canvas container page offset code example

Example: canvas container page offset

// get the canvas and store its original dimensions
var canvas = document.querySelector('.canvas');
var originalWidth = canvas.width; // px
var originalHeight = canvas.height; // px

// draw something on the canvas
var context = canvas.getContext('2d');
var blockSize = originalWidth / 5; // px
context.fillStyle = '#6495ED'; // nice cornflowerblue

for (var i = 0; i < originalWidth; i += blockSize) {
  for (var j = 0; j < originalHeight; j += blockSize) {
    context.fillRect(i, j, blockSize / 2, blockSize / 2);
  }
}

// get the bounds of the canvas element
function getBounds() {
  return canvas.getBoundingClientRect();
}

// get the offset of the canvas relative to the document
function getOffset() {
  var bounds = getBounds();
  return {
    x: bounds.left + window.scrollX,
    y: bounds.top + window.scrollY,
  };
}

// init the buttons for demonstration purposes
var resizeButton = document.querySelector('.resize');

  var newWidth = 50; // px
  var newHeight = 50; // px

  } else {

});
