Draw an image with opacity on the canvas
I have an image. I am using drawImage()
to paint it on canvas.
My question is, if the image has an opacity of 0.4, how will I draw it at the same opacity on the canvas.
I created a sample Fiddle here . How can I paint #scream
on mycanvas
while maintaining 0.4 the opacity of the image.
HTML:
<p>Image with 0.4 opacity to be used:</p>
<img id="scream" width="200" height="200" src="http://img42.com/NMMU8+">
<p>Canvas:</p>
<canvas id="myCanvas" width="220" height="220" style="border:1px solid #d3d3d3;">
</canvas>
CSS
#scream{
opacity: 0.4;
}
#myCanvas{
background-color: #f60;
}
JS:
window.onload = function() {
var c = document.getElementById("myCanvas");
var ctx = c.getContext("2d");
var img = document.getElementById("scream");
ctx.drawImage(img, 10, 10);
}
