For making Photo Collage Maker, I use fabric js which has an object-based clipping feature. This feature is great but the image inside that clipping region cannot be scaled,
As I tested all fiddles above they have one bug. It is when you will flip X and Y values together, clipping boundaries will be wrong. Also, in order not doing all calculations for placing images into the right position, you need to specify originX='center' and originY='center' for them.
Here is a clipping function update to original code from @natchiketa
var clipByName = function (ctx) {
var clipRect = findByClipName(this.clipName);
var scaleXTo1 = (1 / this.scaleX);
var scaleYTo1 = (1 / this.scaleY);
ctx.save();
ctx.translate(0,0);
//logic for correct scaling
if (this.getFlipY() && !this.getFlipX()){
ctx.scale(scaleXTo1, -scaleYTo1);
} else if (this.getFlipX() && !this.getFlipY()){
ctx.scale(-scaleXTo1, scaleYTo1);
} else if (this.getFlipX() && this.getFlipY()){
ctx.scale(-scaleXTo1, -scaleYTo1);
} else {
ctx.scale(scaleXTo1, scaleYTo1);
}
//IMPORTANT!!! do rotation after scaling
ctx.rotate(degToRad(this.angle * -1));
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.rect(
clipRect.left - this.left,
clipRect.top - this.top,
clipRect.width,
clipRect.height
);
ctx.closePath();
ctx.restore();
}
