HTML5 Canvas animation effect demonstration
Main idea:
First, prepare a picture with consecutive frames, and then use the draw method of HTML5 Canvas to draw different frames at different time
intervals, so that it looks like the animation is playing.
Key technical points:
The JavaScript function setTimeout() has two parameters. The first one is that the parameter can Pass a JavaScript method,
The other parameter represents the interval, in milliseconds. Code example:
setTimeout(update, 1000/30);
Canvas API-drawImage() method, all 9 need to be specified Parameters:
ctx.drawImage(myImage, offw, offh, width,height, x2, y2, width, height);
where offw, offh refer to the starting coordinate point of the source image, width, height represent the width and height of the source image, x2, y2 represent the starting point of the source image on the target Canvas Coordinate points.
The effect achieved by a 22-frame wild goose flying picture:
