    Interface OffscreenCanvas

    When using the element or the Canvas API, rendering, animation, and user interaction usually happen on the main execution thread of a web application. The computation relating to canvas animations and rendering can have a significant impact on application performance.

    Properties

    height: number

    The height property returns and sets the height of an OffscreenCanvas object.

    MDN Reference

    oncontextlost: ((this: OffscreenCanvas, ev: Event) => any) | null
    oncontextrestored: ((this: OffscreenCanvas, ev: Event) => any) | null
    width: number

    The width property returns and sets the width of an OffscreenCanvas object.

    MDN Reference

    Methods

    • The dispatchEvent() method of the EventTarget sends an Event to the object, (synchronously) invoking the affected event listeners in the appropriate order. The normal event processing rules (including the capturing and optional bubbling phase) also apply to events dispatched manually with dispatchEvent().

      Parameters

      Returns boolean

    • The OffscreenCanvas.transferToImageBitmap() method creates an ImageBitmap object from the most recently rendered image of the OffscreenCanvas. The OffscreenCanvas allocates a new image for its subsequent rendering.

      Returns ImageBitmap
