotation: -120
});
layer1.add(wedge)
// Now add a layer for freehand drawing
var layer2 = new Konva.Layer({draggable: false});
s1.add(layer2);
// Add a rectangle to layer2 to catch events. Make it semi-transparent
var r = new Konva.Rect({x:0, y: 0, width: 300, height: 200, fill: 'blue', opacity: 0.1})
layer2.add(r)
// Everything is ready so draw the canvas objects set up so far.
s1.draw()
var drawingLine = null; // handle to the line we are drawing
var isPaint = false; // flag to indicate we are painting
// Listen for mouse down on the rectangle. When we get one, get a new line and set the initial point
r.on('mousedown touchstart', function () {
isPaint = true;
var pos = s1.getPointerPosition();
drawingLine = newLine(pos.x, pos.y);
drawingLine.points(drawingLine.points().concat(pos.x,pos.y));
layer2.draw();
});
// Listen for mouse up ON THE STAGE, because the mouseup will not fire on the rect because the mouse is actually over the line point we just drew when it is released.
s1.on('mouseup touchend', function () {
isPaint = false;
drawingLine = null;
});
// when the mouse is moved, add the position to the line points and refresh the layer to see the effect.
r.on('mousemove touchmove', function () {
if (!isPaint) {
return;
}
var pos = s1.getPointerPosition();
drawingLine.points(drawingLine.points().concat(pos.x,pos.y));
layer2.draw();
})
// Function to add and return a line object. We will extend this line to give the appearance of drawing.
function newLine(x,y){
var line = new Konva.Line({
points: [x,y,x,y],
stroke: 'limegreen',
strokeWidth: 4,
lineCap: 'round',
lineJoin: 'round'
});
layer2.add(line)
return line;

Animate point with paper.js

I’d like to rebuild this animation http://imgur.com/l5Vhswe in paper.js.
I already tried SVG animations (http://codepen.io/magglomag/pen/jrVwzy) but despite from the fact that they’ll be deprecated soon I was not able to move the two points asynchronously.
What I have so far is the shape and I know that I can animate with the onFrame event handler. But I have no clue how to say that the point should animate between the coordinates [43,168.7] and [43,35.3].
http://codepen.io/magglomag/pen/yaVXrr
var firstSegment = new Segment({
point: [109,3.7]
});
var secondSegment = new Segment({
point: [43,168.7]
});
var thirdSegment = new Segment({
point: [109,202.2]
});
var path = new Path({
segments: [firstSegment, secondSegment, thirdSegment],
fillColor: '#2dfd9a',
closed: true
});
secondSegment.onFrame = function(event) {
this.point = [43,35.3]
}
The error you are making is that you are trying to bind an handler to segment.onFrame event.
But only item.onFrame and view.onFrame are available.
In PaperScript context, you can even use a global onframe named function as a convenient way to animate things.
Here is a simple example demonstrating how a path segment can be animated.
// create a triangle
var triangle = new Path.RegularPolygon({
center: view.center,
sides: 3,
radius: 50,
fillColor: 'orange'
});
// store initial first point position
var initialPoint = triangle.firstSegment.point.clone();
// on frame
function onFrame(event) {
// use sine function as a convenient way to demonstrate animation
var newPoint = initialPoint + Math.sin(event.count * 0.05) * 30;
// update first point
triangle.firstSegment.point = newPoint;
}

paint application with kinetic js

I have made a drag and drop application in HTML5 canvas with kinetic js. Can we also add the paint brush functionality to the same canvas using kinetic js? If yes, please share the link for one such application, and also the code, if possible.
You can use mouse events to let the user create a sketch on the canvas.
Here's how to let the user create a Kinetic polyline.
On mousedown:
Set a mousedown flag to true (indicating that the user is sketching)
Create a new Kinetic Line object
On mousemove:
Add the current mouse position to the points in the line object
Redraw the line that now includes the latest mouse position
On mouseup:
Clear the mousedown flag.
Repeat every time the user sketches a new polyline.
To let the user draw other Kinetic shapes (rect,circle,etc.) you have many options:
Have the user select which shape they want to create. Use mousedown + mouseup to get the bounds of the shape they want. Then add that kinetic shape with those bounds to the stage.
OR
Have the user select which shape they want to create. Create a generic version of that shape and put it on the stage. Let the user drag the generic shape to their desired position. Let the user customize that generic shape by dragging the bounds anchors.
OR
Have the user select which shape they want to create and have them text input the bounds. Create a generic version of that shape and put it on the stage. Let the user drag the generic shape to their desired position.
Really, there are so many options that the design is up to you.

I have done something some weeks before. I don't know if it can help you.
http://jsfiddle.net/F3zwW/10/
var x;
var y;
var entry;
var isFinished = false;
circle.on('dragstart', function(evt) {
entry = new Kinetic.Circle({
x: evt.x,
y: evt.y,
radius: 10,
fill: 'red',
stroke: 'black',
strokeWidth: 2
});
group.add(entry);
layer.add(group);
entry.moveToTop();
});
circle.on('dragmove', function(evt) {
if (isFinished) return;
if (x != undefined && y != undefined) {
var line = new Kinetic.Line({
points: [x, y, evt.x, evt.y],
stroke: 'red',
strokeWidth: 20,
lineCap: 'round',
lineJoin: 'round'
});
length += Math.sqrt(Math.pow(evt.x - x, 2) + Math.pow(evt.y - y, 2));
group.add(line);
}
x = evt.x;
y = evt.y;
layer.add(group);
circle.moveToTop();
entry.moveToTop();
layer.draw();
if (length > 120) circle.fire('dragend');
});
circle.on('dragend', function(evt) {
if (isFinished) return;
var exit = new Kinetic.Circle({
x: x,
y: y,
radius: 10,
fill: 'red',
stroke: 'black',
strokeWidth: 2
});
group.add(exit);
layer.add(group);
circle.hide();
layer.draw();

Is that the behavior you are looking for ?
Here I wanted for some reasons to limit the length but you can easily remove this restriction.

mouse event won't fire on a kineticjs shape

Upgraded from 4.0.5 to 4.4.1 because Chrome stopped rendering correctly.
However, in the 4.0.5 version it was possible to draw a line in a Kinetic.Shape object and detect mouse events on it. This seems no longer the case. Even when using the recommended Canvas.fillStroke(this) call.
Here is some code:
var myshape = new Kinetic.Shape({
drawFunc: function(canvas) {
var context = canvas.getContext();
context.beginPath();
context.setLineWidth(20);
context.moveTo(100, 10);
context.lineTo(100, 60);
context.closePath();
context.stroke(); //this does
//canvas.fillStroke(this); //this doesn't bring the line on the screen
//context.fill(); //this doesn't make the event work either
context.beginPath();
context.setLineWidth(10);
context.moveTo(100, 60);
context.lineTo(100, 120);
context.closePath();
//canvas.fillStroke(this); //this doesn't bring the line on the screen
context.stroke(); //this does
canvas.fillStroke(this);
},
draggable: true
});
myshape.on('mousedown', function(event){
alert('mousedown');
});
An example in this fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/GDQ6G/ (Only seems to render the line in Chrome. Not in firefox)
Another example here on this test page: http://www.planetinaction.com/linetest.htm
It is clear I am doing something wrong since this code doesn't render in Firefox. Can someone please show me this is done in the linked fiddle? The documentation for a shape shows how to draw a single item. I need to draw multiple items to form my custom shape as illustrated with this simplified two line example.
As it turns out based on Eric Rowells answer, a shape can only contain one path. That is a pity because version 4.0.5 was able to handle multiple paths until Google changed something funky in Chrome.
Anyway, the answer I was looking for is held in KineticJS groups. The code gets a lot more elaborate but it works.
var stage = new Kinetic.Stage({
container: 'container',
width: $('#container').width(),
height: $('#container').height()
});
var layer = new Kinetic.Layer('spline');
var group = new Kinetic.Group({
draggable: true,
});
group.add(new Kinetic.Shape({
drawFunc: function(canvas) {
var context = canvas.getContext();
context.beginPath();
context.moveTo(100, 10);
context.lineTo(100, 60);
context.closePath();
canvas.stroke(this);
},
strokeWidth: 6,
}));
group.add(new Kinetic.Shape({
drawFunc: function(canvas) {
var context = canvas.getContext();
context.beginPath();
context.moveTo(100, 60);
context.lineTo(100, 120);
context.closePath();
canvas.stroke(this);
},
strokeWidth: 20,
}));
group.on('mousedown', function(event){
alert('mousedown');
});
group.on('mouseover', function(event){
alert('mouseover');
});
layer.add(group);
stage.add(layer);
Here is the code in Fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/QcsBH/
I could not find a reference in the documentation with regard to event handling by a group but I am pleasantly surprised to see that a group handles events of all the members in it.
Each KineticJS shape should only have one beginPath() and one closePath() execution. You also shouldn't ever directly stroke or fill using the context. You need to use the methods tied to the KineticJS canvas renderer:
canvas.stroke(this);
canvas.fill(this);
canvas.fillStroke(this);
Here's an example of drawing custom shapes:
http://www.html5canvastutorials.com/kineticjs/html5-canvas-kineticjs-shape-tutorial/
If you bind a simple listener to the triangle in that tutorial, the event fires correctly (you can modify the code right on the page)

Fixed floating shape on kinetic.js stage

I have tried to find a solution on how to implement fixed score table to visible stage (canvas) area by using kineticjs library layers and stages. The basic idea is that shape layer can be scrolled and stage is wider than the visible browser area but the score table should be all the time fixed to certain position on the visible area like in many casual games.
What would be the best approach on creating this kind of fixed always visible shapes to stage/canvas? Is there a way to refer to visible area xy position?
Your best bet for making a fixed position group is either to use a second layer on the stage or to create two groups for your objects - one that remains in place and another that can be moved. I'd go with the dual-layer approach as this allows you to redraw the layers separately so that when one has updated information, you don't need to redraw the other.
cvsObj.page = new Kinetic.Layer();
cvsObj.dynamic = new Kinetic.Layer();
cvsObj.stage.add(cvsObj.page);
cvsObj.stage.add(cvsObj.dynamic);
I took the two layer approach but actually my challenge was how to implement 'page' static behavior. I figured out that as it seems that Kinetic layers/stages do not offer methods for this I need to use other means to make 'page' layer on top of viewable area. I used jquery scrollTop() and scrollLeft()functions for this. And layer method .setAbsolutePosition() is used to update position for whole layer. Here pageLayer position is updated and dynamicLayer not so naming might be bit confusing but reflects what you see on browser.
Here is a simple example what does what I was looking for. Now the green rectangle moves when you scroll stage and the red rectangle and the x/y position counter stay on visible area. I attach this solution here with tutorial type of content as it might be useful.
<script>
window.onload = function() {
var stage = new Kinetic.Stage({
container: 'container',
width: 1600, height: 1600
});
var layerDynamic = new Kinetic.Layer();
var layerPage = new Kinetic.Layer();
var rectGreen = new Kinetic.Rect({
x: 239, y: 75, width: 100, height: 50, fill: 'green'
});
var rectRed = new Kinetic.Rect({
x: 100, y: 75, width: 100, height: 50, fill: 'red'
});
var simpleText = new Kinetic.Text({
x: 1, y: 1, text: "Init", textFill: "black"
});
layerDynamic.add(rectGreen);
layerPage.add(rectRed);
layerPage.add(simpleText);
$(document).scroll(function(e) {
var visibleXTop = $(this).scrollTop();
var visibleYTop = $(this).scrollLeft();
simpleText.setAttrs({text: visibleXTop + ' ' + visibleYTop});
layerPage.setAbsolutePosition(visibleYTop , visibleXTop);
layerPage.draw();
});
stage.add(layerDynamic);
stage.add(layerPage);
};
</script>
