GWT and HTML5 Canvas Demo
This is my first experiment with GWT and HTML5 Canvas. My first attempt is to create rectangles, with just a few lines of code I came up something like this:
Code:
public class GwtHtml5 implements EntryPoint { static final String canvasHolderId = "canvasholder"; static final String unsupportedBrowser = "Your browser does not support the HTML5 Canvas"; static final int height = 400; static final int width = 500; final CssColor colorRed = CssColor.make("red"); final CssColor colorGreen = CssColor.make("green"); final CssColor colorBlue = CssColor.make("blue"); Canvas canvas; Context2d context; public void onModuleLoad() { canvas = Canvas.createIfSupported(); if (canvas == null) { RootPanel.get(canvasHolderId).add(new Label(unsupportedBrowser)); return; } createCanvas(); } private void createCanvas(){ canvas.setWidth(width + "px"); canvas.setHeight(height + "px"); canvas.setCoordinateSpaceWidth(width); canvas.setCoordinateSpaceHeight(height); RootPanel.get(canvasHolderId).add(canvas); context = canvas.getContext2d(); context.beginPath(); context.setFillStyle(colorRed); context.fillRect(100, 50, 100, 100); context.setFillStyle(colorGreen); context.fillRect(200, 150, 100, 100); context.setFillStyle(colorBlue); context.fillRect(300, 250, 100, 100); context.closePath(); } }
And my Spring balls experiment with some codes that I found on the Web.

Check out http://www.emitrom-lienzo.appspot.com/#ExplorerPlaceImpl:rectangle for some cool canvas-based rectangle example using a product called Lienzo.
Lienzo is a canvas-based graphics toolkit implemented using GWT. Most of the primitive shapes are supported out the gate, as are events, animations and transformations. Check it out! http://emitrom.com/lienzo/download
Best regards.
what is the difference between setCoordinateSpaceHeight and setHeight? do you really need to set both?
