html5 - canvas element - Multiple layers
Without any extension library, is it possible to have multiple layers in the same canvas element? So if I do a clearRect on the top layer, it will not erase the bottom one? Thanks. No, however, you could layer multiple <canvas> elements on top of each other and accomplish something similar. <div style="position: relative;"> <canvas id="layer1" width="100" height="100" style="position: absolute; left: 0; top: 0; z-index: 0;"></canvas> <canvas id="layer2" width="100" height="100" style="position: absolute; left: 0; top: 0; z-index: 1;"></canvas> </div> Draw your first layer on the layer1 canvas,
