How to fill the whole canvas with specific color?
You can change the background of the canvas by doing this:
<head>
<style>
canvas {
background-color: blue;
}
</style>
</head>
Yes, fill in a Rectangle with a solid color across the canvas, use the height
and width
of the canvas itself:
var canvas = document.getElementById("canvas");
var ctx = canvas.getContext("2d");
ctx.fillStyle = "blue";
ctx.fillRect(0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height);
canvas{ border: 1px solid black; }
<canvas width=300 height=150 id="canvas">
If you want to do the background explicitly, you must be certain that you draw behind the current elements on the canvas.
var canvas = document.getElementById("canvas");
var ctx = canvas.getContext("2d");
// Add behind elements.
ctx.globalCompositeOperation = 'destination-over'
// Now draw!
ctx.fillStyle = "blue";
ctx.fillRect(0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height);
