i want to manually trigger *select object on the canvas event * – the same event that fires when a mouse click was made within an object area, and the object become selected – the controls become visible.
so in other words, i want to show controls for a specified object on the canvas MANUALLY, without user/mouse interaction. any help ?
solution was found in the docs.
if someone looking for the answer –
how the solution was found:
i understood that the wrong thinking was to look after the event that precedes the ‘object:selected’, but there is no such event !!! so i realized that all what i had to do is just look in the code for
'object:selected'and that’s how i found which method fires it … also it is well documented here, in docs .suggestion: would be great to note about it in the articles – next to
getActiveObject / Group. currently it appears only here – http://fabricjs.com/customization/anyway, cangax and others participators – like very much your work !
thanks
