title: How to show rich html on canvas with Konva layout: demo_page​

How to show complex styles (like bold) and enable rich text editing features?​

Canvas's text API is very limited. Konva.Text allows you to add many different styles, support multiline text, etc. But at the current moment it has limitations. You can't use different styles for different parts of Konva.Text. For that case you have to use several Konva.Text instances.

If you want show complex styles on canvas we can do a hacky workaround. The idea is simple:

  1. Create DOM element and put styled text in it
  2. Convert DOM element into image with html2canvas.
  3. Use that image for Konva.Image.
