# CustomDrawOntoCanvasCallback

class `cee.mrk.``CustomDrawOntoCanvasCallback`()

  A callback function that can be used to draw custom content onto a label.

  Use this callback to override how labels are drawn. This gives you total freedom to draw any type of label. In the callback you need to resize the canvas to a size that suits your needs, and draw any text or other content onto the canvas. The label text is passed as input, but this text can be a custom markup language to control the layout of the label.

  If you return if you did the drawing, return false to let the label be drawn as usual.

  Example:

      function myCustomDrawOntoCanvasFunction(canvas: HTMLCanvasElement, ctx: CanvasRenderingContext2D, text:string): boolean {
         canvas.width = 500;
         canvas.height = 150;
         const gradient = ctx.createLinearGradient(0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height);
         gradient.addColorStop(0, "red");
         gradient.addColorStop(0.17, "orange");
         gradient.addColorStop(0.33, "yellow");
         gradient.addColorStop(0.5, "green");
         gradient.addColorStop(0.666, "blue");
         gradient.addColorStop(1, "violet");

         // Set the fill style and draw a rectangle
         ctx.fillStyle = gradient;
         ctx.fillRect(0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height);

         ctx.font = "20px Comic Sans MS";
         ctx.fillStyle = "red";
         ctx.fillText(text, 50, 75);

         return true;
      }

      myLabelPart.setCustomDrawOntoCanvasCallback(myCustomDrawOntoCanvasFunction);
