10,821 PointsCan not set strokeStype
Hi,
I almost can practice this course, except last action to set strokeStyle = color My mouse received only 'red' line.
// Problem: No user interaction causes no change to application
// Solution: When user interacts cause changes appropriately
var color = $(".selected").css("background-color");
var $canvas = $("canvas");
var context = $("canvas")[0].getContext("2d");
var lastEvent;
var mouseDown = false;
// When clicking on control list item
$(".controls").on("click", "li", function() {
// Deselect sibling elements
$(this).siblings().removeClass("selected");
// Select clicked item
$(this).addClass("selected");
//cache current color
color = $(this),css("background-color");
});
// When 'new color' is pressed
$("#revealColorSelect").click(function() {
// Show color select or hide the color select
changeColor();
$("#colorSelect").toggle();
});
// Update the new color span #newColor
function changeColor() {
var r = $("#red").val();
var g = $("#green").val();
var b = $("#blue").val();
$("#newColor").css("background-color", "rgb(" + r + "," + g + "," + b + ")");
}
// When color sliders change
$("input[type=range]").change(changeColor);
// When 'new color' is pressed
$("#addNewColor").click(function() {
// Append the color to the controls ul
var $newColor = $("<li></li>");
$newColor.css("background-color", $("#newColor").css("background-color"));
$(".controls ul").append($newColor);
// Select the new color
$newColor.click();
});
// On mouse event on the canvas
$canvas.mousedown(function(e){
lastEvent = e;
mouseDown = true;
}).mousemove(function(e){
// document.getElementsByTagName("canvas")[0]
// Draw lines
if(mouseDown) {
context.beginPath();
context.moveTo(lastEvent.offsetX, lastEvent.offsetY);
context.lineTo(e.offsetX, e.offsetY);
context.strokeStyle = color;
context.stroke();
lastEvent = e;
}
}).mouseup(function(){
mouseDown = false;
});

See here -
color = $(this),css("background-color");
