Canvas v5 API Additions

While not in any sort of sexy blog-post format, Ian Hickson has posted a list of additions to the Canvas V5 API on the whatwtg mailing list.

Some nice looking features like:

  • Path Primitives
  • Ellipses (no more path arc junk)
  • Dashed lines
  • Text on a path
  • Hit Testing (Yay!)

These, of course, are in the API, which doesn’t mean that they are available in any browser whatsoever, but should be coming down the pipe at some point soon.
