Surface.positionElementAtPageLocation() method
Positions a DOM element at the apparent canvas location corresponding to the given page location. This is not intended for use with elements the surface is managing: it is designed to be used with elements such as pop-ups that you may wish to position relative to the content in your canvas.
Signature:
positionElementAtPageLocation(el: Element, x: number, y: number, xShift?: number, yShift?: number): void;
Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| el | Element | Element to position. |
| x | number | X location on canvas to move element's left edge to. |
| y | number | Y location on canvas to move element's top edge to. |
| xShift | number | Optional absolute number of pixels to shift the element by in the x axis after calculating its position relative to the canvas. Typically you'd use this to place something other than the top left corner of your element at the desired location. |
| yShift | number | Optional absolute number of pixels to shift the element by in the y axis after calculating its position relative to the canvas. |
Returns:
void
